Ivanka Trump Just Followed Rihanna On Twitter — And Her Fans Are Not Having It

Ivanka Trump might not share the same views as her father in all things, but the daughter of the President still receives her fair share of criticism.
She was recently called a hypocrite for praising US workers as being "the best", while using foreign workers to produce her goods. She also gave a talk about female empowerment in India, while employing factories that violated human rights of workers.
Then there's the whole messy business of the Trump name being tied to White Supremacy, something that doesn't sit well with a lot of Americans. Which could explain why Ivanka is trying her best to show she is "cool" on social media by following some relevant pop culture icons, like Rihanna for example, to boost her appeal.
Seems Trump is constantly exposing himself to be the racist we all know he really is, and helping expose these dangerous conservative radical Right wing groups who are trying, with success, to bring the white supremacy of the Confederacy into complete control of the US. pic.twitter.com/cxrCl4XcTi

And yes, it took Ivanka until the year 2017 to follow the "Umbrella" singer on the social media platform, but we digress. Better late than never right?
IvankaTrump has just followed @rihanna.

— 🦁 (@skyIizzle) December 28, 2017Rihanna's been pretty vocal about her distaste of Donald Trump and his policies.
Back in January of 2017 when Trump implemented the unconstitutional travel ban, Rihanna was pretty vocal about how she felt regarding the ruling.
Disgusted! The news is devastating! America is being ruined right before our eyes! What an immoral pig you have to be to implement such BS!!
— Rihanna (@rihanna) January 29, 2017Then there was the singer's criticism of how Trump handled the crisis in Puerto Rico.
Dear @realDonaldTrump I know you've probably already seen this, but I just wanted to make sure!
Don't let your people die like this. pic.twitter.com/mDO848JAUx
So people are really flustered as to why Ivanka would elect to follow BadGirlRiRi.
Rihanna better block.
