"THE STINK OF HIS FAMILY IS NEARLY IMPOSSIBLE TO GET OFF": JARED AND IVANKA'S FINAL CHAPTER

[elleng]

IN WASHINGTON DEMOLISHED THEIR FUTURE

After Trump supporters staged an insurrection at the Capitol, Javanka’s remaining social capital—and the fear that accompanied it—has dried up. Says one former friend of Ivanka’s: “How do you associate yourself with the worst, most toxic people in U.S. history?” . . .

“The finance world knew Jared was in the Middle East when all of this was happening, too, so their self-serving was laid bare,” one person told me. “The narrative going around is that Jared & co. plan to buy up all the distressed assets created by the pandemic he created, like a fucking oligarch.”

Optically, it didn’t help that someone caught a moving truck outside their Kalorama home in Washington on Thursday morning. A man lugging boxes from the garage loaded them into an orange truck with “College Hunks Hauling Junk” printed across the side. A spokesman could not be reached for comment.'

1. J-Kush is every bit as bad as Don Trumpleone, but with the sugar coating

of appearing less crass.

Vanity Fair articles have the interesting angle of coming from within a(nother) world I'll never really know (in addition to high level politics, that is)--that of wealthy socialites & celebrities.

So, I may be misreading it, but it seems to me that if VF thinks Trump's family are now anathema to most in those circles, it may very we be true.

They'll all still be in with the Ghislaine Maxwell & Jeffrey Epstein types, and the greediest of the non-perverts. But while Daddy was always kind of looked down on by the elites, Ivanka & Jared were part of the gang. No more, apparently.

4. When has VF ever liked the Trumps?

I mean Graydon Carter christened Donald a “short-fingered vulgarian”.

6. Lol, I didn't realize that's where "short-fingered vulgarian"

came from.

8. He and Kurt Anderson at SPY magazine

Look up their prank with sending small checks to millionaires and who would cash them.

In its short-lived existence, Spy magazine had a lot of fun with Donald Trump. The New York-based monthly is best known for making fun of the size of Trump’s fingers, but its deepest cut may have come as part of a 1990 prank.

Spy correspondent Julius Lowenthal wanted to know just how cheap some of the city’s richest figures were. So he set up a company, called the National Refund Clearinghouse, and sent letters with checks for $1.11 enclosed, “for services that you were overcharged for.” The letters went out to 58 “well-known, well-heeled Americans,” 26 of whom promptly cashed them. Curious as to how low they might go, Lowenthal sent those 26 “nabobs” a second refund check, for $0.64. This time, 13 people cashed them.

Finally, he sent those 13 respondents a check for $0.13. This time, only two people cashed the check. One was an arms dealer. The other was Donald Trump, whom the magazine identified as a “demibillionaire casino operator and adulturer.”

9. That's a riot! I mean, the idea to do it in the first place, and

that they could report this behavior, especially by “demibillionaire casino operator and adulturer” Donald Trump.



I suspect a lot of the people who cashed those checks have staff who handle that sort of thing, but who knows? It's still funny.

And I definitely needed the laugh!

2. This makes me so happy!!

Every family member must be made into a social leper. Take everything from them through financial pressure and criminal action.

The next generation of Trumps must grow up and have to work a real job like the rest of us. The cycle of this demon Trump family must be broken now.

3. I would love for Ivanka to have a particularly bloody primary for little Mario's seat.

trump.

7. This is why Trumps will gravitate to the UAE

No extradition treaty with the USA, plenty of investments where profits is everything, and morals nothing, close and allied to Saudi Arabia where there's even more money and disregard for human rights, but with nice shopping and acceptance of Jews, which SA still lacks.
