The New York Post is facing backlash for its Thursday cover featuring Kim Kardashianโs meeting with President Donald Trump. The newspaper is being called sexist for its emphasis on Kimโs body and repeated mention of her derriere using the headline โTrump Meets Rump,โ calling the reality star โKim Thong Un,โ and referring to the meeting as a โBig Ass Summit.โ
On Wednesday, Kim met with Trump to discuss criminal justice reform and specifically pardoning Alice Marie Johnson. At the beginning of May, news broke that Kim was working with the White House to pardon Johnson, a first-time, non-violent drug offender serving a life sentence without parole.
Trump thanked Kim in a tweet.ย
Fans and critics of Kim weighed in on the Postย cover. Some thought the paper's take on the meeting was hilarious.
While others called it out for being โsexist and pathetic.โ
The meeting was probably a dream come true from Trumpโs heyday hosting the Apprentice. He angrily fired Khloรฉ Kardashian because, as sources told HuffPost, โHe called her a โpiglet,โโ asking โWhat is this? We canโt even get the hot one?โ
