Francesa wasn’t a fan of Melania’s hat.
“Melania is beautiful. She has great clothes. She’s a beautiful woman. I didn’t like her hat,” he said on his podcast. “And I generally like hats, on women, especially on someone as elegant as her. I didn’t like her hat at all. It was very strange. I just didn’t like her hat.”
The president even had difficulty managing his wife’s hat. When they entered the Capitol rotunda, he was seen trying to give her a kiss on the cheek, but it appeared the hat slightly blocked his attempt.
