The 'Thirsty Ivanka Trump' meme stems from a series of photographs taken during official diplomatic meetings, most notably a 2017 roundtable discussion with Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau. The photos captured Ivanka Trump looking at Trudeau with an expression many internet users interpreted as one of intense admiration or 'thirst.' Since then, the image has been widely used as a relatable reaction template to represent someone being completely distracted by something they find highly attractive or desirable. It serves as a humorous way to illustrate infatuation, whether directed at a person, an object, or a concept.
