re: Revenge on TRUMP > FAKE Presidential Seal
Ivanka Trump Gets 'Death Stare' From World Leader as She Tries to Join G20 Chat
President Donald Trump's daughter's attempt to join a conversation with Theresa May and Emmanuel Macron backfired
Daily Mirror UK, 1 July 2019.
Donald Trump has let his daughter stand in for him at international events around the world.
But at the G20 summit, international critics who accuse the US President of nepotism took unbridled glee in watching Ivanka Trump falter in the presence of powerful world leaders.
America's 'first daughter,' was caught on camera attempting to join a conversation with UK Prime Minister Theresa May , French president Emmanuel Macron, and Canadian PM Justin Trudeau.
The clip released by the French Government captured the whole exchange.
But no words were required from International Monetary Fund director Christine Lagarde, whose facial reactions to Trump's attempt at international diplomacy instead went viral.

In the 19 seconds of footage from the G20 summit in Osaka released by the Elysée Palace, Macron can be heard finishing a sentence about "social justice".
Trump interjects with either "it's on," or "it's all."
.....
May replies to Macron: "As soon as you start talking about the economic aspect a lot of people start listening who wouldn't otherwise listen."
"Start listening," echoes Trump.
"And same with the defence side, I think, in terms of the whole sort of..." she offers, gesturing with her hands before trailing off.

Trump finishes, smiling and nodding: "Being very male-dominated." .....
As Trump speaks, Lagarde can be seen frowning and glancing at Trudeau.
The clip of the exchange attracted a widespread reaction.
High profile New York congresswoman Alexandra Ocasio-Cortez led criticism of Trump's presence at the summit, highlighting that the president's daughter had no reason to be at the important event.
American investigative journalist Olga Lautman tweeted a copy of the video, labelling it "humiliating" for the US.
Ivanka Trump was attending the summit with her husband and Trump son-in-law Jared Kushner, who the president appointed as his special senior adviser in what has become a trend of the President furnishing his close family members with top White House roles.
Investigative journalist Olga Lautman labelled Ivanka's presence at the event 'humiliating'.
That criticism continued as the couple then joined the President in South Korea.
Ivanka Trump accompanied her father today on his historic crossing through the peninsula's Demilitarised Zone and into North Korea, where he became the first sitting President to enter the territory.
He held ad hoc talks with Kim Jong-un, who accepted the President's offer in a tweet that he would be prepared to meet the hermit state's leader on his soil to "shake his hand and say Hello".
The couple then joined the president in what would have been a tête-à-tête with Kim - adding fuel to accusations the Trumps are establishing a dynastic approach to international relations.
The president's daughter tweeted that it was "an honour" to be a member of the US delegation at the G20 summit, and later told media stepping onto North Korean soil was "surreal."
Quote:
Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez
It may be shocking to some, but being someone’s daughter actually isn’t a career qualification.
It hurts our diplomatic standing when the President phones it in & the world moves on.
The US needs a President working the G20.
Bringing a qualified diplomat couldn’t hurt either.
