Ivanka Trump: 'There is a level of viciousness that I was not expecting'

[Julian Englis]

Source: CNN

Ivanka Trump said Monday she is surprised by the "viciousness" of the media covering her father's presidency, referring to the growing "cloud" of distractions resulting from the Russia probe.

President Donald Trump's daughter and top adviser also said on "Fox & Friends" that her father felt "vindicated" by James Comey's testimony last week before the Senate intelligence committee, in which the former FBI director said there was no investigation into Trump personally during his time at the FBI.

"My father felt very vindicated in all the statements that he's been making and feels incredibly optimistic," she said. "With all the noise, with all the intensity of media coverage and obviously what makes headlines, ultimately, we're really focused on why the American people elected Donald Trump as president."

Asked whether it was hard to get things done in light of the ongoing Russia investigation, Trump admitted she was "a little blindsided" by distractions she attributed to media "ferocity

I think most of us here are all surprised by the viciousness--but it's the viciousness of the right wing media and the viciousness of Trump, his gang, and the Republican party that has surprised most of us.

1. as I previously siad: she is a self centered, self entitled

rich piece of shit who has never had a day of trauma in her life...go crawl in a hole and rot in hell, you'll be doing the world a big favor

[LOL Lib]

10. Yes!!

I would love to give her an earful. She will know vicious when I am done.

[Doreen]

21. I think you just said it all about the female evil spawn.

[Rorey]

2. I've got some bad news for Ivanka

It's not going to stop. In fact, it's only going to get worse, and will continue after he's out. Their lives are forever changed, and not in a good way.

And they deserve it.

[Eliot Rosewater]

3. I think it is time to stop reacting to them, time to hit the streets.

General strike AT A MINIMUM

[hibbing]

4. Making fun of a disabled person is just all fun

Cutting 20+ million people off of health insurance is just politics and not vicious at all.


Peace

[niyad]

5. Iv, dahhhhhhling, it seems that complicit is not the only word whose meaning you do not

know or understand.

the fact that the pitchforks and tar have not been brought out indicates how mild the coverage of your self-admitted sexual predator father is.

[Democrats_win]

6. Let them eat cake!

Clueless princess Ivanka can't seem to see past her own nose. Was she asleep during the campaign in which Trump viciously attacked innocent people at every turn?


https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Let_them_eat_cake
"Let them eat cake" is the traditional translation of the French phrase "Qu'ils mangent de la brioche", supposedly spoken by "a great princess" upon learning that the peasants had no bread. Since brioche was a luxury bread enriched with butter and eggs, the quote would reflect the princess's disregard for the peasants, or her poor understanding of their situation.

7. But it was ok when directed at Clinton

[christx30]

35. Don't forget the amazing respect

Ivanka's dad showed toward President Obama. You know... questioning if he was born in the US or Kenya. Yeah.. the respect of saying that the first black president wasn't a black American. He was a foreign born fraud, out to destroy America.
I think we're just scratching the surface of the viciousness we could show toward trump. And all of it would be 110% earned by him.

[WhoWoodaKnew]

8. Her dad is 10x more vicious when going after small businesses (that he cheats and lies to)

you'd think she be use to this stuff.

[Scalded Nun]

9. So she is going into comedy?

[AntiFascist]

11. If she only realized how optimistic many of us feel...

as the cloud of corruption surrounding her father and husband begins to gain exposure.

[muriel_volestrangler]

12. He started his campaign saying Mexico was sending rapists and murderers to the USA

What the fuck did she expect? His campaign and presidency have hatred as their foundation.

Since then, he's demonized the religion of nearly 2 billion people, accused the father of a rival of being part of the assassination of a US president, been revealed as a sexual predator (something Ivanka admits herself), and his National Security Adviser has turned out to be a literal foreign agent. The Republicans, with Trump's support, are proposing taking away healthcare from twenty-something million people.

He spent the campaign encouraging his supporters in cries of "lock her up", and walked a fine line between joking about having protesters beaten up and actually encouraging it.

He's withdrawn from an international climate agreement, putting the lives of hundreds of millions at risk.

[SunSeeker]

13. The media is not being "vicious," Ivanka, it is trying to do its job.

It is the facts they are reporting that are vicious to your father. And that is because your father is doing vicious things.

Ivanka, you are a lying grifter like your father. For you and your crime family, the truth hurts, as it should.

[Denzil_DC]

14. Aw, diddums.

Has anybody cast doubt on his parentage (or hers, for that matter)?

Trump (allegedly) sired a snowflake.

[Pathwalker]

15. Liar! the American people elected Hillary Clinton! Your Dadums

was chosen by the Electoral College. I know you all like to push this bulllshit, but we know the truth, Ms. Snowflake. Trying to pretend you're shocked by the reaction of America, after your Dadum's unending nastiness to President Obama is really quite laughable.

[The_Casual_Observer]

16. I guess we are supposed to feel sorry for her. Fuck you and your wretched family, treblinka.

[TheOther95Percent]

17. Reap What You Sow

Karma is a thing. What you put out there comes back five-fold. Mocking the disabled, threatening the opposition with jail, discrediting the sacrifice of Gold Star families, telling fantastical lies. All of it. All of it comes back to bite you in your pompous ass.

[LisaM]

18. So she hasn't followed coverage of Hillary Clinton since 1992?

Why should she have? HER FATHER ONLY RAN AND BECAME PRESIDENT!!!!




WHAT IS WRONG WITH THE WORLD?

[dalton99a]

19. And her father introduced decency and civility to modern American political campaigning

[spiderpig]

20. So speaketh the mighty corporate businesswoman

Oh, bite me, Ivanka. You're as soulless as the rest of your clan - just disguising it with a breathy quiet voice and an "I'm a mother and an empowered woman" contrived persona.

You're complicit in the family's dirty deeds and think most of us are too dumb to see through you.

[Juliusseizure]

22. Trump kids a potential goldmine of info

Trump is using his children as mouthpieces for his propaganda. They're literally tools.

Each interview is an opportunity to get information.
Don Jr. is a particularly juicy target, with inside knowledge of Trump's Russian ties who consistently contradicts Trump.

Here are some interview questions for Ivanka -

"Why did your husband meet with Russian banker Sergey Gorkov"? "Did he know the bank was subject to sanctions"?

"How did you meet Wendi Deng, Putin's girlfriend"?

"Have you ever met any Russian officials or businessmen?"

"Why don't you manufacture your merchandise in the US instead of China"?

"Your father said in 2005 '"You know I’m automatically attracted to beautiful — I just start kissing them. It’s like a magnet. Just kiss. I don’t even wait. And when you’re a star, they let you do it, you can do anything.Grab them by the p***y, you can do anything."' If someone other than your father said that, how would you react?

But these are softball interviews and I strongly suspect the Trumpsters are not allowing questions about Trump's business dealings, etc. In fact, it looks like journalists are just given questions to read.

[Bernardo de La Paz]

23. She is supposed to be an adviser w secret clearance to the vicious President & she is playing dumb.

She thinks the American people are stupid.

[bluestarone]

24. the piece of shit

don't fall far from the piece of shit tree (THAT'S FOR SURE)

[Raster]

25. Evita says what???

Sorry princess... no one said fleecing the Country was going to be easy. Suck it up, buttercup.

[LisaM]

26. Does her unoffical office have a phone number?

If so, I think perhaps a few phone calls are warranted.

[onecaliberal]

27. Put your big girl panties on cupcake. Your dad and his party are the biggest slingers of vicious

There is. If you want to play in the kitchen, you'd better learn to deal with the heat.

[MFM008]

28. Lady

You have NO idea.

[PJMcK]

29. Chelsea Clinton

Perhaps Ivanka should talk with her friend, Chelsea, about vicious attacks. During her father's presidency, Chelsea was a teenager and Republicans treated her with complete derision. Infamously, John McCain told a disgusting "joke" that focused on Ms. Clinton.

Perhaps Ivanka should read some of the things her own father has been saying for the entirety of his life, especially about women.

Perhaps Ivanka should take a deep breath and take an honest and searching inventory of her own self.

Ivanka is such a tender, precious and delicate snowflake. Like her stupid father, she's an idiot.

[IcyPeas]

30. Ivanka quote.... "Perception is more important than reality..... (more)

this is a quote from her stupid book:

“Perception is more important than reality. If someone perceives something to be true, it is more important than if it is in fact true. This doesn't mean you should be duplicitous or deceitful, but don't go out of your way to correct a false assumption if it plays to your advantage.”

[rurallib]

31. Well the praise from the cabinet today should take some of the sting

out of those nasty reporters!

[milestogo]

32. There is a level of moral and intellectual depravity that the country wasn't expecting

from your corrupt old man.

[Hekate]

36. Spot on

[Guy Whitey Corngood]

33. Oh no! Hopefully she can get some Champagne popsicles. I hear they are a

wonderful stress reliever. I'm typing this in my whisper fake was Jackie Kennedy voice. So she can relate.....
But seriously. Go fuck yourself and the rest of your crime family.

[Julian Englis]

34. She should be upset about the press reporting her father was born in Kenya.

[JI7]

37. mocking someone's disability, Blood coming out of her, attacking someone's military service

attacking entire groups .................

fuck you ivanka you plastic piece of shit.

[FakeNoose]

38. Let's all ignore her, starting NOW

Anything this woman says is of no consequence to us or to the GOP.

She gets no sympathy from us, let her whine and cry to her own crowd. For Ivanka's entire life, everything has been laid out for her and her family on a golden runway. What can she possibly bitch about?
