    Post Is Donald Trump grooming Ivanka to become the first female president?

    PowerWomenTV founder and CEO Amy Palmer has spent years interviewing some of the world’s most influential women, and she believes President-elect Donald Trump is grooming his daughter Ivanka for a future run, possibly to become America’s first female president.

    In a Salon Talks interview yesterday, Palmer and I discussed how Ivanka might address questions around conflict-of-interest with her personal brand and whether she was under an unfair double standard relative to her friend Chelsea Clinton.

    Ivanka plans to move to Washington, D.C., with her husband Jared Kushner, who was just named as a senior adviser to President-elect Trump.

    Mike Allen, my former Politico colleague who has since moved on to launch the new media company Axios, reported yesterday about Ivanka’s early strategy:

    Following her decision not to take a formal White House role, Ivanka Trump plans to stay out of the spotlight for a few months as her family moves to D.C., hoping the temperature goes down on nepotism questions involving her husband, Jared Kushner. But then she’ll begin taking high-profile stands on policies aimed at women’s entrepreneurship and economic empowerment. A well-wired source tells me her focus will be consistent with her brand: issues affecting women who work, including family leave and equal pay.

    Behind the scenes, Ivanka is moving to put a high-powered, high-level staffer inside the White House to help her cause. My sources tell me her first and likely choice is Goldman Sachs exec Dina Powell, who runs the firm’s 10,000 Women and 10,000 Small Businesses, and was in charge of presidential personnel for George W. Bush.

    It would through the identity game for a loop and likely suddenly the pious Feminists would become very liberal with misogyny.

    On MMO-C we learn that Anti-Fascism is locking arms with corporations, the State Department and agreeing with the CIA, But opposing the CIA and corporate America, and thinking Jews have a right to buy land and can expect tenants to pay rent THAT is ultra-Fash Nazism.

    I think America is done with legacies, I don't know enough about her to form an opinion but the shadow of Trump is not one you escape from unscathed.

    Right now it's looking like Chump will be the worst thing to hit North America since Small Pox. If anything we'll never see that name in public light again (hopefully). It'll be more rejected than Bush.

    She is the better Trump. In every way.

    Is Ivanka smart and can she handler herself in business and politics. I will give her benefit of the doubt and say she is capable. Once again, she has gotten to where she is because of nepotism. We will see how much nepotism creeps in the 4 years. We know how much The Donald loves him some Ivanka.

    I think this last election showed that the US is done with families dominating the presidency. Jeb was rejected as was Clinton.

    It remains to be seen if the national experiment of electing someone with no experience in politics is a success. That will, more than anything, tell what potential she would have as being president.

    Actually it would be a great idea, she's got smarts, looks, temper.
    Of course her political future depends mainly upon how her father does his job.

    Following her decision not to take a formal White House role

    This wasn't a decision, it was an inevitability. It's contentious enough that Trump would like her husband to serve in an advisory role due to our laws against nepotism (though their applicability to the White House is itself a matter of legal disagreement). Having an actual biological relative in such a role would simply be untenable; hence why the in-law gets to play at being political.

    If Ivanka has her eyes on the White House, I doubt she's using Daddy anymore than she has to. He certainly won the election, but his approval ratings are already laughably low and his every attempt at being political has been a relative disaster. Maybe Daddy Trump can finance her campaign.

    She wouldn't win, the baby boomer safety net will be gone for she could make an honest bid for the White House and I doubt Millennials would go anywhere near another Trump.

    She'd also have a hard time winning Conservatives over past her name. She is a Moderate at best.

    If she wants a shot she needs to separate herself as far from the Trump name as possible.

    How smart can you actually be about most of the issues of the country if all of the issues you have ever experienced have been rich issues?

    As long as we have the monetary classes that we do then I would rather see someone be the president who was born into the poor class and worked their way up the monetary classes (after serving in the military since they will be Commander in Chief) to the rich class (a service profession preferably, such as a doctor or lawyer) eventually due to being intelligent and remains kind once rich.

    Anyone else, I feel, would never be an actual representation of either our people or the American Dream or able to understand our people as much as possible.

    'We'll nominate a woman, that'll throw em' for a loop' is also identity politics. If you truly think identity politics is wrong, then consider ignoring identity and focusing on qualifications instead of playing identity politics as well.

    I would take Ivanka and her husband over Trump any day of the week. Her husband is actually pretty damn smart it seems.
