They're so "in touch", those Obamas....they're going to spend about $22K a month to rent a house:

Peek inside Obama's new house - CNNPolitics.com

Do tell: Should a friend of mine, who is the director of a local city charity (it's his liberal-side job, and he happens to get paid a decent salary for doing so, in the $40K range. All public info. ) NOT keep his children in an independent private school, that costs right around $35K per kid because those who eat/reside/"learn" at the charity can't afford to do the same?

He's all about the homeless and the "lower class".

But he and his wife send their kids to an expensive private school, right alongside my kids.

Kinda like how Obama does.

Bracelets vs. personal fashion designers/stylists, $22K/month in rent, expensive private schools for the kids, Michelle's EU vacation/kid birthday party (with friends)... on the tax payers & to the tune of millions and millions.

And those are only facts.

But Ivanka is a grifter and her father hates the middle class.

Get real.

I agree

Here they are, saviors of the working class.

There has always been evidence that the Trump family views the presidency as an opportunity to expand their personal brand and wealth, and the hits keep coming. On Sunday, during the family’s first interview following the election, Ivanka Trump wore a bracelet from her own jewelry line that sells for more than $10,000. Apparently hoping for more of the free publicity that was lavished on them during the campaign, one of the first daughter’s employees sent a press release around to style reporters and other fashion media with a link to an ad-style photo of Ivanka wearing the bracelet.

Yes he did. And many of us around that that time laughed about, so many jokes about Billy Beer. Many others, not fans of Carter, had little temper fits about it. Many who were so "offended" with Billy's product are just fine and dandy with Ivanka's product. There are lots of us who can recognize obvious hypocrisy on both sides.

People might like to know that Billy Beer wasn't actually produced by Billy Carter. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Billy_Beer

It was a product of other breweries. He only promoted it for them.

Anyone going to bang on Chelsea Clinton for insider trading and using mommy's and daddy's connections to get tips on stocks? Or, are we just going to call out Ivanka for doing nothing illegal?

And one can only imagine how Hillary planned to use her presidency to enhance the pay for play schemes meant to enrich their Clinton Foundation.

It wouldn't have mattered if they all wore jewelry made from bubble gum wrappers and frocks from Wal-Mart. You'd still be complaining.

Immediately following the airing of 60 Minutes, Ivanka Org issued a " Style Alert" press release to the media hawking the not made in the US, $10,800 bracelet she wore on the show. Backlash was immediate.

Ivanka appologised and announced the company will be reviewing procedures.

The end.

Let me see if I get you right.

Ivanka has a jewelry business which sells high price pieces.

She wears one of those pieces.

And you have problem with that.

So, if one of the family owned a Mercedes dealership, you would expect him to ride in public in a Mini-Cooper because it "offends" you.

I am beginning to think the dem part is FILLED with juvenile little kids.

And some wonder why we can't have "reasonable'" adult discussion with some liberals.

They are so ridiculous they are best ignored.
