I just heard Republican strategists (female, admittedly) say that ivanka Trump had no business being on the featured panel of the Women’s Summit. Everyone else on the stage had a history of accomplishments on women’s issues and Ivanka appeared as a token family member. I get why Donald sent her (He doesn’t have anyone to represent him positively.) but her own cluelessness about her role and importance is astounding.

Not surprised this is how Ms. Trump plays on the world stage. I suspect her father will fare even worse.

The only surprise in all of this is that Angela Merkel invited Ivanka to this Summit. Then again, politics makes strange bedfellows. It might be easier for Merkel to cozy up to the plastic dolly daughter than the truly odious father.

@marby Yes she is totally unqualified to sit on this summit, but Merkel did invite her.

If you are feeling the least amount of sympathy for the woman, then you should watch this.

Great video capture of this entitled, arrogant, cosmetically restructured person oozing arrogant entitlement by running her modestly altered hand through her heavily altered tresses…
Has the Marine Corps Band come up with a good, peppy working arrangement of ‘Hail to the Daughter’ yet?

Ivanka believes that her father is 100% totally awesome, because he has told her so.

“I am totally awesome. Believe me. No one is awesomer than I am.”

She’s been hearing this sort of thing her entire life. One can’t blame her for being shocked that the world doesn’t necessarily hold her father in similar regard.

After all, the world only has his actions upon which to judge him.

Merkel just might have a wicked sense of humor.

Ivanka is the blonde canary in the German coal mine, testing the mood and atmosphere before daddy goes over and gets booed out of the country.

I am so embarrassed for my country right now, especially as this plays out on the world stage.

“Who are you representing?”


@spacesaver She was born on third base and thought she scored a touchdown.

Ivanka, the “smart one,” was born on third base and thought she hit a double.

I can’t wait for Donald Himself to throw out the first pitch at an MLB opener and see what that feels li –

Oh, wait. Didn’t happen. Because the little loser couldn’t face it. Sad!!

Perhaps Angela Merkel did so anticipating the chilly reception awaiting Ivanka Trump. Giving women of substance a chance to tell Ivanka they don’t approve.

I think it’s brilliant.

Schmoozing the power behind the playpen makes sense.

Yes…but she violated one of the core points that Oliver was making about her at this summit. Instead of just offering up empty platitudes that say nothing…thus allowing people to project whatever they want to see upo her…she tried to argue an actual point.

Not deeply, mind you, because she has been well schooled to avoid ever going deeply into any topic. But she got too close to the line by saying. “He’s been a tremendous champion of supporting families and enabling them to thrive in the new reality of—”.

Its still a throw away phrase. But saying a thrice divorced man who publicly said he can grab any woman’s pussy…and had dozens of women accuse of him just that is a champion of supporting families is just too specific.

And yeah, I will go there. Remember, he has essentially banished/ignored his younger daughter until it became politically expedient to recognize her for the campaign. And part of the reason, no doubt, is that Tiffany would have made Ivanka jealous of her “very special relationship” with Daddy,and he can’t have that. And I go there because numerous times (including in one example in the John Oliver piece) the man quite publicly shows that he equates Ivanka with sex.

HARDLY a champion of supporting families stance.

From the Politico article. The moderator’s opening question:

“The German audience is not that familiar with the concept of a first
daughter. I’d like to ask you, what is your role, and who are you
representing, your father as president of the United States, the
American people, or your business?”

Brilliant!

Facts are stubborn things.

“I did try and fuck her. She was married… I moved on her like a bitch, but I couldn’t get there. And she was married. Then all of a sudden I see her, she’s now got the big phony tits and everything… I’ve got to use some Tic Tacs, just in case I start kissing her. You know I’m automatically attracted to beautiful. I just start kissing them. It’s like a magnet. Just kiss. I don’t even wait. And when you’re a star, they let you do it. You can do anything. Grab them by the pussy. You can do anything.”
– Donald J. Trump
