Melania pets an elephant, kinda

Whoops! Orphaned Elephant Jostles Melania Trump | NBC News

Like other members of the Trump family, Melania is also not good at petting elephants.

Via Newsweek:

First lady Melania Trump got friendly with some baby elephants in Kenya on Friday—and one of the youngsters responded by giving her a shove.

The episode occurred when the first lady stepped forward toward a baby elephant at the David Sheldrick Wildlife Trust elephant orphanage. An elephant behind it appeared to nudge and cause the elephant closest to Trump to run toward her and push her backward.

Two people who appeared to be Secret Service agents quickly put their hands on Trump for support. The first lady did not appear to have been injured, smiled and stood back.
