But if one really wanted to catch Ivanka pushing an agenda, one need only have paid attention to how she framed Trumps accomplishments. Trump had help, doncha know?

Ivanka Trump: (11:46)
Four years ago I told you my father would focus on making child care affordable and accessible. In President Trumps first term, we secured the largest ever increase for child care funding, giving more than 800,000 low income families great child care at a cost they can afford. As part of Republican tax cuts in 2019 alone, our child tax credit put over $2,000.00 into the pockets of 40 million American families.
Ivanka Trump: (12:20)
Democrat politicians recently introduced a plan to increase the child tax credit, yet when I was fighting less than three years ago at the presidents direction to get Congress to double the child tax credit, not a single Democrat voted to pass the law. We got it done anyway.
Ivanka Trump: (12:42)
Four years ago I promised that President Trump would support mothers in the workforce. In his first year in office, he signed into law the first ever national paid leave tax credit. Today, eight million more Americans have access to this benefit.
Ivanka Trump: (13:03)
Four years ago I said that Americans needed an economy that permits people to rise again. During President Trumps first three years in office, 72% of all new jobs went to Americans who had been outside of the workforce.
Ivanka Trump: (13:22)
Four years ago I told you I would fight alongside my father and four years later, here I am.

Ivanka Trump: (14:31)
This spring, our president saw that American crops were going to waste because food supply chains were disrupted by the virus. He directed Secretary Perdue and me to find a way to get this nutritious food, fresh fruit, vegetables, meat and dairy, to families most in need. Within a matter of days, we launched the Farmers to Family Food Box Program, which has now delivered over 100 million meals into the hands of American families.
Ivanka Trump: (15:05)
To protect the most vulnerable among us, Ive worked alongside the president as he signed into law nine pieces of legislation to combat the evil of human trafficking.
Ivanka Trump: (15:24)
Ive stood by my fathers side at Dover Air Force Base as he has received our fallen heroes and each time it has steeled his resolve to finally stop, finally stop, the endless foreign wars.

(5,401 posts)She certainly thinks so.
In reality, serving up hash browns in a run down diner in the worst neighborhood is more her most appropriate place in the scheme of things.
Could result in some harsh words between the boys, the wife and the daughter when the old man croaks it though. 8-)

(27,815 posts)... however she wants. It is irrelevant.
Investigations into the Trump family are already underway, and will escalate after Biden is inaugurated.
I doubt that any Trump family member will be a viable candidate for anything once the smoke clears.

ETA: Mary Biden just said that Ivankas lies are every bit as vicious (good word) as her fathers despite the soft breathy voice

(16,887 posts)And as Mary Trump summarized when asked her opinion by Rachel Maddow to describe the relationship between Trump and Ivanka....first she swallowed and paused and hesitated...(I believe she has many thoughts)...but she simply summarized it in one word:
Co-Presidenting
There is no doubt in my mind this is true and the American Grifters who are trying to set themselves up like an American Autocratic Dynasty a la Romanovs with a touch of Putin, have Ivanka as the successor to her Father in EVERYTHING.
After reading Mary Trumps book and the psychological profiling of the Trump family and its sociopathic/psychopathic dysfunctional structure where you are either the victim or the victimizer, Fred Trump terrorized the family and her father was a victim. Donald was then the chosen successor and became a Victimizer. (Another sadistic one at that). The Traitor In Chief chose Ivanka to be his successor. And she is just a more polished version of the sadistic monster and plans to be his successor. And I have no doubt the plans have already been discussed of ho it will happen.

(63,221 posts)I doubt that a word of it is true. She's just like her father. She will say anything to get what she wants.
