Princess Hijabi: ‘How would Ivanka’s mysteriously defined job be any different if she were a real princess?’

Mod: Just what America needs now. A princess wearing a hijab, flying around the world on our dime, and saying who knows what to assorted dictators and sultans. For what possible purpose?

‘How is Ivanka’s mysteriously defined job different if she were a princess?’: Americans blast ‘Princess Trump’ (Raw Storylink): President Donald Trump’s family has been criticized for trying to become known as American royals. The president’s eldest daughter, who works for the White House in a non-descript job for no salary, but travels the world representing the United States.

Such was the case over the weekend where Ivanka appeared at a female entrepreneurship conference in Dubai. She was photographed and filmed at the Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque in Abu Dhabi fully covered and wearing a hijab, as is the country’s requirement for women.

But photos and videos of her excursion drew questions from some online wondering what she was supposed to be doing. Responses were swift, particularly when it came to the fact that she was wearing a hijab, something for which Republicans have blasted Democratic women for wearing the headscarf.

With One Tweet, Obama Takes Credit For The Economy Back From Trump (PoliticusUSAlink): Former President Barack Obama reminded everyone who is really responsible for the current economy with a single tweet marking the anniversary of the Recovery Act.

Trump’s biggest contribution to economic policy was a massive tax cut for the wealthy and corporations that he promised would generate 6% growth, jobs, and pay for itself. None of these things have happened. Growth has slowed, the tax cut has blown a trillion-dollar hole in the deficit, and the wave of good-paying jobs never came. The Trump tax cut had no positive impact on jobs.

Trump’s first three years of job growth are worse than Obama’s, as the economy is slowing under the current president.

The credit for the growth that has been achieved belongs to Barack Obama. Trump hasn’t created the greatest economy in history. He has ridden Obama’s coattails and sabotaged growth with a massive tax cut for the wealthy and corporations that are so toxic that even Republicans won’t campaign on it.

The economy was primed for takeoff when Obama left office, but under Trump, the middle class and poor are being left behind as prosperity is a gated community for the rich only.
