Porizkova clarified in the caption, “YES, I meant ‘losing’ obviously. Typo. Thanks for all the reminders.#majorityspeaks #congratulations #goodluck.”
People admired her succinct and elegant response to Donald Trump winning a second term as president, with replies like, “Very humble and intelligent comment. I agree with you and am proud of you.”
“You are an exemplary human being,” said another fan, while others chimed in with “Perfectly said!” and “🩵We are strong We have made it through really difficult moments and We will be there for one another now.”
Some fans criticized the end of Porizkova’s message as negative and “unnecessary,” but a different fan said that they felt the message was “Beautifully written, Paulina. Thank you for all that you do.”
