Jared Kushner tried a similar thing in Serbia[0] and failed after a public outrage.

That Ivanka podcast interview about this island will go down as a masterpiece in tone-deafness. I assume there are already memes of it.

My absolute favorite, for those who missed it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oBEDGJE0_yI

The short segment I saw on reddit, I believe, of Ivanka talking about an island gave VERY strong AI vibes. Is this interview real and are there links? This is the first I've seen it referenced so haven't given it much thought.

Are you unaware of how vapid celebrities and rich people can be, especially in puff-piece interviews?

[dieselgate]

I am not unaware. The video I saw looked AI generated and until seeing the below YT link I did not believe the interview was real.

tl;dl We found a true paradise and want to destroy it to build a resort.

It doesn't matter how tone deaf it is, they are so wealthy they don't care.

And Trump's plan to build a skyscraper on Australia's Gold Coast was nixed a month or two ago because his partner on it bailed because of its "toxic associations".

[dzhiurgis]

If you ever been to Gold Coast, that place is perfect fit for Trumps toxicity.

[FireBeyond]

Not since I was a child in the 90s. Haven't been to Brisvegas in 20 years either. But to be even too toxic for Trump? Hah.
