How Ivanka Trump Blew Up Her Image

Vanity Fair has an interesting essay from Lysandra Ohrstrom, former best friend of Ivanka Trump:

“It was easy to ignore the dozens of press inquiries that flooded my inbox when Donald Trump announced his candidacy because I didn’t think he had any chance of winning. Then, when Ivanka joined her dad’s administration, I was sure she would step in to moderate her father’s most regressive, racist tendencies—not out of any moral commitment, but because caging young children and ripping up global climate agreements was not a good look in the halls of Davos.”

“The Ivanka I knew spent her career developing and embodying a more polished and intellectual offshoot of the Trump brand, which blended the language and look of white millennial feminism with the mythical narrative of the business acumen and entrepreneurial spirit she claimed to have inherited from her dad.”

“Instead, I’ve watched as Ivanka has laid waste to the image she worked so hard to build.”
