And Bush Jr.'s daughters raised holy hell.

Not saying smoking is a good choice, just saying it is her choice. And the hypocrites "ripping" their decision to smoke should STFU.

1. They are adults and private citizens whose father happens to be

a former president. Yes, leave them alone.

To be honest, I also thought going after Bush’s daughters for underage drinking when they were 19 (old enough in most of the rest of the world) was also unnecessary.

People should stop using politician’s children as a proxy for attacking their parents.

Mind you that Trump’s adult children were/are actively involved in running his businesses and Ivanka was a senior advisor in the White House, so they are deserving of criticism for their actions vis a vis that. Their actions, some of which may well be actual crimes, are worthy of public criticism on their own merits.

3. I remember when President Obama was running then first elected,,,,

there were many pictures of him smoking and he said anyone that sees him smoking to please tell Michelle

I was a smoker back then but have since quit.

4. She's an adult.

Smoking killed my brother, so I'm not happy she has made that choice. Still, it's not a reason to attack her and certainly is not a sign of moral failing or failed parenting or any of that other rot.

These are likely some of the same people who don't think it's a big deal that a former president gave away classified secrets. I'd like to see them get outraged about that!
