Despite a mountain of evidence to the contrary, Ivanka Trump wants us to believe she gives a damn and possesses a heart and soul.
For four years, the president’s daughter has stood by and remained silent as the administration she’s a member of has put migrant children into internment camps, slashed spending for things such as healthcare and food assistance, and repeatedly railed against anyone who dares to criticize their misguided policies.
Now, however, Ivanka has decided that she’s going to be a champion for anti-lockdown activists, even though her argument completely ignored medical science, HuffPost notes:
“The first daughter made her comments in a retweet of a video of a Ventura, California, restaurant owner’s reaction to being cited for staying open in the face of a closure order.”
Not grounded in science? Is that right? Well, that’s just more propaganda (i.e. bullshit) from Ivanka:
“Ana Bento, an assistant professor at the School of Public Health at Indiana University Bloomington, told NPR that broad lockdowns are the simplest tool to break the chain of transmission and reduce the probability of people getting infected.
“’That’s the whole purpose of it,’ Bento said.”
But that was nothing compared to the shellacking Ivanka got from others on Twitter who reminded her of the grim death toll (over 300,000 Americans dead) from coronavirus with her father as president:
Do us all a huge favor, Vanky: Sit your ass down and shut the hell up!
