Samantha Bee Slams Ivanka Trump, Uses Profane Statement That Sparks Controversy

Samantha Bee is under fire for a statement she made about Ivanka Trump.

“Ivanka Trump, who works at the White House, chose to post the second-most oblivious tweet we’ve seen this week,” Samantha said, referencing both Roseanne Barr‘s racist tweet, as well as Ivanka‘s tweet spending time with one of her kids amid her immigration policy controversies. “You know, Ivanka, that’s a beautiful photo of you and your child, but let me just say, one mother to another: Do something about your dad’s immigration practices, you feckless c*nt! He listens to you! Put on something tight and low-cut and tell your father to f*ckin’ stop it.”

Some public figures, like Megyn Kelly, were opposed.

“This is disgusting. How is this acceptable? And how are we expected to take any of these publications seriously if they gleefully repost something like this at the same time they (rightfully) condemn @therealroseanne? You know the saying Love is Love? Well Hate is Hate,” Megyn posted.

Kathy Griffin, however, defended Samantha, writing, “Yes we can talk about it..but first let’s talk about this: 1. Ivanka is 36. Malia was 10 when she entered the White House, 2. Ivanka is a senior administration official.., 3. @iamsambee is a comic.”
