#UnwantedIvanka: Ivanka Trump made memes great again by 'gatecrashing' the G20 Summit
Ivanka Trump has learnt the hard way that you can't 'gatecrash' the G20 Summit just because you're the American president's daughter.
The annual event, which was held this past week in Japan, sees the world's leaders come together to discuss important issues that impact the global economy. Trump tagged along with her dad in her role as an adviser to the US president.
A video shot at the summit, which was originally released by the office of the French president, shows Trump awkwardly trying to worm her way into a conversation between French President Emmanuel Macron, Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, British Prime Minister Theresa May and International Monetary Fund chairperson Christine Lagarde.
Ivanka Trump appears to be trying to get involved in a talk among Macron, May, Trudeau and Lagarde (IMF head).

Political commentator Erin Ryan felt that the clip showed that Trump was "boxing way above her weight". She tweeted, "I find [Trump's] presence in high level diplomatic talks embarrassing, ridiculous, and dangerous".
To illustrate Ryan's belief that America's first daughter had no business being at the summit, she asked her Twitter followers to photoshop Ivanka into all sorts of scenes where she'd be equally out of place.
Thus the hashtag #UnwantedIvanka was born, and social media users have been having a field day with it.
Somebody please photoshop Ivanka the unwelcome interloper boxing way above her weight into the following:

- Megan Rapinoe’s goal celebration
- Nixon-Elvis meeting
- Beyoncé’s Coachella performance
- Curies’ lab
- constitutional convention
- cast of Big Little Lies
The reason I started the #UnwantedIvanka hashtag was because I find her presence in high level diplomatic talks embarrassing, ridiculous, and dangerous. The reason it took off is that *lots* of people, from all over the world, apparently agree.

Thanks to the magic of Photoshop, Trump's now gatecrashed all sorts of historical events. She was 'there' when Neil Armstrong took his first steps on the moon, and alongside Queen Elizabeth at her coronation. She's also made a cameo appearance in several iconic films and performed on stage with some of the world's most iconic musicians.

As one Twitter user pointed out, the silver lining of Trump's embarrassing G20 moment is that at least she's made memes great again. Her dad would be so proud.
