South Korea will be delighted to host the President's daughter, more so that some boring politician. Don't pretend it's insulting to SK, not unless you can actually show me them complaining.
    Well first, they're not going to complain publicly because that's not how diplomacy is done.

    Second, you can try to spin it into something positive all you want, it's still nepotism.

    You can't have it both ways.

    Either

    1. She is working for the US gov't and thus violating anti-nepotism laws.

    or

    2. She isn't working for the US gov't and shouldn't be meeting foreign diplomats or attending high level meetings that require security clearance she doesn't have.

    You take your pick. I'm going with 2.

    Not trying to.

    Either

    It's not that.

    2. She isn't working for the US gov't
    Right

    and shouldn't be meeting foreign diplomats
    She's not allowed to have friends?

    or attending high level meetings
    It's not a "high level" meeting. How many strawmen are you gonna cram into this post??

    that require security clearance she doesn't have.
    The meeting obviously doesn't require security clearance. That's just another strawman you invented for seemingly no other reason than to protect your pristine perception of Pakman.

    You take your pick. I'm going with 2.
    So we're agreed then....it's not nepotism?
