Ivanka Trump: I Try To Stay Out Of Politics [VIDEO]

The Week reports:



White House employee Ivanka Trump apparently has a rather curious understanding of what it means to be a senior adviser to the president. On Monday, she informed Fox & Friends that despite having an office in the West Wing, “I try to stay out of politics.”

Trump went on to say: “I instead like to focus on areas where I can add positive value, where I can contribute to the agenda. Policies around workforce development, about ensuring that barriers are removed for the American working family … focusing on how we can help our veterans and how we can really deliver them the care that they so need.”

But “I don’t profess to be a political savant,” Trump attempted to clarify. “So I leave the politics to other people and really lean into the issues that I care deeply about.”
