(DEBUNKED!) Ivanka Trump in 2006: "If he wasn't my father, I would spray him with Mace."

Last edited Fri Nov 25, 2016, 05:14 PM - Edit history (1)

Snopes says this is FAKE.

In my defense, I actually checked the original source in the Chicago Tribune before I posted to verify. I guess you can't trust anyone these days.

* FALSE STORY BELOW *

The president-elect has been known to say disgusting things about his daughter, most notably, that he'd be interested in dating her if he wasn't her father.

A newly uncovered quote from a 2006 Chicago Tribune piece revealed Donald Trump's eldest daughter, Ivanka, is definitely creeped out by her dad.

Writer Sarah Kendzior found and tweeted a screenshot of the piece on Thursday, in which Ivanka says: "If he wasn't my father, I would spray him with Mace." The piece goes on to say Ivanka's statement was in response to "her father complimenting her figure."

I'm sure somewhere in family photos, there's a picture of me as a young teenager looking at my father with admiration. That ain't admiration on her face. As for the second one, it's just too creepy to comment on. All I know is I stopped sitting on my dad's lap somewhere around 8 years old. I never doubted his love for me, or his willingness to protect me at all costs. Hugs & encouragement were normal and frequent, but that kind of stuff? Uh, NO!

I confess I'm sorry to learn she didn't say that, but find that easier to accept than that she did. She is already famous for her tremendous poise and control in public, and the only reason I believed it at all was that she was so young at the time. And I thought I saw it in the paper when I checked. Shame on me.

Well, I have been rather niggardly with my use of the great word, titillation; that will change.

I never said I was disgusted, I honestly think it is funny and now from a glance at the top, this has been debunked.

Oh, by the way my dear boy, who are you to tell me anything? They never did find the body of my last nanny; I am sure she just left on her own.

I looked through this thread and you are seriously having a bad case of the vapors; new to the Internet are you?

No bigotry/insensitivity
Members are expected to respect diversity and demonstrate an appropriate level of sensitivity when discussing related topics. Racism, sexism, homophobia, transphobia, anti-Semitism, Islamophobia, or other forms of bigoted intolerance are not permitted.

Why we have this rule: Democratic Underground is a diverse community which includes people of every race, sex, religious belief (or lack thereof), sexual orientation, gender identity, body type, disability, age, etc. We want to promote a welcoming atmosphere for all of our members, and do not want to provide a platform for bigotry.


I try to be as knowledgeable as possible when it comes to bigotry. Did I miss something here? I just don't see it. And yes, Trump is an insensitive scum bag. I don't get what that has to do with being alertable.

...and for those who didn't read the whole article, it was apparently a joke made by Conan O'Brien rather than a joke made by Ivanka. Its the sort of thing a comedian would say in that context, likely and believable as such.

Just to add - as much as I dislike the personality, politics and person of trump, I don't pretend to know much about Melania or Ivanka. I'm not going to dislike or judge or deride them without cause.
