Jones, an avid supporter of the president’s hard-line immigration policies, wasn’t having it. In a nine-minute video rant posted to his YouTube page Thursday, Jones railed against Ivanka Trump for breaking with her father.

“We did not elect Ivanka Trump to be the 45th president of the United States,” he said in the video. “I think she’s talented, she’s beautiful, I think the dresses she wears, her clothing line are cool. I have nothing against her personally, or Jared Kushner. But we didn’t elect him to be president either.”

Kushner is Trump’s husband and a senior adviser to the president.

Trump has indeed bucked her father on one of the most contentious issues of his young presidency, saying in an interview with NBC News Tuesday that she was open to the idea of accepting more asylum seekers.

Her remarks came at the W20 Summit in Berlin, where she gave a panel discussion and had dinner with German Chancellor Angela Merkel, who in the past two years has welcomed hundreds of thousands of refugees from Iraq, Syria and elsewhere into Germany.

“I think there is a global humanitarian crisis that’s happening, and we have to come together, and we have to solve it,” Ivanka Trump told NBC News. Asked about admitting more Syrians in particular, she responded, “That has to be part of the discussion, but that’s not going to be enough in itself.”

Her father has taken the opposite position. As a candidate, he vowed to block new refugees, calling them a “Trojan horse” that would unleash terrorism at home. As president, he has issued a pair of executive orders seeking to bar refugees and migrants from several Muslim-majority countries. “The danger is clear,” he said earlier this year.

Jones lamented the father-daughter feud in his video, which he shot himself from the front seat of his car while sitting in traffic in downtown Austin.

“We didn’t elect her. And she’s over in Germany with Merkel that opened the borders up for all the Islamicists,” said Jones, who was wearing a white collared shirt and a silver wristwatch. “And she says for women we should let refugees in, and that her dad’s wrong and she wants him to change his mind. What! From seven unvetted countries where the Islamicists just issue fake passports basically to terrorists.”

Jones went on to argue that President Trump was making good on his promises to defeat the Islamic State and al-Qaeda in Syria. But as a result, he said, some terrorists were going to be “squeezed out” and could commit attacks against Westerners.

“So the answer is bring more in, because you’re for women,” he said incredulously. “More genital mutilation, more burqas.”

That language is nothing out of the ordinary for Jones, who runs the website Infowars and a popular radio program of the same name. In addition to promoting a wide array of conspiracy theories, Jones and his colleagues regularly inveigh against the supposed dangers posed by refugees, particularly those from Muslim countries.

As The Washington Post and CNN have noted, no refugee has carried out a fatal terrorist attack in the United States since screening protocols were adopted in 1980.

President Trump has called Jones a “nice guy” with an “amazing” reputation.

Despite his concerns about Ivanka Trump’s new stance on refugees, Jones ended his video on a hopeful note.

“The good news is, Trump for the nationalist brand is very strong,” he said, referring to the president.

“We can’t just become demoralized if Trump starts going sideways or off his trajectory or something,” he added. “Don’t let the fact that Trump hasn’t gotten everything done — he’s gotten a lot done — or that his daughter’s out there doing bizarre stuff get you depressed.”
