[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This sums it up pretty well.  She wants to have all the privileges of being the President's daughter without any of its drawbacks.

[quote]Assistant to the president Ivanka Trump dodged the press like a professional on Sunday when NBC News’ Peter Alexander asked her in a sit-down interview, “Do you believe your father’s accusers?”

Taking a short pause to consider a question she had to know was coming, Trump responded: “I think it’s a pretty inappropriate question to ask a daughter if she believes the accusers of her father when he’s affirmatively stated there’s no truth to it.”

If Ivanka Trump wants to recuse herself from the tough questions, here’s what she should do: Withdraw from the very public political life she has chosen. Reporters hang on what she says because she possesses political power. By resigning her position, by ceasing to advise the president, by ending her official role as the president’s emissary, that power will vanish and so will most of the press corps’ interest. Oh, reporters will still cover her as a rich celebrity and as presidential offspring but as a non-official, she won’t owe reporters any answers. If she still wants to call questions about her father's questionable conduct “inappropriate,” I won't agree with her. But I won’t fuss.
