It's now "unrealistic, unfair and cruel" to have expectations of Ivanka, who's "doing what she can"

[Miles Archer]

“She’s in there doing what she can,” said former National Enquirer gossip columnist turned PR professional R. Couri Hay, a longtime Trump booster. “It’s unrealistic, unfair and cruel to expect her to change climate policy and pre-K and women’s issues in six months.”

Now, with her father’s presidency in disarray and the tide of public opinion rising ever higher against the family that has positioned itself at the very top of the U.S. government, Ivanka Trump is trying to resize expectations.

“She has told allies that she wants to be held accountable solely on those issues she is actively working on,” Politico said, rather than being shamed for her inability to stop her father from making reckless moves and saying — and tweeting — things that undermine his administration.

“Allies have bucked up her spirits by telling her that her legacy will look better in hindsight if she is successful in moving the needle on her stated issues,” Politico said. “And as she navigates the unique role of working-daughter-in-the-White House, she is reading Eleanor Roosevelt’s biography for guidance and inspiration.”

1. going shopping, traveling, ensuring abusive working conditions, etc - doing all she can...

[50 Shades Of Blue]

2. Her "legacy"? Puh-fucking-leeze!

[Control-Z]

8. Yup.

That one jumped off the page and smacked me in the head.

[smirkymonkey]

25. Yeah, I threw up in my mouth a little when I read that.

Ivanka, I don't really think anyone is going to give a shit about your "legacy" in prison.

[Freethinker65]

28. Hahahahahahha.

[Johonny]

3. She could have the good deceny to distance herself from it

Reagan's daughter did so it's not unheard of. Instead she and Jared are two fisting into the cow pie so they're every bit as responsible. You can't pretend your not part of the stink and remain loyal to this White House, period.

[Solly Mack]

4. lolololol

[underpants]

5. What does she DO? I've added quotes from her "friends" OUCH!

“Everyone knew that Jared’s father was a felon and her father was a buffoon, but you looked past that because they stood on their own two feet and were sophisticated and presentable. They were accepted despite their parents. Now, there’s no separating the two,” said one longtime friend.

Other people who have known the heiress through the worlds of fashion and the New York socialite set are not optimistic that the First Daughter has the character to stand up to her overbearing father.

“I know her well enough to know her relationship with her father, which is that she will never, ever, go against the grain,” said one person to Politico.

A close family friend said that Ivanka picked up early on that she earned special praise and attention from her father when she pleased his expectations of her, saying, “She wanted to be the apple of her father’s eye. There’s no question, she worked hard to be the perfect image her father wanted.”

7. seems Ivanka just plays the victim. IMHO

[Proud Liberal Dem]

6. I never really had great expectations for her anyway

It was sort of crazy IMHO that anybody really did. Trump will do what Trump will do and NOBODY will be able to reign him in.

[regnaD kciN]

9. Conservative Double Standards, Part (Infinity - 2)...

It's pure Feminazism to suggest that women deserve any protection from institutional sexism, but, hey, we need to give all the breaks in the world to a pretty girl like Ivanka, particularly when doing so benefits a conservative politician relative...

[Adrahil]

10. Ivanka, you KNEW what your father was.

You are fucking complicit. GTFO.

[Angry Dragon]

11. nice aluminum foil dress and hand on butt

[Canoe52]

12. The phrase poor little rich girl comes to mind.

[Donkees]

13. Loser

[Grammy23]

14. For real here. What can we really expect from a woman who thinks a dress made of used

Aluminum foil is high fashion? And she is supposed to change the world?? Lord, help us all.
😂😂😂😂😂

How dumb do they think we are?

[VWolf]

15. Doing what she can (equals) making champagne popsicles n/t

[spanone]

16. comedy gold!

Bwahahahahhaa

[dmr]

17. I've no expectation of her. Her legacy? Oh, good grief!

She thinks too highly of herself.

Does she think she'll be remembered in our history books? Her father will be, and Ivanka will only be mentioned as one of his kids. Unless, of course, she's caught up in the Trump family, or her husband's corruption.

[secondwind]

18. Ellie Roosevelt is the antithesis of an Yvanka Trump.. She really thinks they are on the

same level?

[marylandblue]

27. And Trump is no FDR

FDR actually listened to his wife.

[WhiskeyGrinder]

19. She's the one who jumped in and insisted she could do it. If she's worried about a "legacy," she has

only herself to blame. The only person who elected her was herself.

[cheyanne]

20. No,no, Ivanka you don't get to chose " the issues on which you should be judged.

People will judge you on issues that are important to them, not just the ones you chose. One of those issues is that as a member of the Trump administration you are complicit in all actions of your dad. Your dad has yet to learn that saying that he is one of the greatest president doesn't make it so.

[LakeArenal]

21. Just change her robot setting to Decency Mode. nt

[GallopingGhost]

22. Tsk, tsk.

Everybody knows Harry Truman's most famous quote about getting out of the kitchen if you can't stand the heat, but he also said that it's amazing what you can accomplish if you don't care who gets the credit.

He thought Nixon was a slimy liar, so can you imagine what he'd think of precious daddykins?

[lame54]

23. This is not a great woman...

All her advantages and she still can't do anything to benefit society

She is only in her position due to luck and privilege and now is completely in over her head

[smirkymonkey]

29. If she really wanted to be a benefit to society, she easily could be.

She was only ever there to grift and put a pretty face on her father's ugly administration. She never had any intention of going against him or reining him in. That whole family is just rotten to the core.

[Big Blue Marble]

24. This reeks of someone who always gets her way.

She is and always has been daddy's little princess and now is shocked that anyone would criticize her.
Poor spoiled little girl hits the wall of public outrage. Oh no's!

Her protests will only bring her more derision.

[Zambero]

26. What she can and will do is NOTHING

As planned.

[tazkcmo]

30. Money shot.

"...her legacy will look better in hindsight if she is successful..."

In other words, bullshit walks, money talks. Suck it up buttercup and get to fucking work you entitled, pampered, self absorbed POS.

[jmowreader]

31. I can think of a MUCH better book for her to read

Steve Vincent's "Federal Prison and Federal Prison Camp, A Beginner's Guide for First Time Inmates" would be a far more appropriate read. The way shit is going, every member of the Trump family, with the possible exception of Barron, are going to finish up their time in Washington by being sentenced to hard time.

[GoCubsGo]

32. ...

[Orangepeel]

33. Shouldn't she be trying to "architect" expectations?

[Tanuki]

34. She looked as pleased as punch to hear that the GOP congress

had voted to strip healthcare from tens of millions of Americans to fund a tax cut for her fellow multimillionaires. She is fully complicit, and she's got a lot of nerve to send a publicist out to portray her as a victim.

[elehhhhna]

35. If she can launder money in Azerbaijan,

If she can launder money in Azerbaijan,there's no telling what other kind of mad skills Shetrump has.she should just go home and spend time with her kids before the AG Schneiderman busts her ass. The ass at Jarrods trying to put his hand on in the reflection in the picture

[maxrandb]

36. Message: She's about to throw daddy under the limo

Even family better not get in the way of fleecing the National Enquirer demographic. "Thar's Gold in 'dem 'dere woods"

"Don't blame me that my Daddy's a moron"! "Now, go buy my fabulous shoes"

[MiddleClass]

37. She is so talented, she has achieved greatness in such a short time. Being spawned by the great one!

I will bet you none of you achieve that by the age of one second. A record achievement,

what a legacy.

Now you want her to do what she said she would do?

Let me ask you a question, would you ask anybody else in her position, of being one of a group of the most spoiled children of privilege that ever existed to be held to what they say?

It's highly unfair I say

almost forgot
