How much would you have paid for an hour with Ivanka?

[RandySF]

An auction offering the highest bidder “30-45 minutes” of time to meet with Ivanka Trump was cancelled Friday after it came under scrutiny.

According to a report by the New York Times, the fundraiser was cancelled after questions were raised by ethics experts about the special access to the incoming first family it appeared to offer bidders.

Earlier Friday, the Times reported that many of those who had placed bids on the auction wanted access to Ivanka Trump in order to communicate with her father's incoming administration. The charity fundraising page was taken down without explanation later the same day.

The fundraiser said the money raised would go to the Eric Trump Foundation to benefit St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital. According to the Times' report, bidding reached $77,888 before the page was removed.

1. this much....

cold cash.

[SamKnause]

2. Not 1 cent.

I have no desire to meet or talk with any one in the Trump family.

I would not answer the front door for the majority of politicians.

[Calculating]

3. An hour in bed?

XD

[BigDemVoter]

27. You are bad.

I was wondering the same thing!

[TexasProgresive]

4. In a 4 Star hotel room-Nah, not my type.

[SMC22307]

5. Bupkis. (n/t)

[MineralMan]

6. How much would she pay me to spend an hour with her?

That's a better question.

[treestar]

7. She would have to pay me

a million dollars.

[rug]

8. Less than Donald would.

[La Lioness Priyanka]

26. Lol

[Girard442]

9. One wonders if would be doable to convince her...

...to steer her father's presidency away from the cliffs.

Not likely. She's probably too much of a pod person.

[MineralMan]

10. Ivanka is a friend of mine...

She will meet {or insert word of choice} me any time.
For a nickel or a dime.
Fifteen cents for overtime.

Back to middle school again...

[roamer65]

11. I'd give her my 2 cents.

[Hekate]

20. Thread winner. Clean and to the point -- I'd LOVE to give her my 2 cents' worth myself!

[JudyM]

12. It's just stunning that that family has no sense of what's ethical. Scary because tRump will be

eviscerating any watchdog groups to the best of his ability.

[3catwoman3]

13. One could not pay me...

...to go.

[2naSalit]

14. She'd have to cough up

$1,000,000/minute for the first ten minutes and $5,000,000 for every minute thereafter, and she wouldn't be allowed to speak during that time.

[HAB911]

15. she would have to pay me...........n/t

[NightWatcher]

16. Jumped past pay to play and landed on pimping out your sister.

Anything for a buck

[benld74]

17. She couldn't pay ME enough

[Auntie Bush]

18. I'd only need a few minutes to tell her what a crooked, stingy asshole her father was.

[sarcasmo]

19. Pimping out your family for cash, greed is a disease.

[Momgonepostal]

21. How is this not prostitution? nt

[smirkymonkey]

24. It is.

Ivanka is just a very expensive ......

[Hortensis]

22. If I were officer of a hopeful corporation seeking contracts,

perhaps more than $78K, but I certainly would NOT be offering quid for access that'd be in every newspaper in the nation. And, like all the rest, I'd be lining up when the time was appropriate.

Loved Eric, btw, claiming the only losers in canceling this were the poor, sick children. Something you could fix in seconds by just whipping out the ol' checkbook, Eric.

[KamaAina]

23. Minimum wage.

[Txbluedog]

25. A $1 but only if...

They threw in Melania and Lara for free

[guillaumeb]

28. What a potentially deceptive question. eom

[sarisataka]

29. I'll pay for my lunch

if she agrees to honestly answer how much it creeps her out having her father openly and publicly fantasize about her.

[mnhtnbb]

30. You are assuming she's creeped out...

and that's not necessarily a correct assumption. She could be just as sick as he is.

[sarisataka]

31. Benefit of the doubt

and all that. I realize I may leave the table with the food untouched...

[mnhtnbb]

32. be sure to leave her with the tab!

[Tanuki]

34. Idiot brother Eric had the nerve to sniff that the children of St. Jude's

Hospital would be the ones suffering because the "auction" was cancelled. The truth is that his so-called "charity" is just as flagrant and fraudulent in funneling money to his family's businesses as his scumbag dad's. For example, $880 thousand collected in the name of Idiot Eric's "charity" went to Trump golf properties:

[JI7]

38. And since these fuckers claim to be billionaires why don't they just

Contribute what should be a small amount....

[ffr]

35. Who? n/t

[azmom]

36. $250,000

[TeamPooka]

37. "We know what you are, now we're just negotiating price."
