Fox News commentator Jessica Tarlov sparked controversy with her remarks about Karen Pence seemingly avoiding Melania Trump at Jimmy Carter’s funeral. On *The Five*, Tarlov called it one of her “favorite moments,” referencing the apparent snub where Karen Pence avoided eye contact with Melania.
Melania, however, remained composed, smiling gracefully despite the incident. The moment reignited discussions about the strained relationship between the Trumps and Pences, which has been tense since the Capitol riot on January 6, 2021.
Tarlov’s comments drew mixed reactions online. Supporters praised her honesty, while critics accused her of politicizing a solemn event. The incident highlights lingering divisions within Republican circles and broader political tensions.
