Media ignore Jill Biden's heels at hurricane site after blasting Melania Trump in 2017

Several media outlets criticized Melania Trump’s fashion choice in 2017 when she left to go visit victims of a hurricane, however the same media outlets neglected to mention First Lady Jill Biden’s similar fashion choice during her post-Hurricane Ian Florida visit on Wednesday.

Both President Biden and his wife were photographed leaving for Florida to meet with Gov. Ron DeSantis, R-Fla., about ongoing recovery efforts following the Category 4 hurricane hitting the state. One detail some noticed in both Jill Biden’s departure and arrival photo was her choice to wear heels while visiting.

Though journalists promoted the photos of the First Lady, none referenced her heels in their reports on the Bidens’ visit, which appeared to be a stark departure from their treatment of former First Lady Melania Trump.

In 2017, Melania Trump grabbed headlines after photos featured her departing to visit Texas after the devastation of Hurricane Harvey while wearing heels.

The New York Times described her look with the headline "Melania Trump, Off to Texas, Finds Herself on Thin Heels." Vogue wrote, "Melania Trump’s Hurricane Stilettos, and the White House’s Continual Failure to Understand Optics." The Washington Post also attacked the former First Lady’s wardrobe claiming she "offered up a fashion moment instead of an expression of empathy."

Reports later noted that Melania Trump removed her high heels and changed to a pair of sneakers after arriving in Texas. By contrast, Jill Biden appeared to wear the same heels throughout the trip.

These outlets along, with many others, did not criticize or even reference Jill Biden’s heels in reporting the president’s arrival.

The issue is never the issue; the issue is always the revolution.

Ignoring Dr. Jill Biden. All in on that! Matter of fact,
wouldn’t mind if more of us did paint her out of the picture.
Nothing there to be admired.

Has there even been a single negative story about Jill in two years?

Not by the liberal media. Not even Jill calling Mexicans "little tacos" bothered the liberal media. Just imagine if Melania had said that.

She has to wear shoes that will keep her up and put of the yuckiness.

Her designer Birkenstocks weren’t up to the task.

What sane person would expect the wife of “the leader of the free world” to dig around in hurricane rubble or walk through it unless there wasn’t another able bodied person? That’s not role modeling, that’s stupidity.
