The bunker image of Trump and Ivanka convinced me. |
He does have poor impulse control, zero filter, and is a low-morals, narcissistic chauvinist, but I don’t think he has SA his daughter. |
Why? My dad did and he was outwardly a more decent seeming man than Trump. It’s not like molesters all have mustaches and drive white vans. |
No. 45 even had a good relationship with Ivanka’s mother. As an ex myself, I love that … Did you see recent Ivanka press statement? What she chose to say now? She said mom was watching over him when the bullets whizzed by. She believes that. She wrote that during a very emotional and raw time. As a spiritual person, that statement tells me a lot about the three of them. I don’t want to like him but he is an interesting figure… with oddly strong relationships. |
It’s so depraved that I think most people want to think it doesn’t happen. I’m so sorry that it happened to you. |
He does have oddly strong relationships. Maybe he chose women who he could sort of groom and control? |
I'm sorry that happened to you. |
PP here. I am so sorry for what you experienced. You're right. It's possible. Certainly Trump has always shown an unhealthy interested in Ivanka's physical appearance (see quotes earlier in this thread of things he has said about her body) and there are tons of photos of him touching her in public. The reality is none of us will ever know. I think it's unlikely, however, because Ivanka was 9 when her parents divorced and she no longer lived with him. Also, the Trumps had two nannies looking after the kids. I think what is more likely is that he sees her as an extension of himself--a very attractive one--and, being a narcissist, admiring her is a way of admiring himself. In any event, no one knows what the truth is except for Ivanka. |
I appreciate the kind words from PPs. My life is good now and I don’t often think of my father, although Trump does trigger me. Access is access, even if it’s limited. My parents got divorced when I was 11, and I didn’t spent much time with my dad. But he abused me from 7 until 14. It only takes a few seconds to grope someone (which Trump has bragged about doing). It once happened as we watched my mom’s car pulling into the driveway to pick me up. Perverted men on a power trip take pleasure in that sort of thing. |
Also, my dad absolutely saw me as an extension of himself. That’s why he felt entitled to do whatever he wanted with me. I was his favorite child. The smart one he was proud of. |

You don’t find it icky and inappropriate that he said if she weren’t his daughter he’d be dating her? That’s on tape so no gaslighting that it didn’t happen. |
I can’t imagine admiring a father who tells a shock jock it’s fine to refer to his daughter as a piece of @ss. And then laughed with him about it. That is crossing a line that he will ever be able to recover from in my eyes. Terrible terrible thing to do. |
| If you were a follower of the Trump women fashion thread you would know that there is a clip of Ivanka with a haunted, miserable look in her eyes talking about her childhood bedroom that suggests… something terrible has happened to her. |
I think people like that other PP who insist that our eyes and ears are lying are in denial. This was on stage in 2016. The clip is even grosser.
