Ivanka Trump might leave White House if father wins 2020

Source: The Hill



President Trump's adviser and daughter Ivanka Trump signaled in a new interview that she could leave the White House if her father is reelected in 2020.

Asked in a CBS interview whether she would remain in the administration if her father wins the election, Trump said she is "driven first and foremost by my kids and their happiness."

"My decisions will always be flexible enough to ensure that their needs are being considered first and foremost," she said. "So they will really drive that answer for me.

"I think for me, I came down here — it's about the impact," she continued. "It's about being able to deliver for the forgotten men and women that I met over the course of two years as I campaigned around this country. And over the last two and a half years as I've traveled to almost every state in this nation. It's about providing pathways to opportunity."

ST. Ivanka has made more than enough money for over a lifetime while her father has been in the WH. She's even selling caskets. Forgotten men and women indeed.

After the international ridicule she deservedly got for playing "Hey gang! Isn't my daddy doing an awesome job as President?" to a group of career diplomats, she may finally have realized she's out of her depth.

Also, "Do you think it is right that you got $100 million, yet a committee investigating gun violence only got $25 million?" Airhead Ivanka with the plastic face.

can only work with what he has presented to him. He obviously can not work miracles. She was homely before, and now she is not much better looking as far as I can see. When she wears her hair in a tiny bun at the back of her head, I immediately think of Olive Oyl. Her face is all out of whack.

For the purpose of a) making contact with high-powered politicos, b) getting an inside look at a family that made the journey to the White House, and perhaps even c) hopes of learning any ‘dirt’ that could be useful in the future. And yes, now that we’ve had a close-up look at the Trump family in action, I do believe even a young Ivanka was capable of being that calculating and self-serving.

Ivanka and her husband are the de facto president. And she’s trying to parlay that into becoming the first elected woman president. There are only two ways Ivanka leaves the White House before 2025: if her father gets voted out next year, or if she needs to go on the run from the authorities.

He still has to:
• bring peace to the Middle East,
• eliminate corruption in Ukraine,
• disarm North Korea’s nuclear arsenal,
• end the opioid epidemic, and
• complete Iskanka’s pre-campaign groundwork for her to win the presidency in 2024. (Sorry, Junior).

https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/ivanka-trump-used-a-personal-email-account-to-send-hundreds-of-emails-about-government-business-last-year/2018/11/19/6515d1e0-e7a1-11e8-a939-9469f1166f9d_story.html

The couple’s emails are prescreened by the Trump Organization for security problems such as viruses but are stored by Microsoft, the people said.

Trump used her personal account to discuss government policies and official business fewer than 100 times — often replying to other administration officials who contacted her through her private email, according to people familiar with the review.

Another category of less-substantive emails may have also violated the records law: hundreds of messages related to her official work schedule and travel details that she sent herself and personal assistants who cared for her children and house, they said.

People close to Ivanka Trump said she never intended to use her private email to shroud her government work. After she told White House lawyers she was unaware that she was breaking any email rules, they discovered that she had not been receiving White House updates and reminders to all staffers about prohibited use of private email, according to people familiar with the situation.

No one cares what you do. You may be daddy’s little princess - but the rest of the world couldn’t give a shit about your pretend jobs and your meaningless opinions. The only thing you will ever be known for is paying the Chinese government to have political prisoners make your overpriced cute little shoes.

Her kids are first and foremost, blah, blah, blah. Yeah, that's why she's gallivanting all over the world on our dime doing nothing, except maybe stashing money in the Caymans and making goo-goo eyes at Trudeau.

She is just plain sickening as far as I'm concerned.

Congratulations, fuckers.

Their stupid dodge ("not getting paid&quot for clear violation of the law is so brazen one can hardly believe that she and Jared Kushner have been permitted to continue.

Yet another failure of the GOP Senate to fail to uphold black letter law on nepotistic appointments.
