Ivanka for Senate?

I’ve seen my share of these “Go Trump Family Members, Go!” trial balloons for some time now and I can’t think of a worse idea, especially this one which appears mumbled over the phone by someone named “Kared Jushner”.

Name recognition is a fine idea if your name isn’t centered around a single individual. Hell, the Kennedys have been making hay off that family name for six decades now.

But the idea that people should feel compelled to vote for the individual responsible for some of the worst policies in their father’s one-term administration isn’t just baffling, but an indication that no one in Trump’s orbit has learned their lesson from this go-around, and the only Trump kid who has a semblance of a shot at political office is probably Barron.

What do they feed that kid?!

On top of that, look at the calculation here – Rubio’s a huge pain in the ass but primary him over, oh, I don’t know, that goofus from Utah?
Look, if you’re gonna go for dynastic carpetbagger politics, at least go all out.
