At the G-20 summit in Hamburg, Ivanka Trump was spotted taking her daddy’s seat and all hell broke loose on social media.
Criticisms ranged from we did not vote for Ivanka to accusations about Trump running a family business. Americans did not spare Trump at all.
Then daddy came back and gave them a good talking to with this retort:
When I left Conference Room for short meetings with Japan and other countries, I asked Ivanka to hold seat. Very standard. Angela M agrees!

If Chelsea Clinton were asked to hold the seat for her mother,as her mother gave our country away, the Fake News would say CHELSEA FOR PRES!

To which Americans jumped up in protest. Here’s what they think of Trump and the family dynasty he’s building and Chelsea Clinton versus the Trump children:
In which America?
No one would have said that

Wrong. Media would have criticized Hillary too.

Quit the family feud
It's beyond time for the president to end his obsession with losing the popular vote to Hillary & focus on proper governance.

To be clear, Ivanka wasn't wrong in sitting in Trump's seat 'coz she's part of the administration team. A President can ask any member…
— Anirvan Ghosh (@anirvanghosh) July 10, 2017
…And the nepotism
…of his team to deputize for him in meetings where he isn't present. BUT, the reason this became a huge issue is the constant nepotism…
— Anirvan Ghosh (@anirvanghosh) July 10, 2017
…that is seen in Trump's administration, where ill-qualified people of his family are wielding influential roles. That's unethical.

Buy some class- and a few degrees
HRC praised Trump's kids at a debate. Now Trump tries to use Chelsea as a political human shield. What a classless comment.

Conservative media savaged Chelsea. Rush Limbaugh compared her to a dog when she was 12 years old. Your kids have never faced that scrutiny.
— Adam Best (@adamcbest) July 10, 2017
Let's get real. If Chelsea sat in POTUS HRC's seat for five minutes everybody from Sean Hannity to Paul Ryan would be screaming impeachment.
— Adam Best (@adamcbest) July 10, 2017
Imagine HRC hiring Chelsea as a de facto FLOTUS, husband Marc Mezvinsky to be in charge of basically everything. Conservatives would freak.

* Jr. is a white nationalist stooge who colluded w/ foreign enemy
* Ivanka is the sweatshop queen
* Chelsea is winning humanitarian awards— Adam Best (@adamcbest) July 10, 2017
Chelsea received international relations doctoral degree @ Oxford after undergrad @ Stanford, 2 master's. Way more qualified than Trump kids
— Adam Best (@adamcbest) July 10, 2017
And … way more qualified than don the con #25thAmendmentNow

The left will flip
If Chelsea Clinton had been "asked to hold the seat for her mother", Republicans would have been outraged
— Edward Hardy (@EdwardTHardy) July 10, 2017
If Chelsea Clinton had been "asked to hold the seat for her mother", Fox News would've spent days criticising & attacking Chelsea & Hillary

Cue Chelsea gate
Chelsea-gate…and 10 Separate hearings.

It would've been "bladder gate."

Ooops…not sure you are allowed to mention anything regarding " leaks" on here (snort)…

Chelsea Clinton claps back:
Good morning Mr. President. It would never have occurred to my mother or my father to ask me. Were you giving our country away? Hoping not. https://t.co/4ODjWZUp0c
