You know her, Ivanka Trump, daughter of he-who-must-not-be-named, no I’m not talking about the Lord Voldemort. I’m talking about Donald J. Trump. Recently she decided to buy an ear cuff. She did receive the ear cuff but New York-based Jewelry company Lady Grey burned her by turning her purchase into a donation to liberal causes.
Lady Grey posted a photo of an order from Ivanka Trump on Instagram, with a personalized note to Ivanka from the Lady Grey.
Dear @ivankatrump, #thanksbutnothanks #payitFORWARD ➡️

It says: “Dear Ivanka, Thank you so much for your web order! We’re happy to let you know that the proceeds of your sale have been generously donated to the American Immigration Council, the Everytown for Gun Safety organization, and the Hillary Clinton campaign. We hope you enjoy your new Lady Grey #helixearcuff. Best, Jill + Sabine,”
Because of this a lot of people got butt-hurt and left threating comments, just like this one. Posted by user scott_asay : Your company is for cowards!!! I will post on ever social site I belong to forever what a despicable company you are. I do wish you a painful loss of your company. Have a nice day!!!
According to the Lady Grey website, the ear cuff is gold-plated bronze and costs $84.
When owners were asked why they decided to take such an action they answered:
“While we were flattered to receive an order from Ivanka Trump. our social and political views couldn’t be further from those of the Trump campaign. When we received her order, we instantly felt compelled to take the money and donate it to a few organizations that were more aligned with our ideals” co-founder and designer Jill Martinell told The Cut website.
