Actually, she gets attacked for her lack of clothing choices...

We don't even know if Melania ever spoke out against separating children from their parents, do we? Was that just another lie from Trump?

Either way -- BIG MISTAKE.
Her spokesperson clearly DID say she just grabbed it and it meant nothing. From your own link on the first page:

"It's a jacket. There was no hidden message. After today's important visit to Texas, I hope the media isn't going to choose to focus on her wardrobe," Grisham said.
Therefore yes - what you are doing is assuming a hidden message.

IMO, Trump's excuse is lame and reeks of desperation.

Melania Trump Addresses Controversial Immigration Crackdown | Time

Four days ago. She stopped short of criticizing the actual policy but the statement was clear she did not agree with what is going on.

Why would Melania buy a jacket for $39 in the first place? To wear it today makes her an idiot.

She spoke out against what was happening 4 days ago, before Trump decided to do anything and when his entire camp was still cheering the efforts on.

She is the only person from the actual administration to visit any facility holding kids. She is the only person who has stated she wishes to assist in reuniting the families. She is the only person who made any effort at all to show any kind of support to the immigrants at all.

" according to a statement from her office." When I hear Melania say the words herself, I will believe it.
