Donald Trump's daughter Ivanka received a barrage of criticism and ridicule online after she tried to avoid testifying in court under the guise of babysitting. The English-language tabloid Newsweek writes about this.
The publication notes that Donald Trump's children were called to testify in a civil court in New York in a fraud case in which the former American president is accused. Both of Trump's adult sons, Donald Jr. and Eric, have already testified in court this week, but Ivanka tried to avoid it.
Her lawyer tried to delay his client's appearance in court until November 8, saying Ivanka would face "undue hardship" by being called to testify on Wednesday, "in the middle of the school week." The court rejected this petition, and the public began to openly mock the daughter of the ex-president.
“Ivanka needs to find a nanny,” tweeted TV presenter Katie Phang.
“As always, Ivanka has her finger on the pulse of the challenges facing America's working people,” wrote the former president's niece, Mary L. Trump, who is known for her extreme hostility toward her uncle.
"She has 6 governesses, 4 nannies, housekeeping staff, a mother-in-law who lives 2 blocks away, and a brother's wife who looks after her children when she needs it. But yes, it's better to put Princess Ivanka's trial on hold because" school week" and it creates "undue hardship," tweeted prominent community activist Andrew Wortman.
