1. Didn't Republicans go crazy accusing Hillary of doing something similar? nt

2. Initially, I was neutral about Ivanka.

After watching how she comported herself, how she has spewed BS, how apparently greedy she is, and how she has repeated lies, the only conclusion one can arrive at is that she is as full of shit as her father.

3. Among the rules for the auction

United States Secret Service will be Present for the Duration of the Experience.

Since when were Trump's kids entitled to Secret Service protection? I can understand Trump and his current wife (I was going to say "First Lady," but apparently that issue is still up in the air). But how far (and how much are the taxpayers being stuck with) down the Trump gene pool does S.S. protection go?

5. I WOULD ...... PEE in her coffee mug and laff as she drank it.

6. And what is the charity she is donating

the money to? New Baubles For Ivanka?

7. Her brother Eric's charity. Supposedly to benefit St. Jude Children's Research

Hospital. Why do I have a feeling they will never see a penny of that? She is as soulless and disgusting as her father.

9. I hope the "failing New York Times" follows up on it

to make certain St. Jude gets the money, not just the mention.

8. They might do better if it was an auction not to have coffee with any Trump.
