Ivanka only one in Munich audience not applauding Merkel saying German cars no security threat to US

Tweet from Aaron Rupar, with video:






Ivanka Trump is the only person in audience who doesn’t applaud after Angela Merkel points out the absurdity of Trump claiming German cars are a national security threat





Found that thanks to a tweet from Trump biographer and Bloomberg columnist Tim O'Brien, who had this comment on Ivanka being there at all:






Why is Ivanka Trump -- who has absolutely no background or experience in international affairs and national security matters -- officially representing the United States at the Munich Security Conference to begin with?

I saw a photo of them all dressed up out to dinner. I'm tired of them traveling the world on our money.

that she thinks she even belongs there.

Go back to infringing on other people's trademarks, princess. At least you'll be doing something you're good at.

It just pisses me off that he sends his brainless kids and the useless Jared Kushner to represent our nation in these affairs. It's infuriating!

If indeed she thinks at all. She probably couldn't keep up with the translation or maybe they had some boy band music piped in to keep her from feeling dumber than she really is.

She teases her hair to keep things from flying over her head as it is.

Besides, I doubt she's applauded for few people other than herself and her dad anyway. I certainly wouldn't hold out for anything beyond that.

Maybe dad can get her an applause tutor, for next time.
