You’re definitely using liberal tactics and it makes me wonder if you really are a conservative at all.” Roberts sparked the social media storm on Monday afternoon after replying to a tweet from Charlie Kirk, president of the right-wing youth organization Turning Point USA. Kirk had compared Melania’s staff numbers to those of former first lady Michelle Obama. “Did you know: There are thirty-nine fewer staffers dedicated to The First Lady of the United States (FLOTUS) than under Obama,” Kirk tweeted, referencing data reported in January. “There are only five staffers dedicated to Melania Trump vs. forty-four staffers who served Michelle Obama,” he said.
