Why People Are Outraged by Ivanka Trump's Insensitive Tweet

In the midst of the confusion and anger ignited by the new president's most recent executive order, Ivanka Trump shared an alarmingly out-of-touch picture on Twitter. Posing with her husband, Jared Kushner, who is also an adviser to Trump, Ivanka posted a photo showing off her outfit, and it's sparking outrage.

On Friday, Trump signed an executive order that temporarily banned the entry of immigrants from seven primarily Muslim countries into the United States and specifically bars Syrian refugees from entering the country indefinitely. Ivanka shared the image hours after the order was signed, as thousands of protesters began to descend upon airports nationally to protest the order and its impact.

While a federal judge temporarily granted a stay for green card holders who had been detained in airports across the country, the White House still later clarified that green card holders would be admitted.

People on social media were swift in pointing out the inappropriate timing of Ivanka's tweet. Had it been any other evening, the photo might not have sparked as much outrage, but during an unprecedented crisis like the present one, it's drawing criticism.

Below are some reactions.
