El Caudillo del Mar-a-Lago must be sweating Michael Cohen's upcoming testimony this week, because he's activated his human shield again. It's Ivanka Week in the news! First, there was this gigantic whopper of a truthless lie. From Fortune:
My daughter, Ivanka, who is going to be speaking later, is—she has been so much involved. So incredibly involved. My daughter has created millions of jobs. I don’t know if anyone knows that, but she’s created millions of jobs.
As the Intertoobz exploded in awe and delight at the majesty of this lofty mountain of complete bullshit, the princess herself took to Fox News, via Axios, to make her pitch for the kind of rugged individualism that is exemplified by her whole life.
I don’t think most Americans, in their heart, want to be given something. ... People want to work for what they get. So, I think that this idea of a guaranteed minimum is not something most people want.
I dunno. A guaranteed minimum of pronouncements from this worthless pack of grifters is something I could get behind.
