Ivanka Trump Criticizes Attacks Against President Trump

In the interview with the Fox and Friends morning TV show, Ivanka Trump has criticized “the level of viciousness” her father has been subjected to.

President Trump’s daughter said that it went far beyond what she was expecting.

Ivanka Trump said that she had been left blindsided by the ferocity of some of the attacks leveled against the president.

President Trump is under intense scrutiny in the US, including over the Russia investigations and his business ties.

His daughter said that she felt “very vindicated” by James Comey’s recent Senate testimony, in which the former FBI director spoke about the probe into alleged links between the Trump election campaign and Moscow.

Ivanka Trump said his evidence supported her father’s insistence that he was not being personally investigated, and that James Comey had on at least one occasion supplied a leak to The New York Times.

She said that while she was “not expecting the intensity of this experience”, she realized that the business of government “isn’t supposed to be easy”.

“My father and this administration intends to be transformative, and we want to do big, bold things,” Ivanka Trump said.

“With all the noise, with all the intensity of the media coverage… ultimately, we’re really focused on why the American people elected Donald Trump as their president.”

Last week, President Trump’s son Eric told Fox News that he had “never seen hatred like this” and “morals have flown out the window”.

“They’re not even people,” he said as he described his father’s critics.

Ivanka Trump, like her husband Jared Kushner, is a special adviser to the president.

Fox News described her as “a political novice like her dad”, who had “glided past the more controversial interview topics like a seasoned vet”.

The Washington Post described it as a “largely friendly” interview, and noted that Ivanka Trump avoided answering two big questions about James Comey’s evidence and the work of her husband, “masterfully pivoting from an unfavorable subject to a better one”.

The New York Times also noted that Ivanka Trump dodged questions as to whether Jared Kushner had quarreled with other senior members of her father’s team.
