First Lady Melania Trump was excited about a new project at the White House, so she took to Twitter.
&#8220;I am excited to share the progress of the Tennis Pavillion at @WhiteHouse. Thank you to the talented team for their hard work and dedication,&#8221; she wrote on Thursday.

In the photo, Trump is wearing a hard hat and looking over what appear to be architectural plans for the pavilion, which will be located on the South Lawn of the White House and serve as a &#8220;place to gather and spend leisure time for First Families.&#8221; No taxpayer money is being used to fund the project, the White House says.
Cue the haters.
&#8220;This is the most extraordinary thing to tweet in the midst of an epidemic. You really are amazingly out of touch with real live people,&#8221; one person on Twitter wrote.

Former movie star Mia Farrow joined in the first lady-bashing.
&#8220;29 people were killed by a tornado in Tennessee, the world is shuddering as a pandemic expands and what is a tennis pavilion?&#8221; she wrote.

Another compared the U.S. first lady to Marie Antoinette, who renovated the Palace of Versailles while commoners suffered.
&#8220;Even Marie Antoinette would NOT have built private tennis courts during the outbreak of a plague! #BeBest #coronavirus,&#8221; wrote one incensed twitterer.

Many posted nude photos of the former model (for some reason).
&#8220;Tennis anyone? We&#8217;re in a pandemic and she&#8217;s working on a tennis court. Can these people be any more out of touch with regular people? Face with rolling eyes,&#8221; wrote another.

Wrote another: &#8220;How about setting up a medical pavilion where work can be done on getting out the vaccines for Coronavirus? BeBest. Tennis won’t wipe out this virus that is affecting so many.&#8221;

&#8220;Work? We barely see you doing anything. Your BeBest is a joke considering the @POTUS is the worst offender. Why does the White House need a tennis pavilion? Obviously your husband is not physically active except for golf which is not exactly exhausting,&#8221; wrote another.

Another said President Trump is senile.
&#8220;We have been. We&#8217;ve been doing that while you&#8217;ve been dressing up in costumes, flashing your &#8216;assets&#8217; at Independence Day functions and double billing the American taxpayers. Do the country a real service and get some mental health care for your senile husband.&#8221;

Others took to Twitter to defend the first lady.
&#8220;As I read all the responses from you nasty trolls, I realize that you all lead such empty, selfish lives you could not possibly give a positive response if you wanted to. Empty ppl respond the way you do. Melanie is one of the very best @FLOTUS this nation has ever had.&#8221;
https://twitter.com/Midmonana/status/1236669035242074113
Even Hillary Clinton took a swipe at the first lady, saying of her Melania’s &#8220;Be Best&#8221; anti-bullying campaign, &#8220;&#8216;I think she should look closer to home.&#8221;
Eventually, the first lady had had enough.
&#8220;I encourage everyone who chooses to be negative &amp; question my work at the @WhiteHouse to take time and contribute something good &amp; productive in their own communities. #BeBest,&#8221; she tweeted.
