Chelsea Clinton's Post Defending Barron Trump Also Throws Shade at the President

Recently, 10-year-old Barron Trump was the victim of cyberbullying at the hands of Saturday Night Live writer Katie Rich. In a now-deleted Tweet, Rich joked that Barron would be the first "homeschool shooter." Chelsea Clinton posted a defense of the child on Facebook.

While Clinton made sure to call for the end of criticism of an innocent child, she also encouraged her followers to oppose policies from President Donald Trump that in her eyes are not in the best interests for children. "Barron Trump deserves the chance every child does — to be a kid. Standing up for every kid also means opposing POTUS policies that hurt kids," Clinton wrote in the post.

As a child of a former president, Chelsea Clinton grew up being criticized in the media. It makes sense that she, now a mom herself, would not want the same for other children.
