WASHINGTON – President Donald Trump was telling U.S. troops about his historic meeting with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un on Sunday when he introduced Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, then sprang a surprise.

“You know who else I have?” Trump teased. “Has anyone ever heard of Ivanka?”

The president invited the first daughter to join Pompeo on stage at Osan Air Base in South Korea, jokingly calling them "beauty and the beast."

“She’s going to steal the show," Trump said.

Though it’s not the first time a member of a president’s family has tried to become a player in foreign policy, “these recent interventions by Ivanka Trump are not helpful to U.S. interests because she is not fully briefed on the issues and she does not have the appropriate clearances,” said Bill Richardson, who served as the United Nations ambassador under President Bill Clinton.............................

1. Daddy's getting so lucky tonight.

[dawg day]

2. She really is like a barnacle

... sticking very close, getting photo'ed like she's one of the heads of state.

Used to be it was Pence who smiled that adoring chit-eating smile at Trump... I wonder if he's being shoved aside because the family doesn't want Pence to know how far ga-ga-gone Trump is, even for Trump... because Pence could get the 25th Amendment going.

3. Does she think she'll inherit the Presidency

When the orange loaf gets his two scoop coronary?

6. Apprentice POTUS?

Ivanka is shadowing daddy so she can take over when he becomes incapable.

4. Oh, so sweet!

Daddy taking daughter to work with him!

Pity neither know what they are doing, other than basking in the (imagined) glory of their (imagined) grandiosity and power.

The looks on the faces of other world leaders - disdain, disgust, WTF looks, 'who brought the mental midgets' looks - go unnoticed by both, such are their delusions.

5. ...

8. Used to . . .

like skinny, young blondes.

But I've gone off them recently. Don't know why.

10. Top heavy boob jobs maybe?

7. I thought that pic of her amid a number of leaders was 'shopped.

But no, he actually injected her into the mix as if her incredibly radiant beauty, beyond the compare of anyone on the planet, would bring everyone to his side.

Wow! Not only is he a narcissistic egomaniac, he carries that over by proxy to his daughter as he pimps her out on the world stage. I'll sarcastically bet that the G20 just swooned and signed everything over to Trump.

9. Look how milky white his hands are compared to his orange face.

I didn't realize that he doesn't whole body tan.

11. Captions?

Abe: You have the hands of a corpse. So white, so cold.
Donald: Let me feed on your energy with my left hand while I hold your hand captive with my right.
Ivanka: That's my Daddy! Necromancer in Chief! So proud of him!

[JohnnyRingo]

12. Sounds like she popped out of a cake.

...while Trump swings a faux tee shot like Bob Hope.
