It’s not for nothing that The Dick of Death is known by some nasty nicknames. Who dared intervene in whatever TF that evil dickweed was up to at any moment? Eight years he effectively ran the WH and not a mother’s one of his party members questioned that vile toad.

The czarina was trying to equate her position with Liz's but Liz was never a sworn in advisor to the president. Liz was not obliged by oath to intervene in her father's political life, czarina was.

I hope the point that Empty Wheel wasn't equating Liz Cheney's advice to her father with Ivanka Trump's advice to her father.

What is the point of this?

and gosh the most victimized blaming SOBs in the universe. They never do any wrong and when they do, that didn't happen because their gawd favors them over anyone else, so therefore, I guess their gawd gives them permission to lie, hate, bear false witness, cheat, steal, and take away the basic human rights.

Liz (who, incidentally, should apparently never try to be an interviewer ..) trying to tag Ivanka with a 'responsibility to advise' (whatever the heck that means - when DJT quite clearly didn't listen to anybody that had a message he didn't want to hear). And failing miserably there .... Then Ivanka rope-a-dopes an 'I don't remember' - which also neatly slides by ...

What about this exchange was 'remarkable' again .. ?

but she hides behind being a "Loving Daughter" when it helps her avoid consequences.

The Trump administration overruled security experts and gave security clearances to over 2 dozen people, including Ivanka and Jared.

Ivanka and Jared had no business being advisors to the president, no matter if they were related.
