@IvankaTrump
You consistently make fun of half the country and then complain that it is divided.
The arrogance, mocking accents and smug ridicule of this nations Real Elites is disgusting.

(6,448 posts)You have to teach children how to hate and whom to hate. The Trump family legacy is (not in any order) hatred, excessive greed, philandering, cheating people out of money, tax evasion, money laundering, sexual deviance, and animal abuse. These are all learned behaviors--brought down at least from Fred. We don't know much about their genealogy and how far back this level of debauchery started from.
I don't care who the biological mother is either. They all seem to have the same motive for marrying the scum. Being a slimy, sleazy disease-riddled whore/porn star does not make her Mother Teresa. Consider "I don't care--Do you?"
Therefore, I have no hope for Barron. He gets a Ticket to Ride.

(6,448 posts)His only hope is that Daddy ignores him as much as it seems he does. Barron might learn morals from a nanny.
Wouldn't it be funny if he changed his last name as an adult? Then we'd know.

And, oh yes, Ivanka, you do know that Wilson is a Republican, dont you?
whathehell
(29,094 posts)Many of the comments were said with Southern "hillbilly" type accents It is something ot which the Left (myself included) is frequently guilty.
That said, it is, of course, hugely hypocritical for anyone in Trump's circle to complain about mockery..As mentioned, he mocked a disabled person.

(29,094 posts)I found it more stupid than "funny". The boomers I know stopped the Vietnam war -- They're hardly Trumpers.
Big generation, big bag, really mixed.
I agree with you, those are the ones I call the Peace & Love Generation (f*** "boomer" anyway)
But: Bill Clinton, Hillary Clinton, George W Bush, David Duke - and Donald J Trump
are all technically boomers.

(29,094 posts)They ARE a mixed bag, but so are all other generations, which is why it's dumb to demonize any one of them.

I hear his southern accent plain as day.

He has said somewhere he's 5th-gen Floridian.
The accent is fading in general, tho.

whathehell
(29,094 posts)You would "love" to see Ivanka beheaded?...Jeebus, I can imagine that said of Trump, but being a clueless daughter of privilege really isn't a Death Penalty Offense.
Coventina
(27,172 posts)She is not "clueless," none of the Trump spawn are (except maybe Barron, who is still very young).
She makes her living knowingly from the misery of her Chinese factories. She promotes the killing of endangered species (just like her brothers).
She is a horrible person, and the planet would be better off without her, but yeah, what I posted in a moment of rage was not right, which again, is why I edited it.
whathehell
(29,094 posts)I'm not sure how you "know" that none of the Trump spawn are clueless.. I'm not saying, she's entirely innocent, but no, I don't think she's anything close to death-worthy. I save my wrath for Trump Sr.
Coventina
(27,172 posts)I mean, usually we hold adults accountable for their behavior, unless there is a question of mental capacity.
Nothing about Ivanka indicates she has a severe mental deficiency that would prevent her from knowing right from wrong.
Do you think that Jr and Eric are also clueless? Or is this a descriptor you save for women?
whathehell
(29,094 posts)Can you imagine being raised by a Malignant Narcissist like Donald Trump and Ivana? What kind of values do you think they instilled? Any that would generate a world view of altruism, compassion or spiritual values? ...No, me either.
In answer to your question, I really don't spend much time thinking about Trump's kids.. Why? For a couple of reasons. One, I don't see them as "players" in the administration -- They're marginal, largely unimportant figures in that space and focusing on them seems a waste of time. For another, I'm not that judgemental, especially when I don't know people personally, and their public role is negligible.

She just recently stated that she "gave up her life" to serve in her dad's administration.

https://www.cnbc.com/2019/07/01/the-highest-paid-staffers-in-the-trump-white-house-in-2019.html
Trump's most influential advisor is his Senior Policy Making Advisor, Stephen Miller. Those are the facts.
Coventina
(27,172 posts)But, once again, you are wrong.
Just because she's unpaid, doesn't mean she's not an official member of the administration, she absolutely is:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ivanka_Trump
Senior Advisor to the President of the United States is her official title.
whathehell
(29,094 posts)in my opinion, and my lack of interest in doing the same seems to really bother you...So much so you misinterpret it as "defending" her, when in fact, I just don't find her or her siblings important enough to merit much attention, let alone hate
With that, I'm afraid I'll have to say adieu. As I said before, I'm not a very judgemental person, and have little in common with those who are. Given that Ivanka is one many here seem to "love to hate", I'm sure you'll easily find another with whom to share that inclination. Goodbye.
Coventina
(27,172 posts)And, you will see very other poster, aside from you, has an equally low opinion of her.
I'm not bothered if you don't want to hate her. That's a personal choice after all.
I do find it very odd that anyone on DU would defend her as you have, though.
It makes you absolutely unique, as far as I can tell.

(3,635 posts)Trump, like any crime family leader or tribal dictator operates via 'the family' and close associates (Giuliani, etc) to conduct his business. The benefit to Trump is that these individuals don't need to be approved by the Senate or anyone, and can operate in a grey area, beyond the reach of accountability. The official Admin/Cabinet people that do exist are mostly there just for show. The real business is conducted by 'the family'.
The Genealogist
(4,723 posts)Her stepmother Melanie, who wore a jacket that said clearly that she doesn't care to visit children her huzband had caged, is also the most bullied person in the world. I think what it boils down to is that the lot of them would love to behead anyone who doesn't just heap praise on them. Grifters and scum of the earth, the lot of them.
whathehell
(29,094 posts)but Melania's jacket said "I really don't care, do you"?
It didn't specify what she "didn't care" about, and it certainly didn't say "I really don't care about visiting caged children" Let's not make it worse than it is. We need to stick to the facts.

She doesn't like the 'U-crane' CNN interview with Don Lemon, Wajahat Ali, and Rick Wilson. Too bad. It's not saying anything untrue and the hilarity is glorious. It's healthy to let off steam laughing at our problems every once in a while. Getting upset with CNN over this while FOX gushes a firehose of thinly veiled hate and outright disinformation day after day... princess needs to get over it. She's not getting ratioed quite as badly as Pompeo, but it's close, and well deserved.
Go for the longer version of the clip here. It's worth it.

(5,127 posts)to get it. Then oh well. And I don't think she's too dumb to get it. I think she knows it will rile them up.
Mock the hell out of these asshole deplorables. They cannot be reasoned with. And their arguments are indeed asinine. No need to coddle them. Are they coddling the people they are demeaning and hell bent on destroying? Nope. They are hell bent on taking the rights away from women, minorities, destroying the earth because of their hate or stupidity. I really don't give a damn if they are being mocked at this point.
How come they always get to whine about people making fun or criticizing them, but no accountability for their real destruction and mayhem?

(25,983 posts)I'm from the South and we get the hick accent 'let me talk this way to show I think you're ignorant' thing all the time. It's not always appreciated, but (as you also pointed out) in this case it was a quick code well aimed and well deserved. Here's the thing: sometimes we use the same code for the same reasons on ourselves because some of us still have a sense of humor. So I have no problem with it here and I certainly don't care for Princess Barbie telling when my little fee fees should be hurt.
It was scathing hilarity gold.
Scarsdale
(9,426 posts)in New York, who refused to socialize with the tRump family? Phony millionaire tRump was an outsider. tRump is showing them now, how to get rich by ripping off taxpayers for his properties. Ivanka is the one who sets the outrageous prices for rooms at their hotels. Who but "elites" (or foreign dignitaries) could afford those prices? She should take her head out of her arse and smell the coffee. The free ride is screeching to a halt, princess. Jared will have to explain how he and his family went from neck deep in debt, to riding high with lots of cash in the bank. Also, I would like to hear what Iwanka spent that $100 million of taxpayer money on to promote women in business worldwide. Seems like she was the only one who profited from THAT. She really should "retire" and get back to her kids, before they forget who she is.

Every fiber of my being, from the deepest depths of my soul, to the tips of my male nipples in the frozen-food section at Harris Teater, knows with a crystalline, pure spar certainty, that I should NOT BE REQUIRED to give ONE-FUCK what this soulless, hell spawn "Netherworld Barbie" has to say about fucking anything!
My intellect, my psyche, my conscience, my decency and grace...all tell me that I shouldn't even be required to know who in the fuck these people are.
I know that these lifeless, grifting, vapid, empty vessels deserve NOT ONE NANO-SECOND of my serious thoughts.
These spray-on-tan, Loreal of Bakersfield, plastic, Axe-Body Spray wearing morons SHOULD BE THE MOST FUCKING INSIGNIFICANT PEOPLE WE EVER ENCOUNTER
Their impact on our lives should have the same effect of a fucking gnat blocking the path of a charging rhino.
I will NEVER forgive fucking Donnie Shit for Brains voting morons for requiring me to take seriously A FUCKING BUNCH OF IGNORANT FUCKSTICKS that should NEVER be taken seriously

The Right only respects strength and you need to pop them in the mouth like what the school bully deserves.
Hillary was correct in the 'basket of deplorables' strategy. You need to divide up the GOP base, so the 'respectable' Republican voters who like to think of themselves as classy wouldn't want to be associated with the deplorable wing. Politics is about identity, after all.
