Blue-Check Twitter Trolls Ivanka Trump For Asking Them to Guess Who She Voted For on Mail-In Ballot: ‘Covid?’

First Daughter Ivanka Trump ignited a conflagration of backlash from verified Twitter users by posting a picture of herself proudly displaying her mail-in ballot — with anti-mail ballot crusader President Donald Trump seated next to her.

Ms. Trump posted the photo on Monday, along with the caption “I’ll give you one guess who we’re voting for???”

But she diminished some of the suspense by adding “#Trump2020” followed by three flag emojis.

What followed was a flood of reactions from journalists, celebrities, political ethicists, and other verified users — many of which pointed out the fact that Trump has been crusading against mail-in voting by falsely claiming it is inherently fraudulent, some of which featured a variety of guesses, and some gently implying a gendered insult.

Ivanka Trump is not even making the smallest effort to comply with the law. This is a blatant Hatch Act violation and at least her 20th in two weeks. https://t.co/U5Lc6WDt8f

Ms. Trump’s father would continue railing against mail-in voting just hours after the photo was posted.
