People Are Roasting Ivanka Trump Over Her Apparent Disbelief At The ‘Level Of Viciousness’ In D.C.

Ivanka Trump didn’t do much to ease criticisms of her so-called “complicit” stance on Monday morning’s edition of Fox and Friends. The special assistant to President Trump explained how she felt “blindsided” by a “level of viciousness” that she didn’t expect when entering D.C. life appearance. It was, as many noted, a rather tone-deaf statement after her father mounted an aggressive campaign against immigrants and habitually made statements that disrespected women — and especially his female opponent.

Ivanka has always led an insulated existence, so perhaps she really is surprised, but this is also the same person who rang in Memorial Day with champagne popsicles. Indeed, it’s hard to overlook not only the nepotism at hand but also Ivanka’s own willingness to ignore serious issues, such as how activists who investigated her clothing line’s Chinese sweatshop have gone missing. This is why folks can’t turn a blind eye to the “Most Powerful Jewish Woman” label, which has inspired laughs when it comes to the president’s eldest daughter. The same goes for her own assertions that she pushes back hard against her father when, clearly, Ivanka reaped no new perspective from her secret meeting with Planned Parenthood earlier this year.

Unsurprisingly, Ivanka’s Fox News stint prompted an instant backlash with this warm-up tweet about Ivanka’s “lifetime in a bubble.”

Then people grew more specific, especially when it came to the campaign merchandise that Trump either sold in his online stores or that his supporters purchased through third-party vendors and wore to rallies.

One person hoped to remind Ivanka how “vicious” Trump’s birther movement must have felt to Obama’s daughters, Sasha and Malia.

There were plenty of of comments about the Affordable Healthcare Act: “It’s like you can’t even threaten to deport children and rip health care from millions without blowback! Buy my blouses!”

President Trump’s attack on London Mayor Sadiq Khan after his city’s terror attacks is still fresh on people’s minds.

The sweatshop activists who were arrested or disappeared received some much-needed attention (and hopefully, there will be an update soon on the situation).

And then there’s the story about how Jared Kushner’s father reportedly hired a prostitute to blackmail his brother-in-law….

It was inevitable that someone would bring up Trump’s lewd hot-mic comments about women, which he made to Billy Bush on Access Hollywood.

Of course, folks do recognize that Ivanka is out of her element after accepting such a high-ranking White House role. For that reason, they’re blaming Trump for giving her the job, which seems like a fair criticism.

And finally, people haven’t forgot about the disabled New York Times reporter Trump mocked on stage at a rally.
