Ivanka Trump Slam’s Biden’s Sexist Comment: Shouldn’t Dr. Birx “Be Able To Speak?”
On Tuesday, Presidential daughter and White House adviser Ivanka Trump slammed presumptive Democratic front-runner Joe Biden after his sexist comments, claiming that CDC Director, Dr. Anthony Fauci, should be the “only person” who should speak in behalf of the Trump administration.
During an interview for Milwaukee’s TMJ4, Biden lamented that “We’d all be better off if the only person we heard from the White House was Dr. Fauci.”
Creepy Joe’s comment did not sit well for Ivanka, who, like the rest of the coronavirus task force team, holds key positions in the administration. In her Twitter post, Ivanka wrote: “Dr. Birx is an Army Colonel and a subject matter expert who has dedicated her life to fighting infectious diseases.” The presidential daughter added, “Why shouldn’t she be able to speak?”

Why shouldn’t she also be able to speak?
“Joe Biden: Dr. Anthony Fauci should be 'only person' public hears from during COVID-19 crisis”https://t.co/K8AsHJLtdA
Based on the doctor’s profile, Birx had worked under the federal government during the Obama administration. This includes serving as the Director of CDC’s Division of Global HIV/AIDS (DGHA). She had also led CDC’s PEPFAR programs and held a whopping $1.5 billion in an annual budget. She is also an experienced leader, leading 400 staff and 1,500 field staff across 45 countries.
News about Biden’s sexist comments came as no surprise. Just like Dr. Birx, left-wing media such as the New York Times, and The Washington Post tried to silence women who went against the former vice president. In fact, media outlets tried to discredit Tara Reade, a former Biden staffer. Reade, along with six other women, came out with allegations of sexual harassment against the Democratic nominee.
Some social media users agree with Ivanka’s statement. One commented that Biden would rather “fondle” women than to listen to what they have to say.
Joe Biden would rather fondle and sniff women than listen to them. He is a sexist dinosaur with a conveniently faulty memory. This will come in quite handy soon enough. pic.twitter.com/kBqc4LQaAy

Another remarked that based on the party’s history, Democrats do not respect women.
The left don’t respect women. That’s why. See: women’s voting rights.

While someone suggested that Biden does not even know what he was saying.
Don't worry, Joe Biden doesn't even know what he says.

Another added that Biden is simply “senile.”

However, not everyone was happy with Ivanka’s statements. One made fun of the presidential daughter, and attached a picture of Ivanka advertising “body bags.”

Others tried to tie Ivanka with the president’s alleged failure.

While some tried to undermine her potential.
I knew @IvankaTrump Nepotism Barbie Attention Addict couldn't stay quiet much longer. Are you still in Bedminster, NJ. @IvankaTrump violated guildelines for NJ, Washington, SC and CDC guidelines to shelter in place. No one should listen to a person that has no respect for guides.

Ivanka also received a massive backlash after she tried to give helpful advice to Americans who are in quarantine. On Saturday, Ivanka suggested that people could try making shadow puppets from Henry Bursill’s 1860’s book. Some of Ivanka’s suggestions include making shapes of a greyhound, a goose, a goat, and a camel.
However, left-wing supporters mocked Ivanka by sharing a shadow puppet they called a “unicorn” or the so-called “middle finger.”
