PARTLY FACETIOUS: Ivanka Trump and Maryam Nawaz

28 Dec, 2016

"Comparing Ivanka Trump with Maryam Nawaz is just not appropriate."
"All I meant to say was that Ivanka has made millions on her own, OK she did use her dad's name but she runs her own company..."
"You are ill-informed my dear... Maryam is the beneficial owner of millions as well, I mean isn't that what the leaked Panama papers revealed? Now where I would agree with you is the status of the sons in law.....you have Jared, Ivanka's husband who is pretty much an insider as far as the President Elect is concerned and you have Captain Safdar and I will say no more."
"Hmmm..."
"And talking of the respective fathers of these two women let's see... Trump Tower versus Raiwind..."
"There are many Trump Towers and golf courses and other immovable assets and you have only Raiwind, and not even Mayfair.....see that to me is a reflection of the different parenting styles of the two men... Mian sahib imbibed a lot of family values in his children and trusts them enough not to insist on ownership while D Trump has all businesses in his own name."
"Hey, back off will you! Mian sahib's children are all adults now and have inherited their grandfather's penchant for making money..."
"Don't be facetious...anyway did you see The Accountant?"
"I see him every day on television... and need I add, the Ministry of Finance has a very active media wing, the Prime Minister's media wing eat your heart out, and unconfirmed reports indicate that Dar sahib reviews his own coverage in the media each day and if it is less than that of any one else heads roll... and even when he is in Lahore during the weekends his Ministry issues press releases of his chairing meetings in Islamabad and..."
"Don't be facetious... in any case, I was referring to the Ben Affleck movie The Accountant...who was autistic but a ninja warrior and yes he did some money laundering..."
"Ah ha!"
"I give up."
