Ivanka Trump’s message to Americans unlocked the boss level of patronising – 11 scathing responses
In what was presumably supposed to be an inspirational address to Americans, Ivanka Trump managed to unlock the boss level of patronising, assuring people that the hardships they face right now would make them better people – as they had for her.

Her choice of background presented an opportunity.
Not sure whose bright idea it was to have her deliver this message in front of a blue background, but… I made some edits. https://t.co/ZlMIoa22wr pic.twitter.com/CpmiujXpEw

Seeing as Ivanka had invoked the name of Star Wars, Mark Hamill deserves the last word with this comprehensive takedown of the President.
Sadly for our country, your father fails in every aspect of that Joseph Campbell quote. He has proven himself completely unready to be President. He has shown his "character" & how profoundly unworthy & unfit he is for the office he holds. A real hero would realize this & resign. https://t.co/JpApPoFffg
