Ivanka Trump’s image is badly in need of a makeover. If you recall, the last time Princess Purses was on the scene it was the day of the Insurrection. Since then she’s been off radar.
But wars and revolutions have a way to putting a new spin on things and so Ivanka has figured out a way to rehabilitate her Marie Antoinette image by becoming the Florence Nightingale of Ukraine. I’m sure that you caught Chapter One of Ivanka’s new role on the world stage, that of joining the war effort and feeding hungry and displaced Ukrainians. Very noble purpose, that. If it went down the way she depicted and there’s already some dispute about that.
Ivanka claimed she paid for "a million meals for the Ukrainian people."
In fact, she lent her name to humanitarian efforts already spearheaded by Trump favorable organizations (Paula White ministry, etc.)
Here is Ivanka's reading & actual footage of the "one million meals."

So, did she in fact pay for a million meals or did she merely lend her name to an organization that was in the process of helping with the war effort already?
In simple terms, the difference would be if I said I had paid for a million cats and dogs to be fed and the truth was that I had contributed my annual $10 to the ASPCA and they fed the animals, using my donation, your donation, all the donations. We’ll take her at her word but also keep an eye out for details of how much actual cash she personally donated.
Meanwhile, here is today’s tweet and a simple reading indicates that the president of Poland has asked for her assistance.
Thank you Mr. President @prezydentpl ! I feel humbled to have been asked to assist in sending critical medical supplies to Ukraine via Poland.
The remaining supplies — enough to fill over 4 more C-130 Hercules cargo planes — will soon be on their way!
Grateful to all involved! https://t.co/UZuc7yVGwp

Here’s a translation of the tweet above.
Again, is the president of Poland getting on the horn, or email, and asking Ivanka personally to pay for the supplies going into those planes, or to load them up and run the show, OR, is it like my ASPCA example? Has she been “asked to assist” the same way I am every year, with a card in the mail? Is Poland taking donations from Ivanka, you, me, all of us and sending them to Ukraine, or is Ivanka playing a major role? Quite a world of difference.
It will be interesting to see how this develops and to closely follow the facts because my instinct is that she’s grandstanding and this is puffery. She’s making it sound like she has taken a major role in the war effort and it will be interesting to see if the facts bear this out.
If I’m wrong and she really has donated “a million meals” and the president of Poland has been burning up the phone wires to her, asking for her help, then I will document that. I would like to be wrong and I would like to see Ivanka rise to the occasion and become a great humanitarian. All I’m saying is that six years of writing about the Trump Crime Family will make a skeptic out of anyone.
A “Trump” NEVER does ANYTHING unless it directly benefits THEM. PERIOD. This must be the way she figures she will regain entry into New York society. Watch how she claims the tax credit for donating the “million meals”.
This is not a defense of princess but let’s face it, were it not for the tax bennies for charitable contributions, the wealthy by and large would not hand over one red cent to charity. One thing you can depend upon from humans is greed.
Well, I guess she found out there’s a serious, awful war taking place in some country overseas. She even might have thought things like that shouldn’t happen and it was a sad thing and wished it would all stop.
And THAT my friends is the extent of her “humanitarian” efforts. So-called “thoughts and prayers” and signing off on her Publicist’s recommendation that some of the groups who also supported her daddy be allowed to name drop her.
Jose Andres is the only organization I support. anything associated with trump family is suspect.
There are several legit groups helping Ukraine, in one or another location.
Princess Photo-Op is the kind of person who shows up at a soup kitchen mid-service, puts on an apron, has her picture taken handing a meal tray to a person in the queue, then bails to hit the spa.
Think Paul Ryan washing dishes at a soup kitchen when he was running for president.
Ryan washing *clean* dishes – and the soup kitchen didn’t want him there.
Yikes! Is that her? No makeup? No fake stuff on her face? No 500. hairdo? No pearls? No diamonds in the ears? No 5000. gown? Call me cynical, but given how she always presents as glamorous & rich, could it be she went plain Jane so not to appear as a rich bitch doling out gruel to the peasants? Something is rotten in Denmark that looks like someone consulted a PR firm to alter her image. Just seems awfully suspicious.
