Ivanka Trump draws criticism over Albanian resort plan and lavish social media posts

A tourism development on an Albanian island backed by Ivanka Trump and linked to her brother-in-law Jared Kushner has sparked protests from local residents, environmental activists and critics who warn the project could damage the coastline and undermine public land. Demonstrators allege the resort represents a broader pattern of private wealth influencing public decisions and raise concerns about transparency and ecological impact.

Separately, Ivanka Trump’s recent social‑media activity, including posts about attending the FIFA World Cup final, has attracted further backlash. Commenters accuse her of being out of touch with ordinary Americans, highlighting the contrast between her affluent lifestyle and the economic struggles faced by many. The criticism underscores ongoing scrutiny of the former first‑daughter’s public presence despite her reduced political role.
