Man thrown off plane for abusing Trump’s daughter, Ivanka

An American airline has thrown a passenger off a
flight after he confronted Ivanka Trump,
President-elect Donald Trump’s eldest daughter.
According to TMZ, “an out-of-control passenger”
on Ms Trump’s JetBlue flight out of JFK airport in
New York “began verbally berating her and
jeering at her three children.”
The unidentified passenger, holding his own child
at the time, reportedly told Ms Trump, who was
flying economy on the budget airline, “Your father
is ruining the country.”

He went on to express surprise that Ms Trump,
whose father owns his own 757 Boeing jet, was
travelling with the masses. “Why is she on our
flight?” he said. “She should be flying private.”
Eventually the passenger was escorted off the
plane by airline personnel.
Ms Trump was travelling with Secret Service
protection at the time, according to a Secret
Service official.
Although the disgruntled passenger has yet to be
identified, one Twitter user, Matt Lasner, a
professor at Hunter College in New York, posted
on the social media platform about the incident.
In since deleted tweets, Mr Lasner wrote that he
and his husband were “kicked off the plane” after
his husband “expressed displeasure in a calm
tone.”
In a previous tweet, Mr Lasner wrote that the
couple had spotted Ms Trump and her husband,
Jared Kushner, and that his husband “was
chasing them down to harass them”.
So far there has been no official word from the
Trump team regarding the incident.
JetBlue said: “The decision to remove a customer
from a flight is not taken lightly.
If the crew determines that a customer is causing
conflict on the aircraft, the customer will be asked
to deplane, especially if the crew feels the
situation runs the risk of escalation during flight.
“In this instance, our team worked to re-
accommodate the party on the next available
flight.”
