Ivanka Trump was blasted on Tuesday for promoting a can of Black beans from Goya Foods, the U.S.’ largest Hispanic-owned food company, in an apparent bid to boost the company’s fortunes after its CEO praised Trump and triggered a boycott of the brand.... [+]Trump, senior adviser to her father, tweeted a picture of herself holding up a can of the beans alongside the caption: “If it’s Goya, it has to be good. Si es Goya, tiene que ser bueno.
Ivanka’s post appears to fall foul of the ethical standards set for those working in the executive branch., “An employee shall not use or permit the use of his Government position or title or any authority associated with his public office to endorse any product, service or enterprise.” Meanwhile, Ivanka’s tweet follows calls to boycott Goya by some consumers critical of CEO Robert Unanue’s endorsement of the President, particularly among the LatinxIn a visit to the White House last week, Unanue called Trump an “incredible builder” and said the U.S. was “blessed” to have a leader like him.in response: “Oh look, it’s the sound of me Googling “how to make your own Adobo.”political football in a debate about freedom of speech between conservative and liberal commentators.
Other critics on social media questioned whether the billionaire's daughter was genuinely a fan of the brand's canned black beans, and why a White House official was promoting a business.Ivanka is not the first member of the Trump administration accused of breaching ethics codes in this way.

Yup, dems will never waste a chance to go after Trumps office, and in typical fashion the left will eat their own by having Ocasio boycotting Goya. We get the message loud and clear. But guess what? Trump2020Landslide STILL!
“Ethics” and “standards” are 2 words that simply do not apply to the Trump administration. Competency is another.
