A New York man says he and his husband were removed from a JetBlue flight after his husband "expressed displeasure" about flying with Ivanka Trump and her husband, Jared Kushner.
Matthew Lasner said on Twitter that JetBlue staff kicked him and his husband off the flight from New York's Kennedy airport to Florida on Thursday after overhearing his husband's remarks.
The Twitter account @mattlasner sent out two tweets Thursday morning. The first said, "Ivanka and Jared at JFK T5, flying commercial. My husband chasing them down to harass them. #banalityofevil"
The second included a picture of Ivanka (seen above) and read, "Ivanka just before @JetBlue kicked us off our flight when a flt attendant overhead (sic) my husband expressing displeasure about flying w/ Trumps."
The Twitter user has since deleted his Twitter account.
In a statement, JetBlue says the removed passengers were placed on the next available flight.
"The decision to remove a customer from a flight is not taken lightly. If the crew determines that a customer is causing conflict on the aircraft, the customer will be asked to deplane, especially if the crew feels the situation runs the risk of escalation during flight," JetBlue's statement read, in part.
A spokeswoman for the Trump family declined comment but did not dispute the accounts.
