WASHINGTON (AP) — President Donald Trump's 2020 budget proposal will include $100 million for a global women's fund spearheaded by his daughter Ivanka Trump.

In a statement to The Associated Press, Ivanka Trump noted that Friday was International Women's Day and stressed the initiative was "working towards our goal of economically empowering 50 million women in developing countries by 2025." She says the budget includes "a new $100 million commitment" for the fund.

Yet $100 million of taxpayer monies to be used for a global initiative?

How does that sit with you?

***************

It disgusts me, especially since it has the smell of a form of nepotism.

Shouldn’t it be referred to as the anti-man fund?

She’ll probably give the money to organizations I don’t like.

I don’t like Ivanka and Jared’s politics. I don’t think she could even vote for her father in the primaries as she was a Democrat. Jared comes from a very liberal family. His brother protested against Trump.

It’s like Trump is trying to buy Ivanka’s love. I’ll take Don Jr or Eric any day over these two.

That said. Trump is still the best option out there. He sure woke me up to how deep the DEEP STATE really is. The Wikileaks emails also woke me up to how corrupt the DEMs are.

I’d rather spend money helping women out economically in their own country than to have them come here and live on welfare.

Of course, that’s 22 TRILLION!

How does that sit with me? It’s a bullshit move by Trump - let’s take care of America for a while, at least - screw the rest of the world.

Instead of giving 100 million women a dollar, why not give 100 ...naaa just forget the whole thing.

Inanka can give away HER money!

Javanka belong in NYC with their fellow Manhattan liberals—not in the WH undermining the agenda of those who voted Trump into office.

Moreover, countries that need that crap do so because of their corrupt governments. Funds like this get twisted to their purposes and just help to keep the corrupt governments in power—and the populace poor.

I think both Hillary with “the foundation” and Michelle with government money did the same thing. At least that was the reason given when both of them made trips to foreign countries. I believe there are pictures of them both at various functions while abroad....”once a broad, always a broad.” Oh! My! Who did I offend?

Can’t find the pictures I was looking for but a horrible thought went through my mind when I ran across this. Do you know we will be seeing a HOLIDAY in tribute to this skank someday - that’s if we live long enough and I for one, hope I won’t be here. She will be honored like Rosa Parks IF the country isn’t totally trashed by the newcomers to Congress.

And then we have Michelle - couldn’t find what I wanted on her either but couldn’t believe all the rave reviews that popped up about her - too bad she couldn’t live up to all that praise...She was one nasty, bitter, angry person!

“”When are these developing countries ever going to be developed?””

It would appear the answer to that question is NEVER....it’s much better to always be reliant on sympathetic nations to load their coffers with money so the dictators can ride off into the sunset or whatever they do. Then the cycle starts anew.

NO FOREIGN AID FOR WHATEVER REASON!

I don’t care what Ivanka does, as long as there are photos.

Evening gowns preferred.
