Ivanka Booed in Germany

Generally an unmoderated forum for discussion of pretty much any topic. The focus however, is usually politics.

Ivanka Booed in Germany

Ivanka Trump gets booed, hissed at during Berlin event

The first daughter was put on the spot during her first trip abroad as a representative of America.


BERLIN — Ivanka Trump arrived in Berlin on Tuesday morning armed with facts and figures to recite at what was expected to be a highbrow international summit to discuss women's entrepreneurship, alongside German Chancellor Angela Merkel.

But on her first trip abroad as an official representative of the United States, the first daughter was put on the spot about her father's attitudes toward women, booed and hissed at by the crowd, and grilled by the moderator about what, exactly, her role is in President Donald Trump’s administration.

“You’re the first daughter of the United States, and you’re also an assistant to the president,” said the moderator, WirtschaftsWoche editor-in-chief Miriam Meckel. “The German audience is not that familiar with the concept of a first daughter. I’d like to ask you, what is your role, and who are you representing, your father as president of the United States, the American people, or your business?”

She looked like paris kardashian standing on stage with intellectual giants.
Trump: “We had the safest border in the history of our country - or at least recorded history. I guess maybe a thousand years ago it was even better.”

She's supposedly a moderating influence. Cripes, how much worse could things be?

Bill O’Reilly Lost His Job, But Fox Promoted His Racist Protege
Jesse Watters will now regularly be in primetime.


... although O’Reilly lost his primetime perch, the network promoted his protege, Jesse Watters, who will now have a permanent spot on another primetime show, “The Five.”

These days, Watters is best known for producing perhaps the most racist segment on cable news in recent memory. He went to New York City’s Chinatown and mockingly interviewed residents there, many of whom couldn’t speak English well. He peppered the segment with every Asian stereotype in the book....

Jesse Watters went to Chinatown and asked, “Do you know karate?”
Fox’s Jesse Watters sparks controversy with suggestive Ivanka Trump remark

Less than a week after Bill O’Reilly was ousted from Fox News amid mounting sexual harassment allegations, his former protégé is facing a backlash over an on-air remark about Ivanka Trump.

During a discussion on Fox’s “The Five” about Trump’s participation in a women’s empowerment panel Tuesday, Jesse Watters criticized the crowd for booing and hissing the first daughter when she described her father as a “champion” for women and families.

“Yeah, it’s funny, the left says they’ll really respect women and then when given an opportunity to respect a woman like that they boo and hiss,” Watters said. “So I don’t really get what’s going on here, but, uh, I really like the way she was speaking into that microphone.”

Online, many viewed the comment as crude.
Heckuva culture change
A microphone is just a microphone, unless you're a bro from 20th Century Fox. (Is he Beavis or Butthead?)
But Watters insisted he was referring to her voice....
So, either he's a crude sexist or Faux Noise has a featured commentator that's so stupid and inarticulate that he comes across as one.

Can't say I'm too surprised about it.

That's exactly the kind of stuff that fox news viewers appreciate.

Speaks right to the lowest common denominator brow.
