The brother of a couple who was fatally shot in El Paso, Texas, over the weekend has defended a photo the president and first lady took with the couple’s 2-month-old orphan during their visit to an El Paso hospital on Aug. 7.
The photo in question, which was shared on Melania Trump’s Twitter account on Aug. 8, shows the first lady holding the infant while President Donald Trump stood next to her with a smile and thumbs up. The post was captioned: “I met many incredible people in Dayton, Ohio & El Paso, Texas yesterday. Their communities are strong and unbreakable. @potus and I stand with you!”
