What’s wrong with this picture? (Hint: Many, many things.)
At this point, Ivanka Trump has to realize that her attempts to endear herself to the public while remaining complicit in the Trump presidency will continue to result in little more than mockery and vitriol.

Based on the response of Twitter users, few were able to overlook a very staged photo of Ivanka in junior scientist mode, carefully pouring a chemical compound … into her hand? On the floor? It’s difficult to tell exactly what she’s doing other than trying her best to cosplay a scientist.

Going beyond the aesthetics of the photo, some more scientifically adept souls took to criticizing her dangerous lab practices.
