During a White House event on Tuesday entitled A Conversation with the Women of America, Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders advised women to ask their husbands and boyfriends to buy them jewelry. And things got even stranger from there.
Sanders plug for jewelry came after she introduced a woman named Sharon who told panelists including White House staffer Ivanka Trump and Transportation Secretary Elaine Chao that shes a business owner.
Im a jewelry store owner of more than 20 years in the Atlanta area, so Im ecstatic about the tax reform bill, Sharon said, at which point Sanders jumped in with some advice.
Give your husbands, your boyfriends her contact information, Sanders said, with Ivanka Trump adding, Were going to have to send some people your way my secret skill, matchmaking.
Later on, President Trump dropped by and gave a speech. But instead of talking about the measures his White House has taken to empower women, he rambled about the black unemployment rate, his November 2016 electoral college victory, tax cuts, and the very tough measures other countries are taking to crack down on drug abuse.

According to the pic, there was a huge crowd of 10 women there.
A Conversation with the Women of America, indeed...sounds like something Ivanka cluelessly threw together.
