Louise Linton, the wife of US Treasury secretary Steve Mnuchin posted a photo on Instagram that apparently got some unwelcome attention on Monday night.
The photo shows Linton and Mnuchin stepping off of a government jet in Kentucky, with a caption that read, "Great day trip to Kentucky! #nicest #people #beautiful #country #usa."
Linton, a 36-year-old actress who married Mnuchin in an extravagant June wedding ceremony, tagged several high-end designers like Tom Ford, Hermès, Ronald Mouret, and Valentino in her Instagram post.
The comments, however, were less than charitable.
One person wrote, "Glad we could pay for your little getaway #deplorable."
Linton replied:
Linton then made her Instagram account private. Mnuchin was in Louisville on Monday advocating for a congressional tax-code overhaul, The Washington Post reported.
The former Goldman Sachs executive was cajoled last week by hundreds of his former Yale classmates from the class of 1985, who signed a letter urging him to resign from the Trump administration in protest of the president's remarks about a white supremacist rally in Charlottesville, Virginia.
