Trump claimed Ivanka had created 15 million jobs – the only 5 stunning takedowns you need
It’s no secret that Donald Trump has a special place in his heart for Ivanka, the daughter he claimed he’d be dating if he weren’t her father.
In a recent speech at the White House, he tried to get everybody else to think a bit more of her by making an outrageous claim on her behalf.
Here’s Trump claiming today that Ivanka has “created over 15 million jobs” — or more than twice the number of total jobs created in the entire country since he took office pic.twitter.com/kApQ7dIWcS

Political journalist, Jackie Calmes elaborated.
There have been a total of 6.7 million jobs created since Trump took office. Where did Ivanka create her 15 million?
P.S. In the same period — Obama's last 35 months — nearly 8 million jobs were created, per Bureau of Labor Statistics. That's 1.3m more. https://t.co/rbmg6yiBpl

Ivanka’s fashion business has been at the centre of a number of controversies, including having stolen designs from another designer, outsourcing work to China after claiming it was an all-American operation, and even accusations of using underage labour abroad.
If she created any jobs, the major part of them won’t have been in the US.
While the MAGA faithful fell for it hook, line and sinker, these people weren’t so easily taken in.

Dr. Jack Brown had a terrifying suggestion.
Is this an example of Donald Trump propaganda prepping for an announcement that Pence is out of the 2020 race – and Ivanka will be his new running mate? https://t.co/nXfrCTSja3

Oh, God! He’s going to make it hereditary, isn’t he!
