G20 SUMMIT: FLOTUS RUBS ELBOWS WITH PUTIN -- IVANKA REMAINS FOCUS OF INTERNATIONAL MEDIA OBSESSION
As we observe the G20 Summit coming to a close, the President and First Lady returning home soon, the platform of what we here in the United States call the Public Court of Opinion, it starts to heat up.
There have been several twists during the G20 Summit. Among them, Ivanka Trump, First Daughter Of The United States, or FDOTUS, takes a seat at the Round Table, among world leaders--blowing the minds of people world wide. Many media platforms report that while FDOTUS took President Trump's seat, the President himself was attending meetings which he saw as more important for US national interests. This decisive action taken by President Trump held true to campaign promises that President Trump made when he pledged an America First agenda platform. Many across the world stage, especially in government and in media saw this action of allowing Ivanka to sit at the G20 Summit table as bad move. Mainstream Americans, many of them do not hold that same.
Of course, media is quick to point out who FDOTUS was sitting next to and all too quick to judge why, without asking the President of the United States directly why this was the case. For those unaware, Ivanka Trump, FDOTUS currently holds a position as an advisor to President Trump. Critics are quick to point out that this particular sitting was for World Leaders Only. In yet another twist for the media minds, we see that FLOTUS also sat in on meetings, interestingly, she sat next to one high profile leader, none other than Putin himself. Oh, no, that was a meal. This begs the question, how many important meetings have taken place over dinner, lunch, golf, tennis, or other activities? Important meetings don't always take place at a big round table.
What I find most perplexing is that Media Heads, Politicos, as well as other powerhouses are more worried about Ivanka interacting on the world stage, even holding an advisory position, than they are about FLOTUS interaction with Putin. The lead Russian, himself. Think on that for a moment. Why? After all of the busyness and distractions, who sat in on what and next to whom... at the end of the day isn't it most important the work that gets done? Apparently many do not think so. We must look at this a bit further, really.
Now, for those who have merely lived off of the government teet, this would seem entirely inappropriate, however for those across the world who have worked within industry, we have seen in many cases where appointees sit in for the Top Dog. In fact, it is not uncommon for this to be the case in the corporate world on a regular basis, especially for those large companies that are in active growth phases. In many cases we see that entire letters are drafted by the hand of another in the stead of a Top Dog in industry, even signing on his or her behalf, with the appropriate annotations of course-- sight unseen by the same Top Dog. Business needs to get done, deals need made, actions need to be taken.
So, is what we are seeing more media hysteria? Is what we are observing a multifaceted and corporate world approach to United States International Relations? It very well could be. There could also be a reason why President Trump sees Ivanka Trump, FDOTUS as well as FLOTUS as the perfect people for these most important interactions and observations. President Trump can trust his wife and daughter, the same may not be true for even the closest to him within the Administration.
Indeed, by calling on FDOTUS as well as FLOTUS at such a world stage as the G20 Summit, The Donald sure has shown he wants to get a great amount of work done. Having three bodies instead of one on the job can do just that. If you are still on the fence about appropriate function of government, interactions of representatives, if the roles were reversed, if Hillary Clinton were to be President and Chelsea Clinton held an advisory role and sat at that same table, and Bill Clinton were to be talking to Putin, would you be applauding or condemning? Food for thought. It is time Americans and American leadership look to getting work done, not posturing and gossiping about every twist and turn.
This angle or view has not been one that media has touched on. It appears that media is no longer just reporting the facts they are in a take down of the United States President. This actually has many across the United States, especially in the religious or spiritual communities buzzing about what has been really taking place on the world stage and as it relates to The Donald Presidency. WND.com has reported about an interesting angle which I have personally touched on many times. I suggest you read it. There may be different views than your own expressed, but I definitely think that it is a worthwhile perspective to consider on some level or another.
