I see that "Malia Obama" is trending on Twitter right now.

https://twitter.com/search?q=%22Malia%20Obama%22&src=tren

The Daily Caller has leaked a video of her kissing a guy, and blowing smoke rings from a cigarette, so naturally the winguts are going crazy. OH NOES!!!!! A first-year college student doing typical college student things!!! Perhaps she should be off laundering money for Daddy, and running sweatshops in China, instead?

One of the twitter trumpettes and had the nerve to tell agent orange that he and wife bright up a wonderful family unlike the Obamas raised Malia.

I almost puked on the spot.

I'm seeing a lot more "At least she didn't subvert democracy, or give daddy a lap dance" posts. It's encouraging that most people see this for the complete fucking joke that it is.

But, only because I had just watched my grandad die of lung cancer and COPD the year before. I preferred drinking beer and Mad Dog 20/20, instead.

Especially with everything we know about smoking now. I'm sure Malia's father will have something to say to her about this. Personally, I hope it's really weed, rather than tobacco. It's legal in MA.

I understand how hard it is to quit. I watched my mom try to quit for years. It took getting breast cancer at age 48, when she just went cold turkey. But, I know a few people my age, who are still can't beat it.

I learned something each time though....by the time I quit for good I had quit smoking in my apartment, in my car, and had learned what triggered me (alcohol, for example)....I say to folks trying to quit, keep trying - google, there's lots of help / tips out there

if you look a the "top tweets" I.E. those with the most likes......... they are ALL trashing trumpettes for their incredible hypocrisy.

This "outrage" is resonating with basically no one other than the trumpettes, who are already hopeless.

Malia is old enough to understand the nuances of the current political discourse, and the animosity towards her dad and mom, so...from that point of view she should be mature enough to make sure she does not give an eighth of an inch to the repubs to try to throw dirt at her and her family...don't open the door to the deplorable creeps (I am talking about the GOP politicians by the way) to start making noise because of her behaviour...

So I say to Malia...be careful, make sure that what you do is not on video, in a picture, it must be on your own private time and place.

The GW Bush girls were party animals and very little was disclosed about what they did, and that is because democrats are liberal, meaning they understand and will not throw someone else children through the mud, but that is not the case with the republicans, they live for the opportunity to throw anyone, even their own, through the mud. They see a democrat scratching his/her nose and they will run with it. So, Malia, be smart about what you do, you ARE under the spotlight.

There are plenty of pictures of Ivanka smoking on the internet. Just google “Ivanka Trump smoking”. I’d paste one in here if I knew how to do it on my iPad.

She was probably around Malia’s age. It’s probably one reason Ivanka jumped in as fast as she did to defend her.
