Ivanka Trump won't save us. This week proved that was a fantasy. (The Guardian)

[FreepFryer]

Trump has long sought to cast his daughter as the better angel of his nature, using her polished, more moderate image to reach beyond his base. Her official role with the White House will lend new credence to this narrative. Don’t be fooled this time. There’s far too much evidence to the contrary. {...}

Since Trump was elected, Ivanka has done very little to justify her moderate image on climate or anywhere else, even as she’s been showered with praise. When reports surfaced back in February that she and her husband helped kill a proposed executive order to scuttle Obama-era LGBT protections, for instance, the Times ran the story with a glamorous photo of the couple dancing away inauguration night. But it’s unclear how close Trump ever really came to signing an order that in 2017 would likely carry very unfavorable political repercussions.

What is clear is that crediting Ivanka for nebulous progressive “wins” like allegedly stopping homophobic legislation that might have existed allows Trump to throw red meat to his base while preserving the mythic appeal of Ivanka for the disenchanted. This isn’t triangulation as Trump would have us believe – it isn’t even moderation. It’s merely obfuscation.

I was never expecting her to. She is as selfish and narcissistic as her dad. She is absolutely worthless.

Where did tRump get the $8 billion he owed? Does anyone care? Why is this not addressed?
