Discussion: Clinton Takes Swipe At Trump's 'Half-Baked' Maternity Leave Plan

Shorter Ivanka: Afterall, I am my father’s daughter.

Good Lord. I can see Ivanka takes after her dad.

Puts out a half-baked, poorly thought out “plan”. And when called out on its weaknesses, doubles down, attacks the interviewer, fails to apologize, and doesn’t care to improve it.

Makes me think the agenda is not to improve the lives of working Americans, but merely to get credit for a “policy idea”.

Sad.

Think about this: If Trump actually manages to get elected, his family will be his kitchen cabinet (if not actual Cabinet)!

She [Ivanka Trump] hit back at her critics and at Cosmopolitan Thursday on Twitter

Takes after her dad who also during an actual live person-to-person exchange can’t think quick enough to answer softball questions or even describe their supposed well thought out plans, so they result to a twitter response.

I just saw this campaign email by President O. I’m so glad he said this at this timing when she is back on the campaign trail.

[me :)]–

Most of the time, I try not to worry about the daily push and pull of
political pundits, but after the past few weeks, it’s worth saying
something about the way this election has been covered.

There’s been too much false equivalency and too clear of a double
standard at play. So I want to take a minute to compare these two
candidates, side by side.

While Hillary was fighting school segregation in the South, Donald Trump was sued for discriminating against people of color.

While Hillary has released every single tax return from the past few
decades, Trump has provided next to nothing about his financial
situation.

While Hillary was fighting for first responders after tragedy struck on
September 11th, 2001, Trump was bragging that his building was now the
tallest in all of Manhattan.

And while Hillary’s foundation has saved countless lives around the
globe, Donald Trump has used money people have given his so-called
charity to buy a six-foot-tall painting – of himself.

[me], this is a man who utters things on a daily basis that would
disqualify any other candidate. But because he says something outrageous
or nonsensical every time he steps up to a podium, he gets a pass.

And the only way that will change is if we do something about it
– which means rolling up our sleeves and working as hard as possible
to elect Hillary come November.

[and fundraising part]

Let’s get busy. Let’s get to work.

Thank you, [me],
Barack

“Keep the focus where it belongs—advocating change.”

And stop asking annoying questions about whether the change I advocate is discriminatory and if it is actually a benefit to anybody other than the 1%.

How surprising that Ivanka’s extensive experience in the real world of struggling to make ends meet on a tight budget while balancing work and family somehow didn’t prepare her to recognize the glaring shortcomings of her “plan.” So very, very surprising.

Ivanka Trump had taken heat

Genuine question – has she, really, outside the liberal circle? I was assuming largely she’d get another pass.

Isn’t almost exactly what she said in the interview? That her dad should be celebrated for putting an idea out there?

Au contraire, Madame President, you can be assured that anything Donnie comes up with as a policy is not half-baked, it’s fully baked.

I’m mean Gary Johnson level baked…

She will, most of the media will likely just not even mention it, they are to busy repeating some BS attacking Hillary or talking process BS.

Well, that’s what I thought. And we know, Chelsea wouldn’t if she had done the same.

HRC: “We don’t need a president who apparently thinks only married people deserve paid leave and only mothers ever stay home with the kids.”

Trump’s detailed plan for modern American motherhood:

Trump doesn’t change diapers…

“No, I don’t do that. There’s a lot of women out there that demand that the husband act like the wife and you know there’s a lot of husbands that listen to that.”

…or really do anything hands-on to care for his kids.

“I’ll supply funds and she’ll take care of the kids. It’s not like I’m gonna be walking the kids down Central Park.”

It’s a winner!

The campaign email I got today has to do with congratulating Mitch for six months of not doing his job regarding Judge Garland’s nomination. I have read, though, there may be some action in the lame duck session, that is, between Hill’s win and the new session of Congress because even now the GOOPs see defeat raising its head no matter what talking heads say.

Some people are saying, and I read it somewhere that this is Donnies Drumpf’s secret maternity plan…

Maybe liberals will finally stop fawning over Ivanka. Her answers to the questions about maternity leave for gay couples shows that she is homophobic. I was shocked at how dismissive she was of gay parents.
