Ivanka Trump enfrenta una ola de críticas después de tuitear una foto suya sosteniendo una lata de frijoles Goya. El tweet de la hija del presidente incluye el eslogan de la marca Goya, "Si es Goya, tiene que ser bueno", tanto en inglés como en español. También publicó la imagen en sus páginas de Facebook e Instagram.
Trump's publication takes place days after Goya CEO, Robert Unanue, praises President Donald Trump in the White House.
"For all of us it is a blessing to have a leader like President Donald Trump who is a builder," Unanue said on Thursday next to Trump.
Almost immediately, the hashtags #Boycottgoya, #Goyafoods and #Goyaway (Goya Vete) became a trend on Twitter and other social networks.The expressions of resentment began to arrive from all sectors, without the lack of relevant political names.
That response was counteratacious online by Trump followers, which demonstrates how any brand, whether to manufacture clothes or, as does Goya, beans, olive oil and marinate, faces possible risk prior to what is alreadyA very controversial presidential election.
Those who press to boycott Goya products cited Trump's trajectory of derogatory statements towards Hispanics, especially government measures to separate immigrant families on the border between Mexico and the United States, and Trump's aptitude towards Puerto Rico and hispopulation.
The representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez said that he would learn to cook the products that Goya manufactures.Lin-Manuel Miranda, author and protagonist of the successful Broadway show "Hamilton", coincided with the congresswoman.
Unanue se mantuvo firme durante una aparición el viernes en el programa “Fox & Friends”.
"I will not apologize to say - and especially when the president of the United States calls you - you would say,‘ right, I'm sorry, I'm busy, no thanks? ’,” Said Unanue."I didn't tell the Obama and I didn't tell President Trump."
Trump has struggled to gain Latin votes, which could be decisive in Arizona and other states.On Wednesday he received the Mexican president Andrés Manuel López Obrador in pompous words and called Mexico an appreciated partner.His tone contrasted with that of his 2016 campaign when he called the Mexicans "rapists" and thundered against migrants who enter the country without authorization.
Regarding Ivanka Trump's tweet, many question the ethics of their support for Goya products using the company's slogan on its tweet and holding a can of black beans.
The representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez tweeted about the possible conflict of interest and wrote in Spanish that "if it is Trump, it has to be corrupt."
The tweet raised questions about whether Trump violates federal ethics norms that prohibit the use of "public office for their own or private benefit, for the support of any product, service or company."Walter Shaub, the former director of the Government Ethics Office, said the Tweet was "clearly a violation of the Government's misuse of the regulation of the position," according to a CBSNews.com report
The White House defended the publication.
“Only the media and the Movement of Cultural Call (called Bicot) criticand given to the Hispanic community, ”said Communications Assistant Carolina Hurley."Ivanka is proud of this strong Hispanic property business with deep roots in the United States and has every right to express your personal support," reported the television.
Ivanka Trump and her husband, Jared Kushner, are advisors to President Trump.
