Daddy urges "BUY AMERICA" - Daughter buys 53 TONS of Chinese stuff



Ivanka Trump Imported 53 Tons of Chinese Goods During Her Dad’s ‘Buy American’ Speech

A French news agency got the customs receipts.

"... even as President Donald Trump promised to create jobs by following “two simple rules: Buy American and hire American” in his January inauguration speech, huge shipments of his daughter’s line were reportedly on the way to the U.S. from China?


More than 53.5 tons of Ivanka Trump-branded shoes, bags, and clothes were sailing to American ports in eight shipments “even as he spoke,” according to customs receipts obtained by French news organization Agence France-Presse"

If there are 53 tons of the stuff, none of it is very special or rare. That' a lot of crappy crap. Why bother to waste money on it?
