Ivanka Trump mocked over fan mail
A little fan mail love has turned to hate for Ivanka Trump.
The daughter of US President Donald Trump took to Twitter on Friday to share a cute photo of some hand written letters from children.
Overjoyed by these beautiful letters. Reading them is one of the highlights of my week. 😍 pic.twitter.com/AF5tSMHnB6

Many of them appear to be covered in love hearts and the words “thank you”, and she writes that “Reading them is one of the highlights of my week.”
But as with anything shared by a Trump, it quickly attracted a fair bit of antagonism online, with people mocking both the first daughter and her famous dad. Check out some of the best ones here:
Wow! How does @realDonaldTrump find the time to write so many letters!?

What do you actually do?

I wish your dad would spend more time studying policy and less time writing you all these letters.

Whatever staffer made these fake letters to Ivanka Trump, I loved this little touch - was it a commentary on being blinded by greed? pic.twitter.com/qFtUUAGeWo

Are these from your Chinese sweatshop employees?

It comes after Ivanka and her step mum Melania were targeted in a recent Newsweek article for their choice of footwear.
It was noted that the pair almost exclusively wear high heels - the staple shoe of beauty pageants like the one the President used to run – which are neither practical, comfortable, or something that the majority of average women are able to wear all day long.
Instead, it’s a fashion item that is designed to draw the male gaze, despite being wildly uncomfortable (and potentially damaging) for the wearer.
Regardless, it triggered plenty of people to take to social media to say how much they disagree with the criticism levelled at the Trump women.
One said, "The Trump women can't wear SHOES without them being used as a political weapons against them," while another wrote, "How dare Newsweek. Some of us love our heels we wear them because we love how they look. Whats the problem?"
Like them or not, it doesn’t seem the Trump women can put a foot right!
