Ivanka Trump was aboard a JetBlue flight leaving New York on Thursday morning — with her three children — when an angry passenger began aggressively yelling at her.
TMZ reports the man, who also had a child in his arms, was “jeering” at the 35-year-old about her father and President-elect, Donald Trump, screaming:
“Your father is ruining the country. Why is she on our flight. She should be flying private.”

A member of the crew eventually escorted the unruly passenger off of the flight — but he reportedly continued his tirade by saying:
“You’re kicking me off for expressing my opinion?!!”
The outlet reports the significant other of the out-of-control passenger tweeted an hour before the flight:
“Ivanka and Jared at JFK T5, flying commercial. My husband chasing them down to harass them. #banalityofevil”
The husband also shared (and then deleted both posts):
We’ll let you know as soon as we hear more.
