Melania Trump makes waves with 'storm stilettos,' FLOTUS hat

First Lady Melania Trump is making waves... for her flood fashion.

The former model is always elegantly turned out and perfectly coiffed, and Tuesday was no exception as she left the White House with her president husband for storm-ravaged Texas.

Trump was photographed walking across the White House lawn in sky-high stiletto pumps, part of an outfit that included tailored capri pants, an army green bomber jacket with ruched sleeves and aviator sunglasses.

"Melania over here looking like Flood Watch Barbie," writer Maria Del Russo tweeted.

Television writer-producer Brad Wollack quipped: "Help is on the way, Texas! Don't worry, Melania has her special storm stilettos."

Added comedian Jessica Kirson: "Brilliant idea @FLOTUS. You can pick up debris with your heels."

President Donald Trump's outfit was more in line with what politicians normally wear to visit weary survivors of deadly natural disasters: a black hooded rain jacket, khaki trousers and brown boots.

A wide swath of Texas is reeling from monster storm Harvey, which has devastated coastal communities and left large parts of Houston -- America's fourth largest city -- underwater.

Tens of thousands of people are packed into overcrowded shelters as authorities continue to pluck victims from rooftops.

The first lady changed into something a bit more disaster-appropriate on the flight to the hard-hit coastal city of Corpus Christi -- the Trumps' first stop in Texas.

She stepped off Air Force One wearing black trousers and a white button up shirt, trading the stilettos for white tennis shoes.

She also wore a black baseball cap that read "FLOTUS," or the abbreviation for First Lady of the United States, setting off another round of Melania-bashing on Twitter.

At day's end, the first lady issued a statement hailing the "strength and resilience" of Texans.

"I want to be able to offer my help and support in the most productive way possible, not through just words, but also action," she said.

"My thoughts and prayers continue to be with the people of Texas and Louisiana."

What's the reasoning behind the Leftists' HATRED for our FLOTUS? She's a friggin' IMMIGRANT from a Turd World Country that we're all taught in Publik Skrewel to EMBRACE! What? She's not the RIGHT type of immigrant? Oh, that's right - we only want rapists and pedophiles and, 'former goat herders' that have Honor Killed their Mom and Sisters and will suck off of Mother Government's TEAT and vote Democrat to keep the FREEBIES coming that We The People PAY FOR!

Fine. My grammar ain't perfect, but you KNOW what I'm talkin' 'bout, Willis!

Melania is a beautiful person, before during and after the presidency of her husband Donald Trump, despite the petty sniping and hate-filled comments of the left.

100 times finer than that shrill harridan posing as a human, Hillary Clinton.

Isn’t it odd that the same media types that bash Melania Trump, Sarah Palin and Nancy Reagan for wearing expensive clothing lavished praise on Jackie Kennedy for doing the same thing?

The facts are:

She allowed them to show what they are.

That beautiful lady set a trap and without saying one word allowed them to make fools of themselves.

That is class.

No matter what she does, she’ll be condemned.

No matter what she does, those who love America will love her.

I think it’s wonderful to have a classy, beautiful lady like Melania as FlOTUS. Think back, old lady fat Bush, Cankles, A librarian and Magilla. Now we have class and beauty.

They just cannot help themselves. Keep on alienating your audiences, people!

Boycott Hollywood.

Her choice of shoes is mildly humorous...

...but they’re wet. Those who are criticizing her are wearing dry shoes. If I’m a Texan, I’ll take wet stilettos over any other dry shoes any day of the weeks. Those who are wearing dry shoes and criticizing her from their ivory towers in the East are despicable...and a bit unhinged.

Look at her heart, not at her shoes.

It’s illegal to beat the #### out of someone from Television even if they’re HUGE @@@holes, right?

Not if you call them white supremacists first!

I read the media was also complaining about Trump’s USA cap. They are frigging loons.

In her way, Melania is letting all the whiny liberals know that she is the Alpha female.

I don’t care what she wears, she always looks “marvelous” and raises spirits wherever she is.
