Melania Trump would have you believe she can't catch a break. But never forget: She's still a Trump, and lies come with the territory.

The First Lady exposed yet another Trump lie to the world on Friday night. In June, in the midst of significant public and political blowback over immigrant families being separated at the U.S. border, Melania wore a jacket bearing the spray-painted words: "I don't really care, do u?"

Making matters worse, First Lady Trump was on her way to visit detained kids in Texas at the time.

It was a boneheadedly tone deaf sentiment to express at that moment, but the First Lady's office defended her fashion choices, claiming that it was "just a jacket." Now we know better, thanks to Trump herself.

During a sitdown with ABC News on Friday, Trump revealed that the jacket wasmeant to carry a message, but that message wasn't aimed at detained children. For those keeping score at home: The jacket was still tone deaf, but now we know that "just a jacket" explanation was actually just a lie.

After pondering whether or not she would have gotten the media coverage she did if she hadn't worn the jacket (huh?), Melania contends "it's obvious, I didn't wear the jacket for the children."

She continued: "I wore the jacket to go on the plane, and off the plane. And it was for the people and for the left-wing media who are criticizing me. And I want to show them that I don't care. You could criticize whatever you wanna say ... but it will not stop me [from doing] what I feel is right."

Following up, ABC's Tom Llamas asked Melania: "So you weresending a message with the jacket?"

Melania agreed. "It was kind of a message, yes."

The revelation, while it won't be particularly surprising to some, has not been met with enthusiasm on social media. Melania claims she wants people to focus on what she's doing instead of what she's wearing, but -- as the ABC interview exposed -- what she's doing involves, at least in part, lying to the American public when it's politically helpful to do so.
