It is no accident that the Obamas showed up in Italy this week at the same time President Trump’s and the First Lady’s scheduled trip to Rome – the third leg of the Trumps’ first foreign trip in the White House.

Freedom Daily reported that the Obamas kept their plans to travel to Italy under wraps until the last possible minute hoping to steal the spotlight and garner wider attention from the press.

“On Friday, the former president and first lady touched down at Grosseto Air Base in Tuscany, their private jet accompanied by six Eurofighter Fourth Wing jets,” according to the Daily Mail. “The Obamas, who have been on multiple vacations since leaving the White House in January, will reportedly visit Florence and Siena during their vacation. They are expected to fly out on May 25.”

On the day the Trumps were scheduled to arrive, the Obamas garnered the attention of the paparazzi with pictures showcasing Michelle wearing a provocatively off the shoulder blouse while visiting a Catholic Cathedral.

This immediately backfired when Michelle was widely panned in the Italian media for violating the church’s dress code with her ridiculous outfit. After this little stunt, the media stopped reporting on Michelle and instead chose to focus on Melania, who was the epitome of conservative grace and elegance when she met with Pope Francis.
