I'm sorry Ivanka saying she represents American working women chaps my ass!

Spoiled little silver spoon girl. Had rich daddy to fall back on all her life. Rich friends and acquaintances to get her started . Huge bank book to start with. Nannies to leave her kids with constantly. Special tutors.

She does not represent American working women!!

It's no small comfort, for me, that I can see that she's holding her head purposefully high. She's always had to do that in front of the press, pretending that nothing is wrong with her crook of a father.

Now she has to do that with the additional weight of her husband's shame: 'a person of interest in a crimminal investigation.'

She doesn't speak for the majority of women. She is out of touch and clueless. She represents and speaks to rich women of privilege. Her company didn't even want to implement a maternity leave policy. And she certainly doesn't represent women of color. She is daddy's little princess. She lies just like her dad.

She "schedules" 20 minutes with the toddler. Who does that???

Correction: I corrected my post. It's 20 minutes with her three year old.

She doesn't even represent the working woman she pays near slave wages to in China to make shitty merchandise that working women that work in the United States can't afford to buy.

Most of that time I taught school for a living which left me better off than most.

I felt the same way about Sheryl Sandburg's book "Lean In". My book would be more like "Hang on for Dear Life".

what life is like for American working women.

I'd LOVE to see her TRY to make it on a typical American woman's salary - WITHOUT the Daddy money and connections and the nannies to help, without maids and tutors to fall back on.

She wouldn't last TEN MINUTES.

She's a female version of her Dad. Con artist, grifter and taught that NO laws, ethics rules or constitution apply to HER because she is privileged. All his kids are that way: ARROGANT, CLUELESS, CROOKED, SELF-DEALING, CONS.

Trumplodytes elected the exact kind of pseudo-royalty that they purported to avoid in Hillary.

Ivanka represents the new American aristocracy of wealth. That's all she represents.

Exodus 20:5 “You shall not bow down to them or serve them, for I the Lord your God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers on the children to the third and the fourth generation of those who hate me.”

Exodus 34:6-7 “The Lord passed before him and proclaimed, “The Lord, the Lord, a God merciful and gracious, slow to anger, and abounding in steadfast love and faithfulness, keeping steadfast love for thousands, forgiving iniquity and transgression and sin, but who will by no means clear the guilty, visiting the iniquity of the fathers on the children and the children’s children, to the third and the fourth generation.”

Amen.

This lady has never seen the inside of a laundromat, the inside of a transmission shop, touched a food stamp, worried about paying a utility bill, had to drag a sick kid to work, pulled a double shift to help out a friend, or any of the myriad obstacles and inconveniences that so many working women and poor women trying to get ahead face every day!!!

She makes me want to vomit. She represent nothing and no one. I don't have a nanny, a cook, or a maid. Or any handlers. I work 10 hours a day and then I get to go home and take care of my husband who had a stroke in part because of the maggot who made her.

And it requires every member of the family to participate. Currently this plastic-faced robot is representing the "feminist" side of Dump's regime until her corruption gets too thick -- which will happen in 5-4-3-2....

Jared, for a while, represented the "fair and balanced" side of Donnie Dumpster's White House, but alas...he is now the "person of interest" in the Russian scandal.

Uday and Qusay Dump are pretty much hidden away because the country already hates them.

Meanwhile, Donnie got a blow job from the Saudis and thinks he rules the world, but he's pwned big time. Can't wait until he gets to Europe and the Pope. I wish they could shame him into submission but that's not in the grifters' playbook. Lie, deny and blame others. That's how it works.

You have a right to be upset with Ivanka Trump trying to represent working women. How hard do you think it was for her to get a job at daddy's company? How hard do you think it was for her to become an Executive Vice President at daddy's company. How hard do you think she had to work to negotiate a pay raise? You do not really need a raise when you are going to inherit daddy's money. Second, you do not really need a raise when you can go to daddy and ask him for money when you extra cash.
