“She has taken advantage of everything that her family name and her wealth offered,” Trump biographer Michael D’Antonio added during an appearance on CNN.
First daughter Ivanka Trump has been positioned to lie about her father President Donald Trump’s racist and bigoted leanings “her whole life,” a Trump biographer said in light of a new book alleging that she defended his Charlottesville rally comments and insisted he is not racist.
CNN host Brooke Baldwin asked D’Antonio to comment on how often Ivanka Trump has defended her father like that. “She’s almost trapped in this dynamic—either she acknowledges that her father has racist leanings and says racist and bigoted things,” D’Antonio continued, “Or she has to lie about it and joins sort of this family practice of denying the truth, manipulating the facts and distorting when things are uncomfortable.”
“This all comes from being raised in a family where the jet or the big name on the side of it was an identifier, a part of their status and it really was expected that you got this privileged treatment and now this is abuse of the government and abuse of the taxpayer dollars to insist that this be something you get from the United States Air Force,” D’Antonio said. “It’s really shocking.”
