Who can know what Ivanka Trump expected upon agreeing to an interview in Cosmopolitan — that she’d be asked questions like “Is Donald Trump’s childcare plan just great, or is it SUPER GREAT?” or asked about whether or not she had ever eaten a donut off of a man’s penis, or how she got a beach body so fast after her last child, or like, what she thinks this year’s “it bag” is. Whatever she thought, odds are she thought it would be a soft interview — Cosmo being a ladymag and all! Ladies aren’t interested in hard-hitting political coverage, are they? No, that is for the fellas. OR IS IT? Senior Editor Prachi Gupta did what few who have attempted to interview a Trump have done — tried to actually nail her down on some shit instead of smiling and nodding and pretending like what she’s saying makes sense and isn’t terrible.
Ivanka kicked off the interview by blatantly ignoring the first question posed to her — “Hillary Clinton released [aspects of] her plan over a year ago. Why did the Trump campaign wait so long to release this policy?” and by saying that she’s glad people have two plans they can choose from, and pivoting to talking about how important she thinks childcare is. In a typical Trump interview, this would be how things would continue, but it was not, and it wasn’t.
Gupta immediately asked her about why the plan was only for mothers — and, by the way (oh yeah and by the way DRUDGE SIREN), only for married mothers because single harlots who get knocked up can just go screw — and Ivanka, I think, tried to suggest that this was SUCH a big step that they didn’t want to discuss general parental leave just yet, even though Clinton’s plan includes it. When asked about how this applies to same-sex couples, Ivanka tried to present the plan in a soft, gauzy light: So it’s meant to benefit, whether it’s in same-sex marriages as well, to benefit the mother who has given birth to the child if they have legal married status under the tax code.
Oh, how lovely, we’re all supposed to think! They even included the lesbians! How very nice of them! But Gupta rained on her parade by asking if gay men would enjoy the same benefit if they adopted a child, and Ivanka was all like “No, cause they don’t need to ‘recover’ and this is just for recovering, not like, bonding with your child or anything.”
