Discussion: Ivanka Trump: Yup, Our Paid Leave Plan Focuses Only On Mothers

Yes, I picked up on that too. Considering the relatively high number of unwed mothers, this is an obscene condition.

For me the really silly talking point is the outright lie that Hillary has ignored the issue. How about a full blown 12 week paid maternity leave plan proposal. My guess is Mrs. Greenspan and Upchuck will repeat Trump’s lie without comment.

Yeah, they are real creepy uggos. But there are no systemic prejudices involved when you point out how awful those homunculi are.

All of this said, notice that Trump is trying to pander to his people. He must have some polling that tells him Hate Hillary only takes him so far.

We have to find ways to get Hillary’s positive message out.

Let’s drop this. I think Ivanka is borderline ugly. That is not sexist—that’s genes.

Chris Hayes and Rachel Maddow will thoroughly refute Trump’s nonsense. That will be ignored by those hacks, yes, but the MSNBC viewers up past 8pm will be well-informed.

Trump: We only believe in Natural Families, just ask any of my ex-wives/mistresses.

She is a Trump and a borderline-criminal perpetrator of fraud and a supporter of her scumbag racist father’s campaign.

Her ugliness has nothing to do with her looks.

If there Trump Klan was prohibited from using the words “amazing”, “incredible”, “beautiful” and “tremendous” they’d be rendered mute.

The real farce is its “financing” through “fraud” in unemployment benefits, which virtually doesn’t exist

A kinda, sorta woman-friendly policy, that the GOP would NEVER approve??

The Drumpf mascot should be a Pander Bear.

Easily.

It’s also irrelevant in a discussion of policy. I flagged the thread as off topic.

Pence is going to be foisted on us from the beginning as acting President. Trump will interrupt the rest of his life whenever he wishes to intervene on a particular issue but Pence will do the tedious day to day involvement. Why should Trump quit? He’s looking forward to 4 years of unearned glory pontificating on why we should return to the 1890s.

People go on and on and on about how hideous Trump and his sons are, and post horrible pictures.
A couple of relatively mild comments about Ivanka’s looks and I am flagged?
Think hard what your message is----isn’t it that Ivanka cannot be criticized on the same grounds which Donald and his sons are?

True … but oh,so tempting given the freedom with which Donald criticizes the looks of other people’s daughters.

He doesn’t?

He’ll drop it like a hot rock if elected… Doesn’t benefit him personally.

BINGO!!

Its a near empty gesture for precisely that reason.

And there is the whole hypocrisy angle involved here, namely that Trump is being given huge accolades for proposing something that is much less than Hillary’s proposal, and which neither he nor his daughter offer all their employees now.

Because, hey, NYT hasn’t even seen an imaginary Trump c**k they won’t suck.
