Ivanka keynote speaker at CES

[Homerboy]

Not shockingly this has drawn large criticism. Not so much because she's "a Trump" (though that likely isn't helping) but because of the lack of female keynotes in the past and now they pick Ivanka who is hardly qualified passing up much more qualified women.

LOL her tech experience is hardly "slight." It's more like zero, unless you count texting and tweeting.

 

[sactoking]

I'm surprised this is allowed to be in her "portfolio."

 

[sandorski]

WTF? Lisa Su turned them down?

 

[Fanatical Meat]

I would bet this is due to something like a big or a few big electronic manufacturers have found #MAGA Men buy more electronics or pay more for electronics or buy better margin electronics or some combinations of all.

 

[Commodus]

This isn't at the main CES stage, I believe, but still.. I don't know what they're thinking. While she probably won't be heckled, it's going to draw a lot of negative attention both from attendees and critics.

She should be the keynote speaker next door at the adult entertainment expo. She's just as qualified for that.

I couldn't decide between "this should be good" and "what could go wrong?" while contemplating on what to insert in this post.

Great idea. She can chair their panel for incest fetishists.

You forgot that she probably knows how to turn on all sort of adult toys.....

 

[blankslate]

Was Jade Raymond ever a keynote speaker for CES?

She has a computer science degree and was involved in a few well known games.

Ivanka should do the mask on mask thing and peel her face off in the middle of her talk.

But she's not Jenn:

Ivanka is like her daddy: Not qualified to do anything yet somehow manages to do damn near everything. Its good to be pretty and blonde in America.

I was listening to her in an interview earlier and concluded I really like her voice. It is very Slate like, mostly smooth with a subtle roughness, a little Airy, but with a certain Confidence. What she said wasn't profound, quite frankly it was some BS rhetoric, but it seemed like some Educated intelligence was behind it. On the Grifter Scale I'd say she's better than her Dad, she's not as Self Centered and/or Boastful, having a deceptive Humility.

Will she be personally demonstrating her trademarked and patented sausage casing technology from China??? Guys, I’m never gonna let this one go...

Still have not seen. Its on my list. I swear.

May be more appropriate as a cosplay of herself at Comic-con? She could be Paris Hilton I suppose.

What, because she knows how to use a smart phone?

Yeah. Bimbo vs CEO who completely turned around a company headed right for bankruptcy and made them into the technological leader despite their main competitor having boatloads of cash for R & D. Durr, let's pick shit for brains.

Could we see a Trump family dynasty of politicians in the future?

Could be. Americans elected Bush's idiot son in 2004.
