Trump White House Hypocrisy Is On Full Display In New #ByeIvanka Attack Ad
The hashtag #ByeIvanka trended nationwide on Twitter late Friday following the release of a new video highlighting the hypocrisy of President Donald Trump and his administration.
MeidasTouch, a progressive PAC, took White House adviser Ivanka Trump’s widely derided announcement from Friday on the federal government prioritizing job applicants’ skills over college degrees, and spliced it with previous comments her father has made about nepotism and appointing rich people.
The 60-second clip also notes how President Trump has recruited members of his own family for senior government roles, despite them having little experience.

This video, the latest from the recently formed political action committee ― made up of lawyer Ben Meiselas, who represented former NFL player Colin Kaepernick, and his two brothers ― has garnered more than 1.2 million views on Twitter.
Other ads released by the PAC this month have taken swipes at Trump’s botched response to the coronavirus pandemic and his violent rhetoric about anti-racism protesters.
