The first lady issued a statement questioning Griffin's mental health. NBC News tweeted out the statement on Wednesday.

"As a mother, a wife, and a human being, that photo is very disturbing," Trump said. "When you consider some of the atrocities happening in the world today, a photo opportunity like this is simply wrong and makes you wonder about the mental health of the person who did it."
