Who’s going to vacuum our living rooms and clean up after us? Americans don’t like to do that," Ivana Trump told the New York Post.
I know this may come as a shock to people like you, Ivana–money whore immigrants who were able to “get their papers right”–but some of us do this stuff all by ourselves. Oh, and I’m American born and raised.
“She gives the birth in American hospital, which is for free. The child becomes American automatically. She brings the whole family, she doesn’t pay the taxes, she doesn’t have a job, she gets the housing, she gets the food stamps. Who’s paying? You and me.”
This woman is either clueless or just as hateful as her ex-husband. I know she’s bound by her divorce agreement to not disparage her ex, but she could just keep silent … unless she wishes to viewed this way.
“As long as you come here legally and get a proper job . . . we need
immigrants. Who’s going to vacuum our living rooms and clean up after
us? Americans don’t like to do that,” Ivana Trump told the New York Post.
…
Good Gawd Ivana…
She sees herself as entitled as her ex.
Obscene amounts of money can make one see the world that way. they see themselves as better, Much much better than “others”. Consider, her ex has said he’s a member of the “lucky sperm club”.
Both Ivana and her ex would do well to lose their cash and try to get a real job. Let real life slap 'em upside the head.
I’ve been homeless. I know what that’s like.
the truly sad thing is this woman has no concept of anyone cleaning their own house. What’s going to happen when the alimony payments dry up after the Trump “brand” implodes? Poor Ivana. One thing I do have to say in her defense, at least she’s not going the plastic route that Melanoma obviously believes in. Although the 70’s called and they want their hair-do back.
Yup, now that we no longer have slavery, we need immigrants like my dad to replace them in menial jobs for millionaires and billionaires.
Funny tho, my family doctor came to the US as an infant after the communists took over, and I have worked for a number of very successful entrepreneurs in Silicon Valley who were immigrants.

They sure do live in a whole different kind of world, don’t they? I honestly cannot imagine them surviving in our world – they would go insane (and I really mean that) trying to work one or two jobs to pay rent or a mortgage, clothe themselves, afford nutritious food, pay their utilities, taxes (if they make enough). On and on. You’re right – and it would do them right.
On being homeless. I’ve come close but never have been without a place to stay that was either mine (own or rent) or with family. I can only imagine, darrtown. I saw so much of it in San Francisco when I lived there. I got to know some really nice folks. I couldn’t help much, but a blanket here, $20.00 there, a doggie bag with to-go utensils … it can mean something now and then. My first home in The City was in a very well-established neighborhood that had seen boom and then some again and again. When I arrived, it was lower income to middle class. My roommate who owned the building always chased people away from our enclosed porch. When he wasn’t around, I let this one woman stay there. She was so scared, I remember. I assured her she could stay out of the wind and rain when I was there. There were so many others through the years I got to know, if just a little bit. Life in America is not always what some people glorify.
I think that the thing that kills about this comment may be more the racism than the privileged-class entitlement. When I was a young go-getter in New York, it was not uncommon for couples who had two professional jobs (and possibly kids) to pay someone to come in for a couple hours once a week to clean and do laundry. (One friend even supported an acting career by cleaning, until the guy who didn’t want her to clean, he wanted her to stand there and yell at him to make him clean…) But it wasn’t necessarily immigrants who did that work. It was whoever needed a job and was willing to handle other people’s dirt, as the book title goes.
Trump’s version is more about the “staff” who only speak a few words of english and won’t understand the things you say while they’re there or read anything you leave lying around.
Ivana, dahlink, you look like you are turning into your ex-husband. And if you would just wear some disposable diapers, you wouldn’t have to worry about anyone cleaning up after you.
Would a Presidential candidate PLEASE propose building a wall around eastern Europe in order to keep these disgusting, money-grubbing, bleached-blonde whores from taking away eligible rich men that should be available only to proud American-born disgusting, money-grubbing, bleached-blonde whores?
I was living out of my pick-up. All my worldly possessions were crammed in there under a camper shell… I slept on the seat with a dog as a sort of pillow. No job, no address. It’s not as liberating as one might think… The experience has stuck with me. I recycle. Hate waste. I also carry no debt. I pay bills right away. No credit card debt. Our home is paid off. That bank I use doesn’t like me… heh heh. I’m not rich, more like… comfortable. But it could come undone if something catastrophic were to happen. I was lucky. I got a good job at a University and spent 47 years there.
