And she's the one who is most tightly bound to the trump brand. So, maybe her hubby will be the instigator.

If it they were called, Dirty Deals Inc. they would have a better chance since it is not specific, though Traitor Joe's is not a good one to consider. The brand name is his name and it is getting covered in infamy.

How do you detach Trump from Trump? I think a reordering or restructuring will be their only recourse. Heck, they could just do like the rest of the Oligarchy and form a new parent company, then buy up lots of fronts to mix, match and merge.

Not enough to actually not be a grifting sociopath, but she is shocked people hate her, and that Chelsea Clinton no longer speaks to her. But, she is also the closest to her father, so who knows.

Tiffany will quietly change her surname to Maples. She can't expect to inherit much from her absent father because she is not in the Golden Trio, but she certainly won't live a life of poverty.

nothing like feuding siblings to eventually throw daddy under the bus.

Don Jr. and Ivanka are fighting a bitter "cold war" for prominence in the Trump dynasty: report

Don Jr. allegedly “confronted Ivanka over rumors that her team was undermining him" in conversations with reporters

“Don had long ago come to understand that Ivanka was his father’s favorite,” Coppins explains. “’Daddy’s little girl,’ he liked to joke. But making peace with her husband’s status in the family was harder. Ever since Ivanka had married Jared (Kushner), Don had been made to watch as this effete, soft-spoken interloper cozied up to his dad.”

As Don Jr. became increasingly visible in the GOP, Coppins explains, “the cold war between him and Ivanka intensified. Now that each had their own teams of allies and advisers, they had grown paranoid that the other’s henchmen were planting damaging stories about them in the press.”

In 2018, McClatchy published an article with the headline, “Trump Kids on the Campaign Trail: Don Jr. Wows, Ivanka Disappoints.” Ivanka, according to Coppins, suspected that Don Jr. was behind that article. And one of The Atlantic’s sources alleges that subsequently, Don Jr. “confronted Ivanka over rumors that her team was undermining him in off-the-record conversations with reporters.”

“Tell your people to stop trashing me to the media,” the source alleges that Don Jr. told Ivanka.
