WASHINGTON

Ivanka Trump is adding a stop in Colombia to a previously announced trip to South America in September to focus on the economic empowerment of women in developing countries.

The White House said last week that President Donald Trump's daughter and senior adviser plans to visit Paraguay and Argentina to promote the Women's Global Development and Prosperity Initiative.

. . .

The women's global development program was launched in February and focuses on providing job training and financial assistance and encouraging legal and regulatory changes to help women in developing countries prosper financially.

In April, Ivanka Trump traveled to Ethiopia and Ivory Coast in Africa to promote her initiative.

TRUMP BRAND AMBASSADOR.......Chief Immature Chick Grifter

Anything she wants, she gets daddy to give her......do you ever wonder how she wields so much ultimate power over "Daddy"

She is, at best, an emotionally stunted little girl......still acting out every little girls wish to be a princess...........

She is Jared's just reward for him being such scum of the earth

she was granted $100 MILLION to do this "job". Maybe she will pick up a few trademarks for herself while she is at it. I wonder where that money goes, since her travels will all be paid for by taxpayers. I hope somebody with TASTE will advise her on how to dress. The granny nighties she wore to meet the REAL women with power just will not do. Maybe Beavis and Butthead will go along on the free trip, do some hunting while she promotes herself. What a family, always looking out for themselves at taxpayer expense. Who will do her WH "job" while she is gone?

The big clue is in the cover story for the trip..since when does any of his spawn do something to help anyone but themselves.

budget to help women in business. Surely someone else would have been able to perform whatever duties she is doing? This is just a scam to rip off taxpayers for the tRump coffers. Why should they stop, since nobody is even trying to stop their scams?

This is evidence that America...and possibly the entire fucking world has not only crashed through the Looking Glass, but we are now using the broken shards to slit our fucking wrists.

Every fiber of my being, from the deepest depths of my soul, to the tips of my male nipples in the frozen-food section at Harris Teater, knows with a crystalline, pure spar certainty, that I should NOT BE REQUIRED to give ONE-FUCK what this soulless, hell spawn "Netherworld Barbie" has to say about fucking anything!

My intellect, my psyche, my conscience, my decency and grace...all tell me that I shouldn't even be required to know who in the fuck these people are.

I know that these lifeless, grifting, vapid, empty vessels deserve NOT ONE NANO-SECOND of my serious thoughts.

These spray-on-tan, Loreal of Paris, plastic, Axe-Body Spray wearing morons SHOULD BE THE MOST FUCKING INSIGNIFICANT PEOPLE WE EVER ENCOUNTER

Their impact on our lives should have the same effect of a fucking gnat blocking the path of a charging rhino.

I will NEVER forgive fucking Donnie Shit for Brains voting morons for requiring me to take seriously A FUCKING BUNCH OF IGNORANT FUCKSTICKS that should NEVER be taken seriously

This fucking family and their supporters, are like dog-shit stuck in the grooves of your tennis shoes.

I am so sick of how she is attempting to brand her little Chapin school ass onto the achievements of real feminists. She represents no woman on earth but her own reflection in the mirror. She is as vulgar as her father.

She's repulsive in every way. FAKE PLASTIC hedgehog.
