Trump's personal lap-dancer, Ivanka, is just as detached from reality as her idiot father. Ivanka Trump Just Wants Americans to Love the Jobs They Don’t Have In the midst of record pandemic-related unemployment, the first daughter is urging laid off or unsatisfied workers to #FindSomethingNew. Millions of Americans have lost their jobs in a pandemic that’s still spiraling out of control in the United States. Many of those who are working, sometimes at great personal risk, are struggling to keep the jobs they have. Those who aren’t are looking at a grim job market whose moderate gains in recent months have been tempered by the long-term economic uncertainty wrought by a public health crisis. To the untrained eye, this would seem to be an exceedingly precarious time for a job search. But if you ask Ivanka Trump, first daughter and former eponymous clothing brand owner, it’s the perfect time to “find something new.” www.vanityfair.com/news/2020/07/ivanka-trump-wants-americans-to-love-jobs-they-dont-have-find-something-new

Well it's easy to get another job when daddy hands them out to you like party favors. What you're telling me you don't have a rich daddy that will give you companies and political positions along with your husband?

Nepotism Barbie could get a job on The Price Is Right. How is this not a violation of the Hatch Act?

She apparently lacks any self awareness.

If only there were programs that subsidized training people for new careers, and that we had consistently helped educate people to get into careers where we have shortages due to a lack of education. If only someone were talking about making both universities as well as job training programs affordable.
Now that you have lost your job, can't pay your rent and put your health at risk every time you leave the house, making a jump should be a piece of cake, which the Trumps will let you eat.

More beans for the buck!

My Daughter is a college student. Hopefully she will be Done in December.
She worked at Starbucks for several years and then quit to Work at An Airline. She worked at The airline about 1 year before the Pandemic Hit and they laid off most of their workforce. They offered Severance packages to employees and 17,000 employees excluding pilots took them up on the offer. DD is gambling that they will call her back within the 2 years she has to be called back, so she passed on the severance. It is still a pretty big gamble as it probably will take all of 2 years for the travel industry to recover.
anyways, she had talked to some people she knew at SBUX about working with them. She last was a Shift Supervisor. They gave her name to another Manger looking for employees. She was re-hired, but they did not tell her they were rehiring her at less than $10 per hour. In the entry level position of Barista she last earned something like $12.61 and she earned even more as a Shift. DD told the Manager she will work the 3 weeks of shifts she is scheduled for, but after that, she will not stay if she does not get more $$. The manager needs shifts, but has not decided if she is going to promote DD give her the $$ she is asking for.
BTW, hired with my DD is a girl that just graduated with a BS in Accounting. She is working at SBUX until next January when she anticipates being able to complete her internship. The internship she had scheduled for this spring went away with the Pandemic, and she was unable to secure a different one.
It is not that easy to just go out and get a different job, and there are so many people looking for work they are paying crap for wages.

More beans for the buck! I'm so glad you said that. I had always seen them as the bargain brand, and didn't feel their products were quality. And when I saw this go down, I was trying to remember why I thought that. I'm sure I had the beans once, but I don't remember specifically why I avoided the brand after that.

Like Dondub, I have pretty much stuck to Bush beans or Kirkland's.

At this point, the only one of his spoiled, sorry, self-indulgent spawn with any hope is Barron, the youngest. The rest are just wasted space, like their father. Seriously, I am so hoping that Barron will someday announce that he is gay and rejecting the family legacy to join the military. That would make his old man's head explode in a big orange ball of plastered hair and pancake makeup.

She might be, but she stays under the radar, so right there she is better than the other dickweeds.

Programs for educating Americans? Are you kidding me you radical socialist mobster? They need to pull themselves up by the bootstraps and work 100 hours a week! We need more tax cuts that will trickle down! They can get their healthcare at the emergency room! What did I miss as part of the Republican strategy?

Not repugnant, but Valley Girl-level clueless and brainless. I think her mother is still doing a decent job minding her, but that won't last. Once the little airhead is away from Mommy and out in the world (on daddy's dime) I don't think she'll be worth much. She is (or was) attending Georgetown Law School. No doubt big bucks were paid to get her there. Nope, I think Barron is the last hope. When he grows up, I hope his tell-all book is a best seller. And he and his husband are on the dust jacket.

With Melania as a mother, I imagine the apple will not fall far from the tree. I give Tiffany a better chance. Marla Maples got her away from trump as a young child, and while she seems clueless, she has not had near the exposure Barron has had.

I don't know why you'd have hope for Barron except for the fact he appears to be Trump's last child. Melania married him for money knowing how he treated and cheated on his two prior wives. Her big ask was having one kid with him and having him treated equally with Donald's first three children in his will. Barron is living with Trump at the height of his arrogance. Who could he possibly learn from is this environment to be a better person? Plus Melania believes personality wise Barron is most like Trump of all his children.

It looks like she is likely a total douchebag, like the rest of them. I don't have much hope for Barron either. Nothing against the poor kid specifically. I just don't think he will overcome that kind of toxic family.

Actually Tiffany does not get much of daddy’s wealth. I think he pays for her school and then gives her like 500 bucks spending money per month. I read an article about trumps kids in 2016 and literally if his kids are not living with him, seeing him frequently, they are out of sight out of mind. Doesn’t mean she’s a stellar citizen, but I don’t think she’s loaded with daddy’s cash.

I mean, he's boob-height to her. I know she's not a child anymore and she can decide what she wants to do with her life, but what is on the Internet stays on the Internet. Who is going to take you seriously seeing this? OK, with Trump as a last name...no one, but that's beside the point. This picture just screams "Yeah, we did more than just sit on that couch drinking tea."

I'm not getting this?
There's a painting of Tiffany, and then she is posing for a photo with someone in front of the painting?
I'm not seeing a big deal here?
