Ivanka Trump Booed in Berlin for defending her father's record
US News and World Report ^ | 04/25/2017 | By Gabrielle Levy, Political Reporter

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.

Perhaps it will wake her up.

Self respect dictates it. Self abnegation in the face of globalist taunts would be very revealing.

Germany: land of the anti-jewish, Calvanist creature. This country will lead the way into a full beast EU. Rome re-arising: the western Roman Catholic empire rejoining with the eastern Ottoman empire. NATO, the revived Roman empire. Watch as these truths unfold before your eyes.

The work of George Soros undoubtedly.

“The NAZI’s were pricks but they treated their military very well.”

Really?

From what I have heard they were used as cannon fodder in Russia———not even properly equipped.

Agreed.

And she shouldn’t be in the admin at all anyway.

She and Jared should return to NY. If Trump really needs a family confidante, Don Jr. is the one who should move to DC for that. He at least believes in the promises his father was voted in on.

With all due respect to the German people, they have probably been indoctrinated with fake news about Trump as much as low-information Americans have.

Corrections, insights welcome.

Ivanka shouldn’t be there. Trump should have sent Tillerson

Germany...from the same people who’ve let Merkel and their government piss all over them by flooding their country with Islamic terrorists. Yeah, they are that enlightened.

From the beginning of recorded history, any army that invaded Russia and stayed for the winter would be doomed to death by climate change...too damn cold for humans.

The ruskies drink vodka instead of anti-freeze, they aren't stoned, they are semi-embalmed.

I said SS barracks, not army grunts.

I don't know how well the average German soldier was treated when they were in country, but I would imagine it was pretty good.

I'm not sure this was a meeting for Tillerson ... since it was a panel of all women on women. But, Ivanka is not a good representative for Trump on "women's issues" ... whatever this means these days.

Ivanka doesn't represent someone Trump lifted from poverty or hard times. She's his daughter ... and he used his influence to help her. This may speak well of Dad's devotion to his daughter .. but does not speak at all to Trump's commitment to helping women

And Ivanka not being able to define her role is right out of the "Not Ready for Prime Time" playbook. Saying she's "learning and listening" diminishes her credibility and reinforces the "princess" meme.

Ivanka is not helping the President.

The truth hurts when you are a leftist and must be attacked viciously whenever it is spoken. Speakers of truth must be destroyed.

The German elite are fascists, of a different flavor thn the last time in history but just as fanatical and now are completely, willfully, blind to the realities the German people are facing.

That is called taking the lumps out. He would tell you no one believes it, its just something you say to encourage better communications & make a deal.

Certainly everything that goes on in these “summits” is just wind and sound. Best perhaps to have that fluff circulating so that the actual work of reclaiming & revitalizing America gets less attention. Maybe Trump has a plan. (sarcasm because I’m sure he has plans within plans and perhaps has Ivanka’s part mapped out in just this fashion)

The thing is, President Trump is just so much better with Melania at his side. She's the one who visited girls who lived in that crisis center. She's the one who was at his side when he presented the Purple Heart to a wounded warrior. Melania and Tiffany were there when the Trump family beautifully interacted with the guests at the Easter Egg Roll.

I've been Trump-watching in awe since "the walk down the escalator". I am in awe of how deeply President Trump loves his family and his country, that he'll change the world (at great personal sacrifice) for both.

President Trump is nobody's fool. I get the feeling that he prefers to trust people and take them at face value. That's the folks he associates with. I doubt he's unaware that the Spoiled Brat Princess has become a swamp creature in the aquarium. That's why I'm wondering if he won't inspire people to invite the Princess to Marvelous Gatherings of the Know-It-All Globalist Elite.

That went long....had to get my thoughts typed out to firm them up. <^..^>

Nah, keep her away from the White House, especially if it’s true it was her tears that caused us to bomb Syria.

Communist era architecture sure is horrid. I’ve never been to Germany, or Berlin, but my son has been to Berlin, and other German cities controlled by the Russians numerous times, and his photos show the ugliness. Quite a bit of graffiti too.

Two woman and a guy? Merkel is a Hillary look-alike. She probably has cankles too.
