U.S. President Donald Trump responded on Monday to criticism over his daughter taking his seat at the G20 world leaders summit in the only way he knows how—by calling out a Clinton.
It didn’t end well.
The latest dust-up started when a photo showing first daughter Ivanka Trump at the G20 table in Germany went viral, leading people to wonder how the 35-year-old businesswoman woman, former model, and current White House employee was qualified to have a seat alongside the world’s leaders.
Today, President Trump offered an explanation:
“When I left Conference Room for short meetings with Japan and other countries, I asked Ivanka to hold seat. Very Standard.” President Trump tweeted earlier this morning.
When I left Conference Room for short meetings with Japan and other countries, I asked Ivanka to hold seat. Very standard. Angela M agrees!
