Some People Think Ivanka Trump Is Awesome And Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez Isn't, Which Is Why You Shouldn't Care What People Think
S E E D E D C O N T E N T
The French government posted a video this weekend of Ivanka Trump embarrassing herself in front of world leaders at the G20 summit in Osaka, Japan. It was worse than when George H.W. Bush vomited on the Japanese prime minister's lap, because no one actually elected Ivanka to puke stupidity on the global stage.
Sweet Christ. Ivanka is so pathetic we'd almost feel sorry for her if she wasn't a complicit member of a crime family. Professionals who study body language or anyone who's attended a party in their lives can see how awkward this is. It's like "the idiot at a dinner party with New York intellectuals scene" from every Woody Allen film. Canadian prime minister Justin Trudeau, UK prime minister Theresa May, French president Emmanuel Macron, and IMF chairwoman Christine Lagarde -- serious human beings -- are trying to have a serious conversation when the grifter princess talk blocks them to Lagarde's obvious disgust. This is what she had to contribute:
IVANKA: And in terms of the defense side, the whole, uh, ecosystem, it's been very male dominant, so...
Oh, she was so proud of that sentence she almost finished. Her mom is going to frame that sentence and hang it on her refrigerator.
Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez correctly observed that Ivanka is barely qualified to stand upright let alone represent the United States at an economic summit. It's bad enough Donald Trump is there. He could at least spring for some professional diplomats. Conservatives around the world rushed to defend the president's likely 2020 running mate from the mean Congress lady.
These assholes love to throw AOC's former side hustle in her face. Bartending is a real job, one Ivanka's never had. We think bartenders serve a more valuable public service than charlatans who "run" fake charities. Check out what Ivanka's wearing, by the way. The lady can't even dress right, and fashion was kinda what she used to do. We bet Ocasio-Cortez could still whip up a solid Vesper.
Again, for the stupid people watching Fox News in the back, Ocasio-Cortez studied international relations and economics at Boston University. She interned in the immigration office of Senator Ted Kennedy. She was a John F. Lopez fellow and piloted literary programs in the South Bronx. She won international science competitions in high school and has an asteroid named after her. It's a small asteroid, but she seems to like it. She also launched a book publishing firm in 2012. Ocasio-Cortez is not just qualified to serve in Congress. She's almost qualified to deliver Alec Baldwin's "I am God!" speech from Malice .
What burns us most about the bartender digs is that Ocasio-Cortez worked 18-hour shifts to help her family. Her father had recently died and her mother was cleaning houses and driving a school bus. Conservatives claim to care about "work ethic," but they have no problem with job-shaming someone who doesn't even have that job anymore.
Look, you can disagree with Ocasio-Cortez's politics, but you can't deny reality and argue she's not exceptional. There's a conservative need to believe people of color can fall ass backwards into fame and fortune, but that's not how the world works (usually). Major systemic failures are why Ivanka was breathing the same air as the head of the IMF. They are not why Ocasio-Cortez is in the House. If she'd done nothing but work as a bartender, Ocasio-Cortez still won a primary and a general election, both without help from a hostile foreign power. That's all the qualification the Constitution demands.
Ivanka's "resume" involves working for her father or people who want to keep her father happy. Sarah Huckabee Sanders claimed that Ivanka "creates" jobs and Ocasio-Cortez "destroys" them. This is a lie. (We're not counting "careers" in sweat shops.) The president's daughter is not in Ocasio-Cortez's league, and it's ridiculous to try to prove otherwise. Ivanka doesn't take a salary because that's the only way her non-job is even legal. There's nothing noble about exploiting loopholes in anti-nepotism laws -- laws, we remind you, that were designed to protect world leaders from exposure to airborne idiocy. Ivanka can afford to haunt the White House without pay because she's already rich, and the salary she "sacrifices" is a bargain-rate price to pay for access and an inflated sense of self-importance. Plus some sweet Chinese patents on the side.

Ivanka Trump is a con woman. She lied to investors of Trump Organization branded condo developments that 80% of the units had been sold when the truth was it wasnt even 20%. She's lucky lying to customers is the American way or she might be in jail right now.
LOL that's kind of funny.
but this? here is the real con woman
the left has always known how to accuse others of that which they do.
but luckily, that crap only works so long... eventually their bs is revealed.
people are waking up to this fact every day, time is never on the lefts side.
at this point, the left is becoming more pathetic and funnier by the day.
cheers
Bartending is a real job, one Ivanka's never had.
Ivanka was the CEO of a large clothing company.
The dummy AOC (who owns herself on twitter almost daily) maybe learned how to make a rob roy before somehow being elected to Congress by what one can only assume is the congressional district filled with the biggest idiots in the country. They should have followed Nancy Pelosi and just elected a glass of water with a d after it. It would have been less embarrassing.
Only because of daddy's money, not because of anything she earned. I noticed that you did, rightfully, not describe it as a "successful" clothing company. So kudos to you for keeping the claim honest.
She didn't earn that position on her own. If she wasn't a Trump she would be working retail at Bloomingdales. She is just as much of a fraud as her father is.
Sure.
Because women with ivy league degrees have to work retail without their father's help.
What a sexist claim
If she wasn't a Trump she would not have attended Choate or Wharton either. She got where she is because of family money that predates her father's abilities.
Can you prove that?
Which is all many have.
What has she accomplished on her own without her father's assistance?
She was sued for stealing the designs of another designer.
She is part of a family of grifters.
epistte, some people look up to that sort of thing. Probably including some right here.
so no proof she couldnt get into school on her own then
Prove she did. Prove Trump did too, for that matter. It goes both ways.
How?
The funny thing is Sean as dumb as you think that she is, she has the chance to have a much bigger affect on your life than you ever will on hers....
Ironic isn't it.
Is it?
Progressives must love irony then, given how often they claim the President is dumb.
[deleted]
As you're aware Sean we aren't discussing Trump. Your comment was regarding Cortez and my point was that as dumb as you think she is, she has the chance to make a bigger affect on your life than you on hers...
It is ironic.
My point is so what?
Dumb people effect the world through their idiocy all the time. Is that news?
But this dumb person (your description) does have the chance to make a change in your life...
Irony
Your point is, "So what?" No. You lack a point.
Does anyone think dumb people don’t often have an outsized impact on the world?
You don’t understand what irony is.
LOL, you're the one that is telling us that AOC is stupid. That's your opinion Sean. I'm sure that AOC has her opinion of you as well. It's probably not very flattering.
Maybe cunning could be added to her list of attributes. Recently she claimed that illegal aliens detained in detention centers were forced to drink from toilets.
Does anyone know what she was talking about?
She was referring to the combination sink/toilet units which have separate plumbing. It looks like this:
That's what Cortez is calling "forced drinking from a toilet"
She also got three Pinocchios awarded to her by none other than The Washington Post's Glenn Kessler.
Wasn't Cortez also confused about garbage disposals?
This is her quote Vic...
You can offer proof that it isn't true any time.
According to the New York Post..
"The 29-year-old freshman congresswoman posted photos and videos on Instagram showing the apparently “terrifying” contraption at work in her swanky DC apartment and saying she’d never seen one before.
“OK everyone I need your help because I just moved into this apartment a few months ago and I just flipped a switch and it made that noise and it scared the daylights out of me,” Ocasio-Cortez can be heard saying in footage.
“I am told this is a garbage disposal. I’ve never seen a garbage disposal. I never had one in any place I’ve ever lived,” she later said."
So much for sending our children to Boston University
It don't work that way. Cortez made the claim, she needs to prove it!
I just showed you what she claims is drinking from a toilet!
You're the one saying it's a lie Vic...Were you there, how do you know it's a lie.
I'm hoping that there is a investigation of the BP FB group. Perhaps we'll know for sure who is lying. At the present time it looks like the BP FB group is in trouble.
Now it's your turn - prove to us that migrants were forced to drink from toilets!
I await your source/proof.
I won't hold my breath though.
The agent on scene said the congresswoman misrepresented why a person in custody had drunk from a toilet:.
“So this is what happened with the migrant and drinking water from toilet: she wanted water, didn’t know how to use the faucet in the cell, and drank from the toilet. She never told AOC that we made her drink from the toilet. AOC, of course, changed it … This was when she [the migrant] was apprehended and brought into the facility,
I'm hopeful that the BP group will be fully investigated...The results will be interesting to say the least.
I don't know about the ''folks'' but I didn't say it was true or false, only the the accusasion was made by AOC....Time will tell if it's true or not.
I put my trust in those who run Homeland Security not AOC.
I'm hoping that there is a investigation of the BP FB group.
I'm sure the democratic House will do just that now that moderate democrats helped to place gavels in their hands.
Perhaps we'll know for sure who is lying.
I think it's that endless flood of migrants that provides the answer.
At the present time it looks like the BP FB group is in trouble.
Actually, it's the democratic party that's in deep trouble. They have told us they want open borders and benefits for the aliens to be paid for by the American taxpayer. I foresee the collapse of a political party. You know what that means, right? All of this concern for illegal aliens will be rightfully replaced by a concern for the American people. It won't be long.
Yes, Sean, those are the facts.
I believe it's called "Denial Aisle"
I just wanted to be sure that you weren't including me in with the ''folks''...Thanks for clarifying that.
You'd have to ask them about that. I posted what she said, I didn't say if it was true or false. Are they unfounded? I don't know and neither do you...
I'm willing to see what an investigation of the BP (FB group) and the accusations made by the politicians that were part of the group that visited the area have to say.
If there is an investigation it could be very interesting.
Oh really how about this:
"Rev. Samuel Rodriguez was "full of indignation" when he saw the reports and heard from politicians about the deplorable and inhumane conditions for illegal immigrants at an El Paso County, Texas migrant detention center. But what he saw at the same facility toured by Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y. with a group of pastors was "drastically different."
The president of the National Hispanic Christian Leadership Conference, the world's largest Hispanic Christian organization, and senior pastor of New Seasons Christian Worship Center in Sacramento shared his firsthand experience touring a migrant detention center during a press briefing Monday.
“I read the reports, saw the news clips. I just wanted to see what was actually happening in order to better enable our efforts to find a fair and a just solution to our broken immigration system," Rodriguez, who has advised President Trump and both Presidents Barack Obama and George W. Bush on immigration reform, noted. “To my surprise, I saw something drastically different from the stories I’ve been hearing in our national discourse. Even as a veteran of immigration advocacy in the U.S., I was shocked at the misinformation of the crisis at the border."
The group of pastors saw a very different picture described by Ocasio-Cortez and other politicians and media outlets.
“We found no soiled diapers, no deplorable conditions and no lack of basic necessities,” Rodriguez remarked, adding he specifically asked border agents if they staged the facility in response to the negative press. “They unequivocally denied it — we were witnessing the identical conditions the attorneys saw when they toured the facility days earlier."
In fact, some told him the sources from whom the negative coverage originated “never toured the areas of the facility that we toured” and speculated they might have had political motivations.
The pastors left encouraged by the commitment and dedication of America’s Border Patrol and immigration officers, “many of which are Latinos, by the way.” He said one emotional Border Patrol agent turned to him and said, referring to the vilification: “Pastor Sam, what they’re saying about us is completely false. We care about these kids and have a passion for our calling.”
Prove it.
wait a minute.... people were drinking water? like, from the toilet?
Don't sell a girl short. That's a thing not a lot of people know how to do.
And she plagiarized her shoe designs.
Not a fan of AOC either, though - the whole stunt with "not feeling safe" when she visited the border ...
The latest is that migrants in detention centers are drinking toilet water!
So you approve it when Trump does it, but it's not OK when she does it?
I never expected "whataboutism" from you. The topic here is the random comparison of two women.
Again, for the moronic assholes watching CNN & MSNBC, she is proof positive that higher education dosen't quite mean much anymore.

Wonkette is a little too honest to post here everyday. It would definitely freak some people out.
For somebody that takes exception to the way the President talks, you seem to like the talk coming from the other direction.
Yeah, I expect more from the president of the United States than I do from a comedy web site, you got me there Vic.
You obviously don't care about a great economy or American sovereignty. You really think that how he sounds is that important? I'm starting to think you just like liberal policies. We aren't going back to that!
Trump is a moron. And a con man, and a criminal, and a malignant narcissist. There is no way he should be the leader of the United States of America. He is degrading our national character every day.
He's an amazing man.
Welcome back
Don't know either personally, but do know one was elected to serve in her capacity and one had Daddy give her a job.
Yup, AOC was elected, just like Marion Barry!
Wasn't his constituent either.
You are very fortunate.
Not to mention the "physical and sexual" assaults she suffered at their hands during her "visit".
Well now this is going to get interesting...A tweet and 9181 people talking about it.
The latest story seems to throw a lot of cold water on that and some hot water on the BP...Are either one true, inquiring minds want to know.
She knows how to stage a photo too...
So much agony over an empty parking lot. Hillary would have known to plant a supporters kid on the other side of the fence to give it real pathos.
Seems that there is going to be a lot of agony in the ranks of the BP after the latest expose about their behavior.
Which in no way excuses AOC from her false narratives.
I don't know if they are false and neither do you Ronin. The point being that the BP really fucked up and it's by a large portion of the membership.
It's reported that that there are 9,500 members, some retired, that belong to the FB group. The total number of BP agent is around 19,500.
I also explained the ''Democrats own this whole mess'' for you in another comment....Reading comprehension is a valuable attribute...Try it.
I find this pot shot delightfully ironic given that this story is constructed around Twitter posts.
Back to the real world.
Ivanka for pole dancer.
AOC sits in The Congress.
Sad that a spoiled heiress gets to use taxpayer dollars running around the world pretending she's somebody special and was never elected to office by the American people. A wealthy elitist spoiled heiress is spending taxpayer dollars, that is the real issue, she was never elected and has no qualifications outside fashion design. I think abusing the highest office in the land in order to indulge blatant nepotism is easily an impeachable offense. Every American should be offended by this.
Has AOC figured out how to use the garbage disposal, or even if she should yet? That decision could take her a life time.
Let us know once she has figured out a way to capture cow farts. The world must be saved!
Does she still think that unemployment is low because people are working two or more jobs?
AOC is an embarrassment to this country. Nancy Pelosi has a real high opinion of AOC's constituents (and her own).
Just love the left's hypocrisy. Any woman they even think is remotely conservative needs to be attacked. A moron Democrat is elected, and they hang on and defend her every word.
"The leaders appear to be talking about women's rights or female representation"
It was terrible seeing a "Women" trying to engage with "Men" talking about "Women" (the discussion), and see the "Men" ignore "Her" !
AOC is just a "Child" trying to sound important, with the ideas of a 3 year old that wants some "Candy", anyway they can get it !
