WASHINGTON (AP) — Ivanka Trump’s rabbi is condemning President Donald Trump’s response to a deadly white nationalist rally in Charlottesville, Virginia.
Rabbi Haskel Lookstein told his New York synagogue that he is “deeply troubled by the moral equivalency and equivocation” of Trump’s reaction.
Trump has blamed “both sides” in last week’s march that also drew neo-Nazis and Ku Klux Klan members. A car plowed into a group of counterprotesters, killing a woman and injuring 19 others.
Lookstein is rabbi emeritus of Congregation Kehilath Jeshurun. He oversaw Ivanka Trump’s conversion to Judaism. She and her husband, Jared Kushner, were longtime members of the synagogue. Lookstein only rarely comments on the Trumps.
Lookstein’s message was posted Wednesday night on the Facebook page of the modern Orthodox synagogue and was signed by the congregation’s other rabbis.
And the response from Jarvanka?
Zippo, nada, none…
maybe she needs a reminder …
ETA: or it could be she needs to learn
She’s considering whether of not responding would hurt her brand. After all white hoods could be all the rage for autumn!
She’s staring out with MAGA hats first.

BTW, I’m I the only one that finds Ivanka’s neck freakishly long? She looks like a human giraffe. As a child were rings placed around her neck like the Kayan people do?
