I mean I despise Donald Trump at all levels and I think he's said some disgusting shit even about his own daughter, but this pic could be any parent that loves their kid.

I should not have said it. Thank you for correcting me. I had just found out that the FBI sat on the email discovery for weeks before the letter came out (at least according to one source). I was somewhat frustrated.

Besides that, who sits against their father like that pose? She looks like a teen.

It really looks like people over react around here if they don't like something.

Is this your bombshell you keep talking about?

I abhor Trump, but there's nothing wrong with this picture.

cuddling and entwined with his daughters while relaxing with them. Disgusting RWers have long tried to make out they imply something improper going on between them.

This photo looks a lot like those. There are plenty of things to go after Trump about (and quite a few pics of him and Ivanka which do make uncomfortable viewing). A pic of him apparently showing appropriate parental affection toward his daughter isn't one of them.

The only difference I see is the Obama pics I'm talking about seem unposed, and all involved seem caught up in their interaction and oblivious of the photographer, whereas both Trump and his daughter are looking at the camera.

Seriously. There's enough real dirt on Trump without making junk up. Behavior like this makes it a lot easier to treat the real accusations as made-up, as well.

39. "I helped create her. Ivanka. My daughter, Ivanka. She’s six feet tall, she’s got the best body.”

Oct 2016

“I’ve said that, if Ivanka weren’t my daughter, perhaps I would be dating her,” Donald proudly admitted...in a 2006 appearance on The View when he was discussing the chance of Ivanka posing nude in Playboy..."
But that was nearly ten years ago. There’s no chance he could still feel like that, right? Wrong. “Yeah, [Ivanka’s] really something and what a beauty, that one,” Donald was quoted in a Sep. 2015 Rolling Stone article. “If I weren’t happily married, and ya know, her father…“

https://www.google.com/amp/s/amp.cnn.com/cnn/2016/10/08/politics/trump-on-howard-stern/index.html?client=safari
In more than one interview with Stern, Trump took part in conversations about Ivanka Trump's appearance, including one about the size of her breasts.

In an October 2006 interview, Stern remarks that Ivanka "looks more voluptuous than ever," and asked if she had gotten breast implants. Trump is willing to engage in the discussion about his own daughter, telling Stern that she did not get implants.

"She's actually always been very voluptuous," Trump responds. "She's tall, she's almost 6 feet tall and she's been, she's an amazing beauty."

In another interview, from September 2004, Stern asks Trump if he can call Ivanka "a piece of ass," to which Trump responds in the affirmative.

"My daughter is beautiful, Ivanka," says Trump.

"By the way, your daughter," says Stern.

"She's beautiful," responds Trump.

"Can I say this? A piece of ass," Stern responds.

"Yeah," says Trump.

---------
Has Obama ever said anything like that about his kids???? Who would say this reflects a healthy, A-OK father-daughter relationship?

Add: Trump is not a sane man, and that has been on display for more than a year. His attitude toward his daughter -- and women in general -- is yet another aspect of his numerous deep issues. Unfit and, yes, deplorable.
