Full Frontal host Samantha Bee ruffled plenty of feathers after she called Ivanka Trump a "feckless c--t" during the Wednesday night episode of her TBS show.
And it wasn't just people who are fans of Ivanka's work in her role as senior White House adviser. Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders criticized the "vile and vicious" comment, and said that "the collective silence by the left and its media allies is appalling." Many prominent media outlets were quick to denounce Bee's ill-advised insult, however, including media figures normally quite critical of President Trump and his family.
