Ivanka Trump is being harshly criticized by the mainstream media for a Memorial Day tweet that critics claim wasn’t patriotic enough… but the media is ignoring shameless self-promotion from liberal celebrities on the day meant to honor our deceased veterans.
Even worse, these liberals failed to do their research… because they are dead wrong about Ivanka’s tweet.
The tweet under fire came from Ivanka’s brand page, not her personal account. Ivanka used her personal account to post a love-filled tribute to our troops.
In a typical marketing move for any business, the tweet facing criticism links to her shopping site, complete with suggestions on how to spend the holiday weekend.

This is the offensive tweet that liberals couldn’t handle!?
Leftist website Mashable tweeted an obnoxious response:
Of course Ivanka Trump's blog wants you to observe Memorial Day with champagne popsicles. Of course.https://t.co/qyvzhEwOXa

And Cosmopolitan called the tweet “insensitive”:

Meanwhile, her personal account displayed kind words for veterans who gave their lives for our citizens.
Of course, that was ignored.
Today we honor the men & women in our armed forces who have lost their lives to protect our freedom. Thank you for your service #MemorialDay

CNN, Harper’s Bazaar, and Glamour, are just a few of the sites that reported on her “insensitive” tweet.
Meanwhile, the mainstream media ignored other public figures that did the same exact thing.
Pop star and huge Hillary Clinton supporter Katy Perry used the holiday to promote her brand, tweeting about her line of shoes.

Where’s the outrage from CNN?
We’ll save you the time — it wasn’t mentioned at all.
While liberal celebs get a free pass by the “tolerant” left, Ivanka Trump gets attacked for having a brand?
Even on Memorial Day, liberal lunacy doesn’t take a day off.
