Louise Linton, the wife of Treasury Secretary Steve Mnuchin, snapped back at an Instagram user Monday who insulted her and said she has sacrificed more for America.
“Glad we could pay for your little getaway. #deplorable,” user “jennimiller29” commented on the post.
“Pretty sure the amount we sacrifice per year is a lot more than you’d be willing to sacrifice if the choice was yours. You’re adorably out of touch,” Linton, 36, responded in a comment.
“Did you think this was a personal trip?! Adorable! Do you think the US govt paid for our honeymoon or personal travel?! Lololol. Have you given more to the economy than me and my husband? Either as an individual earner in taxes OR in self sacrifice to your country? I’m pretty sure we paid more taxes toward our day ‘trip’ than you did,” Linton added.
Linton, who married her husband on June 24, also thanked her insulter for the “passive aggressive nasty comment” and said the woman’s children and life look “cute.”
“I know you’re mad, but deep down you’re really nice and so am I. Sending me passive aggressive Instagram comments isn’t going to make life feel better. Maybe a nice message, one filled with wisdom and humanity, would get more traction,” Linton added.
