Handbag salesperson represents US in migration talks

---snip---
President Trump's daughter and adviser Ivanka Trump has an expansive portfolio in her father's administration. But on Saturday, she literally took his seat at the table at the G-20 Summit here.

The first daughter was spotted slipping into Trump's seat at a G-20 Summit working session on "Partnership with Africa, Migration and Health" putting her shoulder-to-shoulder with Britain's Prime Minister Theresa May and Russian President Vladimir Putin, who sat one seat down.

Trump's presence at the high-level table was somewhat unusual, given that government ministers are typically the ones called to stand in for heads of state at such sessions.

Ivanka, who entered the session with her father, “briefly joined the main table when the President had to step out” a spokesman for the first daughter said.

And she and a shady landlord babysat the US president in meetings with Merkel and Nieto. Isn't it great to see the experience that the third largest country in the world can bring to international relations?

that "Beauty is in the eye of the beholder" I do not find her very attractive, and she seems to be as dim witted as daddy. This is a slap in the face of the elected officials who MIGHT know a little about the subject at hand.

from the article:

--->I'm very proud of my daughter, Ivanka — always have been, from day one — I had to tell you that, from day one,” Trump said. “She's always been great. A champion. She's a champion.”<---

From day one? I guess she was a world class pooper?

that it took over $100,000 of facial surgery to make her what she is today - a tRump with dyed blonde hair, extra large teeth, and a chin implant. Boob implants, too. I do not think she has ANY of her original facial features now, the Botox makes her look like an inflatable sex toy.
