Chelsea Handler unfairly attacked Melania, but couldn’t guess what followed…

The comedian hadn't done her homework...

Newsroom January 27 08:35

Chelsea Handler took a swipe at Melania Trump saying she wouldn’t interview the First Lady because “she can barely speak English“.
The American comedian, who does not hold a college degree, went out of line when she attacked the First Lady for her English accent, before trying to be funny with obscenities against the Presidential couple…

For the record the First Lady speaks five languages, English, French, Italian, German and Slovene.

Chelsea’s “joke”, however, backfired as the public didn’t find it funny at all, but rather inappropriate. Many commented on the social media condemning the comedian in their own special way.

But if that was not enough, the Trump’s family lawyer Michael Cohen answered back in a very painful way for Chelsea Handler hitting bullseye:
“Shame on Chelsea Handler for attacking our first lady in such a despicable manner, Don’t be fooled by her accent. Melania is bright and articulate. To be clear, our first lady speaks multiple languages, I believe five. How many languages do you speak, Chelsea?”
OUCH!…
