Ivanka Trump Reveals Her Role For Dad During His Second Term
HuffPost
Donald Trump's daughter talked about politics being a "very dark, negative business."
Ivanka Trump said she isn’t planning on returning to work in the second administration of her father, President-elect Donald Trump. The Trump scion will instead be there for him in a supportive role, she revealed in the latest episode of “The Skinny Confidential Him & Her” podcast.
“I hate politics,” Donald Trump’s daughter declared to hosts Lauryn and Michael Bosstick, explaining that she does “love policy and impact” but politics is “not separable” from them and there’s “a darkness to that world that I don’t really want to welcome into mine.”
“To a degree, I’m at the center of the storm because my father is about to be president,” she acknowledged. “But it’s a very dark, negative business and some people love the gladiator aspect of it, the fight. That was never me.”
Ivanka Trump and her husband Jared Kushner served as unpaid White House advisers during Donald Trump’s first term, a period in which they reportedly raked in hundreds of millions of dollars in outside income.
The couple kept a relatively low profile during Trump Sr.’s 2024 campaign, only breaking cover towards the end.
