More recently, nude photos of Melania Trump's modeling days resurfaced, kickstarting a wave of speculative reports regarding the source of the leaked images. But the nude photos tipped off yet another wave of criticism — one that has nothing to do with Melania's husband, nor his economically catastrophic policies or ever-shifting rhetoric on immigration.

Instead, the left-leaning media is obsessed with an aspect of Melania's life usually championed by liberals: her immigrant status.

In an article for the progressive outlet, AlterNet — a news magazine that takes pride in being a source that hopes to "inspire action and advocacy on the environment, human rights and civil liberties, social justice" and more — author Elizabeth Preza dissects Melania's comments concerning her immigration status over the years, drawing from investigations carried out by other news organizations.
