First daughter and Special Assistant to the President Ivanka Trump was booed and hissed by an audience in Germany on Tuesday when she attempted to defend Donald Trump's record on women's issues.
Speaking before the W-20 panel on women's issues as part of the G-20 summit in Berlin, the first daughter was met with loud disapproval when she described the president as a lifelong advocate of women.
"That is something I'm very proud of my father's advocacy, long before he came into the presidency, he championed this in the primaries," she said. "He's been a tremendous champion of supporting families and enabling them to thrive."

When Trump criticized the media for covering more than a dozen women's accusations of sexual assault against her father, the room of female delegates could be heard laughing.
"I certainly heard the criticism from the media, and that's been perpetuated, but I know from personal experience, and I think the thousands of people who have worked with and for my father for decades when he was in the private sector are a testament to his belief and solid conviction in the potential of women and their ability to do the job as well as any man," Trump told the crowd.

The audience also burst into laughter when the moderator asked Trump to explain her unconventional role in the White House, where she has a West Wing office and the title of special assistant to the president but no official portfolio.

Anyone who thinks Germany is a true friend is full of it. They love us for our money and protection.
There is a shock.
Hitler always did admire Islam.
Guess he might have the last laugh in the end. >:(
Oh for gawd’s sakes . . . LAY OFF The PC crap .. . You put yourself into those NO WIN situations
Just put your EGO in check and AVOID them
Yes...a 5 minute conversation with one of them will bare that out. They are maniacal socialists!
When the dust settles, the final membership of the EU will be Germany and Sweden..
We kicked Germany’s ass twice. Don’t make us do it again.
The media’s rants on Trump about women certainly paid off.
Idiots around the world bought off on it.
While the Left may find that just charming, it also reflects our ability to forge ahead with foreign governments and players.
What the Left finds most charming about it, is just that.
Harm the U.S.? They’re in!
I was in Berlin a few weeks ago. While I’ve been to several German cities, this was the first time to Berlin.
Boy, the Russians really did a number on that town in WW2. Between leveling just about everything, and then re-building it in typical communist barracks fashion, it is truly one of the most butt-ugly cities in Europe. They could use someone like Trump to come in and transform it.
That bears repeating.
GERMANS BOOING A JEW
Germany is despicable under Merkel.
She imports Muslims because she hates Jews.
Nothing compared to what the Germans did to Warsaw. And on top of that, they also got the Communist barracks, just like Berlin after the war.
Were they booing because he isn’t Sharia-friendly enough?
It is disgusting to see Ivanka go over there and kowtow to the globalist pigs. Of course she IS a globalist, so I guess I shouldn’t be shocked.
RE: They could use someone like Trump to come in and transform it.
Trump attempted to build a Trump Tower in Germany.
TD Trump Deutschland AG (German for “TD Trump Germany AG”) was a venture by Donald Trump planning to trade and build skyscrapers in Germany. In cooperation with Marseille-Kliniken Hamburg, The Trump Organisation agreed in August 2000 to found TD Trump Deutschland AG with a common capital stock of 4 million Euro, split equally as 2 million for each partner company.
TD Trump Deutschland AG initially planned to build a residential tower in Berlin’s central Alexanderplatz area. Trump’s German business partner Hans Ulrich Gruber described Trump’s aim as “to build a bridge between Berlin and New York.”
However, his plan for the tallest building in Germany in the capital city was stymied by Berlin’s relatively low (150 m) limit for new building height.
The company settled on Pragsattel (Stuttgart) for the construction of what was to be a 55-story (220 m tall) building named Trump Tower, which would have been the highest building in south Germany. The project investment was estimated at 250 million Euro.
to make a long story short, In January 2003, the city of Stuttgart finally refused the permission to build the tower, foreseeing that TD Trump Deutschland AG could not solve its difficulties in securing necessary financing.
The company was dissolved in April 2005.
Why do we even waste our time with them?
Everything they think they know about Trump they learned from the media.
How poignant that Ivanka gets booed in Germany on the same day that her father delivers amazing remarks at the Holocaust Remembrance at the Capitol.
Hard to fathom how our POTUS feels he has great chemistry with Merkel according the this past weekend’s AP interview.
They seem so diametrically opposed on fundamental issues.
So the women boo and hiss regarding the FAKE sexual allegations against Trump...but don’t boo, hiss, throw shoes at, or tar and feather Angela Merkel — who unleashed an unprecedented torrent of rape and assault of women in Europe by importing 1 million Muslim men?
Maybe Ivanka needs a dose of lefty idiocy?
