   Former first lady Melania Trump fired back at a historian who criticized   
   the renovations she made to the White House Rose Garden last year, calling   
   his remarks “misleading” and “dishonorable” before questioning his   
   credibility.   
      
   “.@BeschlossDC has proven his ignorance by showing a picture of the Rose   
   Garden in its infancy. The Rose Garden is graced with a healthy & colorful   
   blossoming of roses. His misleading information is dishonorable & he   
   should never be trusted as a professional historian,” the former first   
   lady's office tweeted on Sunday.

   Evisceration of White House Rose Garden was completed a year ago this   
   month, and here was the grim result—decades of American history made to   
   disappear:        @dougmillsnyt

   The message was in response to a tweet from Michael Beschloss,   
   presidential historian for NBC News and a frequent critic of former   
   President Trump, who said that the “evisceration” of the White House Rose   
   Garden was finished a year ago this month.   
      
   “And here was the grim result — decades of American history made to   
   disappear,” Beschloss wrote.   
      
   The Trump White House revealed the newly renovated Rose Garden, which was   
   spearheaded by the then-first lady, last August. Her office said she   
   wanted to make the area more closely resemble the original 1962 design by   
   Rachel Lambert Mellon during the Kennedy administration.   
      
   The changes sparked criticism among many who attacked the historic   
   garden’s new look.

   this iconic & truly gorgeous space.

   A petition surfaced in April, which has received more than 80,000   
   signatures, calling for first lady Jill Biden and second gentleman Doug   
   Emhoff to reverse the changes to the Rose Garden.   
      
   “We want Jill Biden and Doug Emhoff to take this on and restore the Rose   
   Garden to [former first lady Jackie Kennedy's] original design,” the   
   Change.org petition said.   
      
   The petition argued that the renovations made by the Trump administration   
   “ripped away” Kennedy’s legacy. Biden and Emhoff have not responded to the   
   petition.
