Actress Scarlett Johansson called Ivanka Trump “cowardly” for saying that the greatest change she could make would be behind closed doors. She made the remarks while speaking at the “Women in the World Summit” Thursday.

“I’ve been thinking a lot about Ivanka Trump actually very recently,” Johansson began. “Um, I’m sure you saw the interview she gave with Gail King yesterday. But, uh, it was kind of baffling, I have to say, it was really baffling. And you know I think you can’t have it both ways right?”

“If you take a job as a public advocate, then you must advocate publicly,” she said to applause from the audience. “And yesterday she said something which I found particularly disappointing. Which is that she felt the greatest change that she was going to, y’know, the biggest influence that she would have, or the change that she would make, actually would be behind closed doors, nobody would actually know that she had made this change.”

“I thought to myself, well that’s empowering!” she smirked sarcastically.

“How old fashioned!” Johansson exclaimed. “Y’know this idea that behind a great man is a great woman, what about being in front of that person, or next to them, or standing on your own? You know what I mean, it’s so, it’s such an old fashioned concept that to be this powerful woman you can’t appear to be concerned with like that somebody is going to think that you’re bitchy, or that you’re, ah, I think powerful women often get concerned that they’re gonna be seen in this unforgiven light, and y’know screw that!”

“It’s so old-fashioned and it’s so uninspired,” she continued, “and actually, really cowardly. And I was just so disappointed by that interview she gave yesterday.”

“Uhm, I can’t imagine how complicated it must be to see your parent y’know go for,” she explained, “in this sudden, y’know, in the that position he’s in, and know, deep down, and not so deep down, that it’s a position that he never actually really wanted, and now he’s in this position and he finds himself there.”

“And I think it’s, it must be, I think as a daughter,” she concluded, “and as someone who looks up to a parental figure like that, it must be pretty, it’s a unique and strange thing. It baffles me, the whole situation baffles me.”

Anyone else see the irony in Scarlett Johansson's commentary sounding as broken as one of Trump's speeches..? Did they go to the same schools?

But I feel like Ivankas point was more that she doesn't need the spotlight, she wants to do actions that people won't say, and contribute in ways that don't require attention.

Say what you will about her beliefs, but Ivanka is very intelligent. I'd trust her a whole lot more as president than her ancient crusty father.

Yeah we'll never forget ScarJo's grand speech at the Woman's Rally that changed life for us forever. That's how you bring about change!

Not working with actual people in power to push an agenda, that's for dumbasses and virtue signalers.

Oh wait

Kind of surprising, actually, I figured the suit she was in alone would have been enough to get plenty of people to go.

Maybe it was poorly advertised.

Or rather, she's doing this in to try and regain her street creds after facing criticisms for stealing jobs from Asians.

Um, it's like if I, you know if I were to take like a picture, right, and then, you know, the picture was just alright. But the picture, right, you see, the picture, you know, it's not too bad, but, you know, as a photographer, the picture just seems like, I don't know, um, like strange, you know.

I agree. Ivanka is extremely smart and offers a lot more than an actress. I feel like she just wanted to take a cheap shot at Trump because her actual point...was pointless.

Ivanka seems like she's actually brighter than Scar Jo. Who knew? Politics are actually done on golf courses and behind closed doors. That "rah rah" garbage is just that -- garbage. It's like she didn't pay attention in history class and notice how Nancy Reagan or Eleanor Roosevelt quietly ran the country during some of our darkest times. When you actually wield power, you have no need to flaunt it.

Scarlett Johansson Sounds dumb as fuck when she isn't reading lines.

Typical women, tearing each other down instead of building themselves up.

Video of it. Not surprised her lack of class in criticizing (bullying tbh) an example of a powerful woman would be praised by that crowd.

There's nothing particularly wrong with what Scarlet said.

She wants to be an advocate or women and be a public servant, then she should be talking to the public more. She doesn't have to be Michelle Obama, but she should reach out to the people and imo try to be a positive role model, and try to steer her dad to look less of a jack ass.

Saying something like "well I'll work behind closed doors" sounds like she either has nothing really to work on, or doesn't care about the people
