Eric Trump Says Syria Strike Was Swayed By ‘Heartbroken’ Ivanka
NBC ^ | 4-11-17 | Alexander Smith

Posted on 04/11/2017 7:58:25 AM PDT by markomalley

Donald Trump's decision to bomb Syria was influenced by his daughter, Ivanka, being "heartbroken and outraged" at the country's alleged chemical weapons attack, one of the president's sons told a British newspaper.

The president launched 59 cruise missiles at a Syrian government air base he alleged was involved in a chemical weapons attack that killed dozens of civilians last week.

Trump's 33-year-old son, Eric, told The Daily Telegraph on Monday that the strike was influenced in part by Ivanka, who he said was "heartbroken and outraged" by the chemical attack.

So I take it ‘no, I won’t be boots on the ground’ in Syria is your answer then?

Some people here said nothing wrong with the pic because Bush wore a suit.

I would like to point out that is not a suit.

It is a blazer.

Yacht Party to Warzone ready to wear.

Complete with name tag that is a name for powerful weed.

(yeah I know..his full name is there..but I wonder if someone covered up part of his name on purpose to spell KUSH)

It’s a clear assertion she is pro choice. So prove it with unambiguous and specific data.

I wish I had your optimism in Jared and Ivanka, but I do NOT!

Red Flags went off when I heard Ivanka “Reaching out to Planned Parenthood, to find common ground.” What common ground do we have with an organization who slaughters unborn babies? And now we hear from Eric that it was Ivanka’s tears that prompted this stupid air strike and now regime change!

He’ll never say no to his little girl...ever!

Poor Ivanka. It could have been that time of month. PMS and all. Tears for no reason. Diplomacy by hormones.

I’m equally sure the MSM appreciates you participating in their endless divide & conquer campaign.

You need to go back to elementary school. Assertions aren’t punctuated by question marks. Any second grader knows that.

So, you’re telling us Trump didn’t try pushing Ryancare on us? Are you saying this was the fault of the Never Trumpers? Seriously?

"Trump's 33-year-old son, Eric, told The Daily Telegraph on Monday that the strike was influenced in part by Ivanka, who he said was "heartbroken and outraged" by the chemical attack."

If you'll notice, except for the "heartbroken and outraged" fragment, he's not being quoted directly. When reading anything from the MSM that's a red flag indicating he didn't say exactly what they want you to think he said.

""Ivanka is a mother of three kids and she has influence," Eric Trump said, speaking with the newspaper at Trump Turnberry golf resort in Ayrshire, Scotland. "I'm sure she said, 'Listen, this is horrible stuff.' My father will act in times like that.""

And here, it sounds like he's just guessing what Ivanka might have said. He obviously wasn't there and has no direct knowledge. In other words, he's running his mouth and speculating and the press is manipulating it to sell papers. Get a grip people. Consider the source and read with caution.

I have been saying this for awhile now to friends who are HUGE Trump supporters and they are having a hard time believing that Ivanka and her husband are liberal and/or democrats.

Can’t say I didn’t warn them.....

Sane thinking on your part. Some posters act like they got elected,or are auditioning for DU,the snark is palatable. Stop bitching about everything,you are alienating people faster than Hillary.

One of Trumps biggest supporters during the campaign..and still now..is not a NeverTrumper and she has issues with Jared and Ivanka. Probably not as much as a I do..but she has them.

Onyx.
