Ivanka Trump returns quietly to campaign trail, faces no questions about allegations against her dad

Source: CNN



She has not commented about the tapes of Trump's conversation with Billy Bush of "Access Hollywood" in which Trump spoke in vulgar and crude terms about women, nor has she commented on her father's own words against her which include condoning the radio host Howard Stern referring to her as a "piece of ass.

Ivanka Trump returned to the campaign trail Thursday for a series of small events, described as coffees, in the suburbs of Philadelphia. A recent Bloomberg poll showed that voters from that area favor Hillary Clinton by a wide 28-point margin.

Until Thursday, her only recent public appearance had been at Sunday's presidential debate after which she did not publicly weigh in on her father's performance. Public statements have largely been relegated to social media; Ivanka Trump's Instagram is full of her promoting her #WomenWhoWork campaign, the title of her forthcoming book. There is one photo of the Gateway Arch, the iconic structure synonymous with St. Louis. There are none of her father or with members of her family from the debate.

Since the Republican National Convention, her public involvement with the campaign has primarily been to push the paid family leave proposal that runs counter to GOP orthodoxy and which she convinced her father to add to his platform. She pitched that plan to conservative congressional leaders in late September.

No -- all daddies DON'T fondle their daughters in front of the camera or walk in on them while they are changing clothes. It doesn't mean he loves you or that you are special; it just means you are a thing to him, a piece of his property.

Seek help.

That whole family is screwed up in a major way, and very co-dependent upon one another.

What man/father allows another man to call his daughter a "Piece of Ass."

What "normal" 46 year old man asks a 10 year old if she's “Going up the escalator,” and when the girl answers yes, the 46 year old man says aloud and into cameras and others “I am going to be dating her in 10 years. Can you believe it?”

We know that the horrible quotes from tRump that we know OF would take me a day or two to list.

tRump is a sexist, misogynistic, knuckle-dragging sexual-assaulting criminal.

Ignoring isn't an option.

Honestly, I can't stand her almost as much as I can't stand her father. Her carefully modulated voice makes her sound like a robot, or maybe a freak.
