Chelsea Clinton defends Barron Trump after conservative website bashes his clothes

32. It started well before then

Amy Carter was attacked when she was about Bannon's age (and Chelsea's when she entered the White House.) I vaguely remember some criticism of the Johnson and Nixon daughters. I assume that history would show it existed earlier. (It might have increased as the media became increasingly more celebrity oriented rather than issue oriented. )

It's also not just the US. Though not exactly the same, I remember a British teen magazine I subscribed to in the 1960s bashing how Princess Ann dressed and looked contrasting with swinging London. ( I know the royal family does not govern, but it may be that as we have no "royal family", the First Family, as it is called, essentially becomes that in the media. )

It is fantastic that Chelsea, one of the few people who experienced this at a young age, is speaaking out.
