Ep. 78, Take Your Daughter To Work Day: Ivanka Urges Unemployed To 'Find Something New'

By Susie Madrak — July 14, 2020

Ivanka Trump is holding a press conference today to talk about her latest hobby. No, not scrap booking -- It's a campaign to urge 50 million displaced and unemployed workers to "Find Something New." You know, because finding a new job is a lot like hunting down the latest hot restaurant before those bastards at the Times ruin it with their five-star reviews!

More than ever our #PledgetoAmericasWorkers is focused on helping Americans 🇺🇸 bolster skills to find new jobs + navigate career transitions.

Today we are launching the #FindSomethingNew ad campaign!https://t.co/gS1JL50lcU

I think she has a point, a lot of people who are out of work because of her father's terrible response to a pandemic haven't even considered a job as a Senior Advisor to the President, they need to pull themselves up by their bootstraps.

Oh my goodness. Extremely tone deaf.

Are you one if the 5 million+ people who lost health care when you lost your job? Find something new! Laid off in the pandemic? Find something new! Furloughed? Find something new! https://t.co/RabWFOmzmX

“Find something new” is Javankanese for “Let them eat cake.”
