Doubts raised Trump fans will care about his 'creepy Ivanka complex'

Donald Trump has been criticized for years for purportedly inappropriate and even sexual comments about his daughter Ivanka, and those criticisms have ramped up recently with new allegations from Trump's time in office, but none of that is likely to matter to diehard Trump fans, according to a Guardian columnist.

Recently, the discussion of Trump's alleged obsession with Ivanka was revived when it was reported that his former chief of staff John Kelly once had to step in and remind the then-president that Ivanka was his own daughter. Those newer allegations come from the book of Miles Taylor, a former Trump official.

Those alleged comments, which are reinforced by on-camera comments Trump has made about Ivanka in the past, could possibly do nothing to affect Trump's loyal base. That was the case when Trump was found liable for sexually abusing E. Jean Carroll, according to columnist Arwa Mahdawi.

"While it is clear that Trump fans don’t care about the former president’s misogyny, might they care about the claims he sexualized his own daughter? After all, these are the same people who have whipped themselves into a moral panic about the non-existent danger LGBTQ+ people pose to children. These are the same people who can’t go a day without spewing unfounded slurs about gay people being 'groomers,'" Mahdawi wrote Saturday. "These are the same people who are intent on banning books from school libraries because they’re worried that references to race or gender identity will harm their children. They’re the people triggered by a book about seahorses, for God’s sake, because it contained too many details about their mating rituals."

Mahdawi concludes by suggesting that Trump's loyal supporters "have no problem voting for a guy who pays off porn stars and allegedly fantasizes about his daughter. Republican family values in action."
