The 2020 Republican National Convention has been a parade of absurdity whose dystopian horrors the internet has responded to the way it does best: Turning the whole thing into a big joke. Seemingly unconcerned with that (and ignoring precedent), Melania Trump decided to cap off the event last night by wearing a lime green dress whose color all but begged to be used as a background for image edits.
While there are plenty of obvious Photoshops that just put Joe Biden’s face on the dress, the more creative corners of the internet used Melania as a palette for criticisms of the Trump White House. We have Melania wearing a KKK rally in one and, in another, her outfit displays American coronavirus death statistics.
