Michelle Wolf destroys 'useless' Ivanka -'She's one of those worst kind of girls - she's fair game'

“I would guess that most people don’t even know what joke that was in,” Wolf said. “They probably just saw the headline: ‘Samantha Bee calls Ivanka Trump a feckless cunt.’ They don’t know it was a bit about ICE, and they may not even know that Ivanka posted that picture or really so much about that. I mean, Ivanka is part of the Trump administration. She’s fair game. And she is useless. So I think it’s very fair to point out that she’s doing a terrible job.”

Wolf said that people have been “fooled” by Ivanka because she’s an attractive woman.

“We pull that, ‘Well, she’s just a little girl! She’s just a pretty little girl.’ And that’s why you shouldn’t underestimate women: they’ll look like a pretty little girl and they’ll steal the children right out from under you,” she said.

Tiffany isn't very visible either, but what little I've seen of her is as slavish to her father as the rest of them albeit less hostile to those groups he's generally hostile to.

She has never had to account for anything. She has worked in "the family business," a place where no matter what she did, she could never be fired. She has had the kind of looks that our culture admires and uses it to her advantage. Her mid-sentence smiles and coy mannerisms have been perfected to avoid accountability and to manipulate the questioner.

Ivanka is to be loathed. She is a czarina. She sits on a perch, wrapped up in privilege while living in the fake world of all things Trump. Neither she nor anyone in that family has ever used their wealth or celebrity to help anyone other than themselves.

No. Its NOT. And thinking its fine makes you just as bad as those who never thought there was anything wrong with it to begin with.
But go ahead and gleefully wallow in that gutter. It does nothing to Trump, either Trump, and it only gives the RW the excuse to continue to do the same thing to Democratic women & not worry about what people think.

You can go ahead and dance to the right wing's tune because you think you'll finally be one of the cool kids if you want. But you'll never win. And Ivanka IS the worst worst WORST. Sorry, but it's true.

Oh, but WE'RE right, so that makes it fine. Ok to call the "right" black guy the n-word too? I mean, Ben Carson is quite a reprobate, so I'm sure thats fine. Like torture; its a terrible thing, but since we're the "good" guys, its understandable that sometimes we need to use it!! I guess Michelle Obama was wrong.

Its just great fodder for ads showing hypocrisy. Just as we had an OP here, after the Bee incident, showing all the times the right used the word against Hillary or Pelosi on T Shirts & posters. Hypocrites.

If you do, then they can lead you around by the nose. And they will. When it comes to politics it has real-world consequences. Think Karl Rove and Roger Stone. They are so good at it that they've convinced some people that saying a bad word is just as evil as separating children from their parents, and send them off like flying monkeys to spread the word! Can't wait for 2020.

As for Rove & Stone, you can get banned or a hide here for saying the wrong word, so its nothing new

An unanswered snarky comment? Ivanka is still shamelessly in place. As much as I appreciate Michelle Wolf's comments, she has not destroyed anything or anyone.

Which I guess is the best way to deal with it; if she responded it would be obvious it had gotten her upset
