    Well, sometimes, sometimes not, depending on the region, country, habits, traditions.
    This is basically what a certain type of illinformed, simple-minded and simplifying American ignorami think.

    I really enjoyed your commentary. Something rather refreshing around here because so few are willing to admit they may be wrong.

    Good insight, too. As it is, I love Bannon, at least, I think Milo and Breitbart are heroes amidst a mountain of egos and foolish ideals. But I surely do not blame anyone for not wanting him around. I also love Trump even though he cannot explain himself well when he speaks --- if he could, he could overcome all of the enemies around him including the odious media. This nation is sick because it has no interest in God, simple as that.

    Still, I think you are one of the good guys even if we disagree. Maybe you could explain this paragraph better >> "...Entrepreneurs don't..want support from anyone but pull up by own shoe laces types? WHO is going to invest in their businesses? I mean for that organization? To me? Height of stupidity on their part and showing their own lack of inclusivity. Eh but we are talking about Germany eh?"

    I agree with you POTUS needs to set the example and yes use his influence to set the broad goals for our country then the worker bees fly out and implement.

    I hate it when Presidents try to micromanage

    However a POTUS isn't God just the most powerful man on Earth but still in the end just one man so as such he needs advice, influence and support from people he trusts just like we all do.

    I don't recall any other presidential families being treated this viciously.

    It also makes little sense for Liberals to attack Ivanka, given that she shares many of their views. What is their goal? To drive her out of the White House staff? Did they even think that through, at all? It's like saying, "I hate this president so I hate his daughter that agrees with me. So, I'm going to shame her out of town, so the president has less people with my views surrounding him". #seemslikegoodplan

    The thread is about Ivanka. And haven't seen much, if anything on Baron.

    I tend to agree here, personally if I was Ivanka I would have ignored Germany / Merkel given the current environment but I'll give her credit for being willing to make the effort and try to accomplish something positive despite the protests of the vocal minority.

    And many brought up his 'kids' of which Baron is one. The reason you haven't heard much about Baron is because of the backlash a SNL lib received for bashing him on twitter

    I think they're rude and smell like cheese but, that's just me.

    The only interaction I get with them on their own turf is through sporting events.

    It's a justified response to the OP. There are often reasons for 'stereotypes'.

    Another reason to dump NATO.

    A majority of German's love rapists because they keep importing more and more into Germany deliberately.

    Yes, I think Ivanka might have been copping some of the flak from her fathers boorish behaviour to Angela Merkel.

    i'm sure, unfortunately it comes with the territory, its not like we're talking about mr. clean here, lets face it, he's a billionaire gruff NY businessman with 2 generations of money and somehow backed himself into the presidency, and he hasn't changed much since its become official. (my primary concern about him from the get go)

    I'm hopeful that it was just a vocal minority that unfortunately seems to be getting a voice more on the surface than ever before. Similar to the stupid flying shoe with Bush, back in the day it gets dismissed and the one crazy shoe guy is ignored, fast forward and all of a sudden its a 2 day discussion.

    Personal Opinon but I think it started around Ford/Carter era when it became "okay" to directly insult the POTUS, and gradually migrated from Reagan (i do not recall), to Bush (read my lips), Clinton (I did not have sexual relations...), BushII (aw shucks)....

    By the time we got to Obama who was pretty much the most polished president we've had in 30 years and nobody gives a chit, social media takes over and by then an entire generation had totally forgoten that we're supposed to treat the position with respect. And that includes Ivanka, who I have zero issues with.

    Enter 2016, we elect Mr Word Salad and its a firestorm, now we actually have a reason to mock the position but to me it still seems ugly to me, we crossed the line so long ago that now its not only acceptable but I find myself criticized for not for not criticizing the POTUS, its a lose lose.

    So, should Ivanka have to take chit and some blowback over daddy's indiscretions? absolutely yes, will anything positive come out of it? absolutely no

    What I would hope is that the media learns to ignore such incidences, screw the boo's and don't give them airtime, unless your goal is division.

    What is this obsession of yours with Germany? Every time this topic comes up you spit out a barage of brainless insults and idiotic claims.
    You seem to find pleasure in this. Are you seriously that dumb and primitive?

    Um... good. And now we're talking about who we should be talking about, that is if we should be talking about people at all and not issues.

    Agree absolutely. You're known by the company you keep, and that includes families. Unfortunately, we can't turn back the clock to a more polite time. How many people knew about "mattress Jack" until twenty years after his death?
    There was a polite agreement in the media not to report on such things. Now, it's no holds barred and compounded by the quality of the politicians.

    I think Ivanka should consider the events she attend and who she truly represents. It's ridiculous for her to promote her father's policies at a women's event... she was asking for it, his treatment of women is appealing (appalling), what was she thinking?

    Yes, she was way outclassed at that meeting and she appeared to be a propaganda tool.

    Yes and if you look at the OP while they questioned her intently, the women only booed her when she promoted her father's policies

    It doesn't say much for Merckel that she got back at Trump through his daughter, either.
