Clothes and jewelry designs galore and women entrepreneurs are probably easier to steal from than huge fashion giants, who may be running a bit dry for Ivanka.

Remember that bangle she was touting after some meeting she wasn't supposed to be in, that cost $10K, that thing had barely any design, imagine what she copy from place where bangles are everyday wear and there are gazillions of designs to be "inspired" by.

All of these little excursions are just opportunities for Ivanka to make a buck. She will exploit the trip and the people she meets in some way or another. She always does.

She's as disgusting as her lying, soulless, piggish father.

women toiling away in a sweatshop, then yes. China, India. What's next? She'll probably be heading up a delegation in Vietnam pretty soon.

Now in Injia’s sunny clime,
Where I used to spend my time
A-servin’ of ’Er Majesty the Queen,
Of all them blackfaced crew
The finest man I knew
Was our regimental bhisti, Gunga Din


The sun never sets on the tRump empire!

He thinks the white man's burden is steal from people, not pay for work done and leer at young girls (and more if the testimony of some of his victims holds any water).
