Melania Trump on Saturday was accused of living in an "alternate reality" after she bragged that her new documentary, which has reportedly struggled in sales, is "#1" and is "loved by all."
The Guardian sent a writer to watch the documentary, Melania, at the busiest movie theater in Times Square, the day of its release. He joined just 12 people in the audience. And they were far from blown away, according to the outlet's reporting.
But that didn't stop the first lady from bragging about her film being universally loved.
"MELANIA, the film. #1 Highest Opening In 10 Yrs (Doc) Loved By All - 'A' CinemaScore," she wrote on Saturday.
The pushback from observers came within mere minutes.
Columnist Jackie Calmes replied with, "Alternate reality."
Ex-GOP insider Jeff Timmer simply wrote, "lol."
Stand-up comedian Ryan Cullen responded writing, "ooft. You can tell Donald didn't wanna retweet this. Nightmare."
Journalist Fredrik Græsvik added, "The First Lady is just as detached from reality as the president. What in the world is wrong with people?"
A number of users simply posted the film's 6% score on Rotten Tomatoes.
