      “OMFG [Ivanka Trump where the hell are you?!?!?!? Politics aside do something FFS,” the user, Jil, wrote.

      Does that really sound like someone who isn’t planning to vote for Trump?

        No, not at all. “Politics aside” is used when you disagree with someone on politics.

          So you think a Biden voter would want Ivanka to step in to make Trump a better candidate?

          Why would she want that?

            No, I think it’s just an insult.

                She didn’t say anything about his campaign. If we’re talking about him having dementia, which is what this whole thing is about, then Jil is probably telling her to get help with that. But the reality is that Jil probably doesn’t care and this is just an insult.

                  I just don’t understand how asking Ivanka to “do something FFS” is either an insult or a request for medical help. Neither of those claims make any sense to me.

                    The whole thing is about him having dementia. It’s the context. How can that not make sense? How does making up it being about the campaign make more sense?
