Ivanka Trump "scolded" Kellyanne Conway for "dragging her brand into an ethics mess"

Ivanka Trump ‘scolded’ Kellyanne Conway for ‘dragging her brand into an ethics mess’: report

President Donald Trump’s daughter, Ivanka, has reportedly “scolded” his top adviser for promoting her clothing line from the White House.

Although President Trump was said to have praised Kellyanne Conway after she appeared on Fox News and encouraged people to buy Ivanka’s products, the first daughter did not approve of the government-sponsored promotion, according to Politico.

“In her attempt to do Trump’s bidding, she may have crossed one of the people closer to Trump than herself — Ivanka Trump,” Politico’s Tara Palmeri reported on Sunday. “A source close to Trump said that his daughter scolded Conway for dragging her brand into an ethics mess and told her not to mention it again on TV.”

“This was a continuation of a conversation that Ivanka Trump had with her father weeks earlier about leaving her business out of the politics, that Conway wasn’t aware of,” the report added.

I enjoy it too, as small and short a satisfying moment as it is.
I keep hoping for something much bigger, like the tremendous relief we would get to feel once the lid is removed off of the Pandora's box of lies, deliberate election fraud, Russian hacking and kompromat, backroom deals, and outright treason in such a way that they would all be forced to resign as prosecutions mount.
We need to rid ourselves of this human rot and pick up the pieces and begin rebuilding.

In the ethical arena, unethical behavior will ultimately stand out as such. Conway managed to shine a spotlight on this, but the mess in question was already there, courtesy of 45 having intervened a day earlier.
