First Lady Melania Trump was greeted with a chorus of boos from a large group of children on Tuesday when she was introduced to give a speech at the B’More Youth Summit on Opioid Awareness in Baltimore, Maryland.

The crowd, which already appeared somewhat restless, broke out into loud jeers (and a mix of cheers) when Mrs. Trump took the stage ahead of her speech.

After he lectured the crowd for a bit, Mrs. Trump took to the podium to deliver her prepared remarks, only to experience more sporadic booing and a general hum of commotion.

The harsh reception that the first lady received in Baltimore, even from children, comes after her husband President Donald Trump’s repeated description of the city as a rat-infested hellhole.
