And the clam that produced that shell is on the endangered species list, so just like her brothers, no respect for anything other than herself and sales.

Ms. Trump, your campaign seems to have the momentum of a runaway freight train. Why are you so popular?

I’d like to go on record that this person does not represent me as a woman or anything else.

Stop pretending to be “for women,” Ivanka. You are what you are, and it is not something many of us want “representing” us.

there’s more spontaneity in a Plexaderm infomercial that in this interview. And what gauls me is that taxpayers dollars were used for this…

ETA: From the Buzzfeed article…

“Even Vladimir Putin doesn’t get interviewed by Dmitri Peskov,” said a Russian journalist who was present at the event.

and this from the TPM article

Video from the event shows hundreds of people watching the back-and-forth in a large conference hall.

do click on the link. What it show is hundreds of people (at least half) looking at their phones, pretty much ignoring what Ivanka is saying. And I didn’t see any evidence of headsets, or ear pieces that would be needed for simultaneous translation of her comments. Just lots of people, filling up seats because their government or company wants them to pretend to be interested in what Trump’s daughter has to say.

Just wondering what animal hair is she using for her heavy false eyelashes? Maybe they are synthetic but they are too heavy. We want to see your eyes, the truth in your eyes. (hahahahaha)

This is all part of the long game that Trump is playing.

He is setting up Ivanka for a 2024 run (in the event he wins in 2020).

He has said as much many times in the past.

And after Ivanka they will put up Eric in 2032 (they will never put up Don Jr. because he is such a fuck-up.)

Looking at Jared, I would imagine Ivanka was right at home with those soft ball, uh, questions.
