Melania Trump met with social media company and tech executives Tuesday as part of her mission to tackle cyberbullying.
“It was a very productive meeting on cyber safety & how to teach our children to be responsible digital citizens,” the first lady tweeted.
The irony of her post did not go unnoticed, however.

Many tweeters called the first lady out for not first confronting her renowned cyberbully husband, President Donald Trump, over his online behavior.
Here’s a sampling of the responses:
Teach the man you live with

Maybe you should start by teaching your bully of a husband @realDonaldTrump not to insult everyone he comes in contact with. How can you be an advocate for cyber bullying when the president is the biggest bully ever?...ESPECIALLY ON TWITTER! pic.twitter.com/bs512yZPwF

Did you just show them slides of your husbands Tweets and say, "Don't do this"?#FollowMeForSnarkyShenanigans

Shameful, disgraceful...start at home Melania. This is complete hypocrisy.

You always tweet as though you've never met your husband.

Shame on you. I notice you're not using the word cyber bullying because you know this is a travesty, Melania. Your husband is the king of bullying on social media! Did he bully you to talk about this today?? pic.twitter.com/ZZlgFfogfj

This is null and void if she doesn't publicly call @POTUS @realDonaldTrump out for bullying! @FLOTUS

Come on Melania! Seriously?
— YoyoValdez (@Yoyosvaldez) March 20, 2018

— Dara Nelson (@Energeee) March 20, 2018
