They say the road to hell is paved with good intentions. But in Ivanka Trump‘s case, that road is paved with grifts, oatmeal, and self-congratulatory videos posted to social media.
Last week, the former first daughter announced plans to donate 1 million meals (meals, not dollars) to starving Ukrainian families.

On Sunday, she posted a video on Instagram crowing about her generosity, saying she and her partner organizations had made good on that promise, before addressing the people living in the war-torn country directly.
How about we take this to the next level?
Our newsletter is like a refreshing cocktail (or mocktail) of LGBTQ+ entertainment and pop culture, served up with a side of eye-candy.
“You are in our thoughts and our prayers, and our heart breaks for what you are experiencing in this dire time,” Ivanka said. “You have inspired the world with your courage and bravery as you fight for your country and your freedoms.”
“God bless you.”

In the video, Ivanka didn’t mention anything about how, as president, her father often parroted Kremlin talking points, excused and sometimes even embraced Russian aggression, and fawned over Vladimir Putin.
She also didn’t mention how her dad was impeached (the first time) for threatening to withhold military aid to Ukraine if it didn’t supply him dirt on Joe Biden prior to the 2020 presidential election.
Ivanka followed up the video with another post sharing photos of recipients of the meals, along with the caption, “Our meals, sent with love and prayers, arriving in Kyiv.”

While it’s nice of Ivanka to want to help, most people would agree that boasting about her own altruism on Instagram during a humanitarian crisis caused by one of her father’s favorite murderous dictators is in pretty poor taste.

Furthermore, the International Business Times reports Ivanka donated “hundreds of thousands of dollars” of the reported $640 million she made while working in the White House to the effort and that most of the food was packages of “oatmeal and goulash.”
Here’s what people on Twitter are saying about Ivanka’s message to Ukraine…
My takeaway from Ivanka Trump’s video on donating meals to Ukraine.
“Look at me guys! I’m a real humanitarian that cares for other humans! This video will help the public‘s perception of me!”
People that are truly charitable don’t need to advertise it in a video.

Ivanka Trump reappeared on social media to make a softcore porn video thanking herself for sending one million meals to Ukraine. pic.twitter.com/ilolPMvTi2

Ivanka trump said nothing when her daddy/husband bragged about sexual assault.
He let Covid ravage the country.
He extorted Ukraine.
He plotted a coup.
He incited a deadly insurrection.
And. She. Said. Nothing.
So I don’t give a flying fuck about anything she has to say now.— Jo ? (@JoJoFromJerz) March 28, 2022
that’s all I’ve got to say to @IvankaTrump on that pic.twitter.com/deHVgByhoO

No, Ivanka did not send a million meals to Ukrainian refugees. Trumps don’t do anything that doesn’t benefit them. Next

Ukraine, I have 1 million meals but I need you to do us a favour though!

Is Ivanka trying to start a reputation rehabilitation tour?
Is she expecting praise for what she claims she's done for the Ukrainian people?
These Trumps just think they're so special.
This crime family should be in prison.

Up next on @CBSNews – new contributor and former Trump campaign chairman Paul Manafort discusses the war in Ukraine.
And then, new contributor Ivanka Trump will discuss nepotism in government.
— Bradley P. Moss (@BradMossEsq) March 29, 2022
I wonder if Trump hadn’t tried extort money from Ukraine and handed them to Russia, if this war would even be going on.

Shout out to Ivanka Trump for donating a sliver of her fraudulently gained American funds, to the children of Ukraine. What a gal, great PR job, well done ? #Ivankaslapher #TrumpCrimeFamily pic.twitter.com/Bf96gGPf10

Typical Trump.
She didn’t actually DO anything, but announced her “INTENTIONS” to possibly do something, and got a bunch of media attention.
Just like when Donald claimed they were going to donate money to a Veterans charity and months later it was exposed that they didn’t.
This is typical Ivanka, every few months her P.R, team tries to come up with some other way to rehab her image, none have worked so far and this is just another in a long line.
I don’t think she has any intention of donating those meals.
MarcyMayer
I guess you and I have one agreement: I can’t stand Ivanka and Jared Kushner either; they are spoiled and entitled rich kids who never should have had positions of power in the Trump Administration.
barryaksarben
SO Marcy you think his kids are awful but you love him? How deplorable. Having a woman’s first name DOES NOT MAKE YOU TRANS
GaysForTrump
Oh spare us your political rhetoric for someone that is choosing to help the Ukrainian people.
Here’s a quote from Obama PRAISING Putin. So what’s your take on this…
“I am aware of not only the extraordinary work that you’ve done on behalf of the Russian people in your previous role as prime minis-, uh, as president, but in your current role as prime minister,” Obama said of Putin.
“We think there’s an excellent opportunity to put U.S.-Russian relations on a much stronger footing,” he went on to say.
Dog Ivanka all you want about donating food to the people of Ukraine. Smear her good deed all you want.
While Hunter’s walls are closing in on him with his ties to Ukrainian company, Burisma.
MarcyMayer
Now that the New York Times has authenticated The Crack Addict’s (Hunter Biden) laptops and emails, he will be investigated along with his dad, The Dementia Patient currently occupying the Oval Office, by the Republican-controlled House and Senate next January, and Biden will be impeached for receiving 10% of Hunter’s ill-gotten gains. Hunter and Sleepy Joe may even end up in prison.
Red Tsunami coming in November: even the NBC Poll proves that Biden and the Democrats are sinking faster than the Titanic.
Cam
Translation: The right wing troll account desperately brought multiple screenames on here to deflect from Ivanka’s phony P.R. Stunt.
But if you want to talk about other things, sure, the Trump kids stealing from a kids cancer charity is one.
paul dorian lord fredine
oh, please.
Polaro
Marcy, girl, get a hobby you’re actually good at. This is just sad, off-topic nonsense. I know you are adverse to facts, but you do know there is an active investigation into Hunter Biden, right? We’ll see what comes of it. As far as dementia goes, Trump is first in line for that mantle. Biden may be old, but any reasonable person can tell Biden does not have any signs of dementia. Trump…there is so much evidence of mental issues…so, so many. Tragic you are just so vile.
Red tsunami? You peaked too soon. While I thought we were in trouble, I’m now thinking you nuts have just gone to far… Even the lazy electorate take notice from time to time.
MarcyMayer
I’m a libertarian and I vote Republican most of the time, but I can’t stand either Ivanka or Jared Kushner: Two very spoiled and entitled rich kids.
CNY1983
jesus christ almighty just take your fox talking points and find a republican orgy thats handing out cocaine will ya?
barryaksarben
yes, you think they are terrible BUT HUNTER, Hillary’s emails and the rest of your trump loving insanity. HAVING A GIRLS FIRST NAME DOES NOT MAKE YOU TRANS SO QUIT SAYING YOU ARE — WE KNOW BETTER. You were outed as a straight man months and months ago. Just stop you sick pos. And being liberal DOES NOT MEAN WE HAVE TO BE NICE TO HUMAN GARBAGE LIKE YOU
white-queer-african
@MM, by now you know my drift.
Suddenly you vote Republican “most of the time”? A liar get so entangled in their lies that they forget all the BS they spew.
Just go away troll.
MarcyMayer
Ever notice that you make grammatical errors when you write???
Obviously: You’re not well-educated.
barryaksarben
Marcy if you are so damned educated how do you get caught in all your lies? The very fact that you keep insisting you are a trans woman is bullshit as we both know . you were outed long ago as a straight white cis man who is a trump deplorables
white-queer-african
Dearie @M*ntalMarcy, so I am under your skin? Lol. Lol Lol.
Slipping in the odd grammatical error to get you going. Lol. Lol. Lol.
Thank you professor for correcting me. Lol. Lol. Lol.
What a pathetic sad live you have! Wink. Wink. Wink.

The Trumps rarely actually make the donations they say they will. The ones they do make are usually with other people’s money. The best thing the Trumps could have done was not blocking the arms transfers to Ukraine when Donny was playing at being president.
MarcyMayer
Polaro:
I thought that you were honest. I guess not!
Don’t forget:
Joe Biden had a Ukrainian prosecutor fired, and Biden threatened to cut off aid to the Ukraine, if they continued investigating his son, The Crack Addict. He was even demented enough to say that during a video-taped interview

Marcy, Marcy, Marcy when you can get your facts right then speak otherwise STFU. You’re like any other Republican-a habitual liar.

All these trolls screaming about Hunter Biden.
Is anyone else getting Hillary flashbacks?
“Hillary Clinton is being investigated and it won’t be long until she’s behind bars!”
Yeah…that never happened so now they’ve switched up to Hunter.
Maybe these trolls could tell us WHY Hillary isn’t in jail. The Republicans HATE Hillary. How could they have had so much evidence and she’s still free as a bird?
We’re they too lazy?
Did they have a ton of evidence, but just decided to give her a free pass for…what…shits n giggles?
Please…PLEASE tell us because we’re dying to know what made you completely give up on your favourite target, Hillary Clinton, and start placing your bets on Hunter Biden.
We’re dying to know.
MarcyMayer
“Maybe these trolls could tell us WHY Hillary isn’t in jail. The Republicans HATE Hillary. How could they have had so much evidence and she’s still free as a bird?”
You could say the same thing about Donald Trump.
barryaksarben
BUT Marcy dear we do have proof against Trump as even judges say he committed felonies. Hillary testified for 11 straight hours when will trump do that? LOL as if, Joe Biden urged the IUkrainians to fire the prosecutor because HE WOULDNT GO AFTER CORRUPTION
jt1990
Hmmm Ivanka must be angry at her husband/sugardaddy. Donating an entire day’s worth of meals to some $hithole country…
Jim
Per capita those with less money/income donate more of what they have than those with a lot of money.
I’m glad the rich donate millions of dollars but remember it is chump change for them.
