I saw his speech live today. Does anyone who saw that actually think he has changed his mind about vetting people, or wanting the wall, stopping immigration, or any of those things we see him striving for?
These nancyboys, or negative nellies here on FR need to inject a little steel in their spines and remember that most articles on the Trump family or administration have one purpose, and that is to divide us.
Nevermind the media attempts to divide Trump’s base over Ivanka. It will never happen. Trump’s base doesn’t even know the Kirchners, or identify with them, and in their run of the hallways, if they cause our president no problems then send them roller skates. No one cares.
I hope you’re right, and that Ivanka proves an asset to the president.
She may prove herself to be absolutely necessary to his governance. Ivanka may turn out to be just the one to deliver some meaningful ground on Trump’s winning campaign issues, able to add support to and for his base, and to broaden the president’s support beyond it.
Women’s issues, however, is just not one of those base issues, but my comments up-thread already speak for my opinion on all of this.
The rest is really just the awkward optics, as I already explained.
I have nothing personal against the kids. If they are on the government payroll in official capacity, I’m sure the substance of their work will soon be observed and inarguably astonishing, politically speaking, for our man.
Meanwhile,.... it still looks really awkward.
