... We are .. coming to the end of Workforce Development Week in the White House — an initiative that could also be described as Quick, Deflect Attention From ComeyGate and Improve Ivanka’s Image Week ...

... A turning point was March, when Saturday Night Live labelled Ivanka “complicit” in a spoof perfume commercial. Things went downhill from there: in April Ivanka was booed in Berlin and in May she faced ridicule for her ridiculous new book. Then, in June, the president’s decision to withdraw from the Paris climate agreements struck a serious blow to the idea that Ivanka is a moderating influence on him ...

On Tuesday ... a press briefing .. by .. Spicer and Secretary of Labor Alex Acosta was filled with praise for Ivanka. Acosta stated: “I especially want to thank the work that’s been done by Ivanka Trump … Her leadership on this issue has been invaluable.” Her name was mentioned six times in .. 20 minutes ...

... shortly after her “viciousness” comments .. Ivanka was on Instagram, blowing one of her trademark air kisses, to the internet. All long blonde hair and seductive, airy promises.
