TranscriptA tweet by Ivanka Trump @ivankatrump saying "I cannot believe that Theodore is eight months old today! Happy birthday little teddy bear!" with an admittedly cute picture of a child smiling. It has a reply from @blacknmild saying "this isn't how birthdays work"

Yeah, we took photos of the kids in the same chair each month in the first year. It wasn't like we had parties, but this is normal new baby stuff. Plenty of legitimate reasons to hate the Trumps. Dogpiling on them for shit like this is petty and reinforces the right-wing narrative that the attacks are personal.

The attacks are personal, the whole family are evil fucking Nazis.

Sure but we don't hate the Nazis because they played card games.

Yes, which is a good reason to hate them. Posting baby pictures is not a good reason to hate them.

I got plenty of personal attacks for them.

If I speak up too loudly my wife and son have to flee the country.

How's that? Have I earned it? DO YOU MFERS HEAR ME

That's a valid reason to attack them. Like, physically. Not that I'm suggesting or condoning violence, but they are coming for our freedom. They aren't doing it in tweets of baby pictures.
