First Daughter Ivanka Trump Praises Military on Independence Day — Gets an Earful From Twitter
Over the holiday weekend, both President Donald Trump and Vice President Mike Pence celebrated Independence Day by paying tribute to the men and women of our armed forces.
Trump spoke at an event celebrating veterans on Saturday evening to kick off the weekend, and Pence spent the day on Tuesday marching in a parade in Grand Rapids, Michigan.
Several family members offered similar sentiments as well. First Lady Melania Trumpoffered a sincere message via Twitter, calling America “the land of the free because of the brave” — and critics immediately attacked her.
First Daughter Ivanka tweeted a similar message:
Happy Independence Day! Grateful to those who fight for our freedoms and protect this great nation. #LetFreedomRing #FourthofJuly2017 #July4

And unfortunately, her tweet yielded similar results:
Thank you, I’m certainly doing what I can to protect this great nation from your father. . . Oh, that’s not what you meant. Is it?

This from a #PradaPrincess who comes from a family whose daddy dodged the draft and is taking Healthcare from Veterans. Suck it, kid.

Buried between the criticisms were a few positive comments, however:
