Reportedly Ivanka Trump, traveling with her father in Asia, sought to play the role of a sort of shadow secretary of state. Meanwhile she attended a series of bilateral meetings between the US and foreign powers at the G20 and she was part of the photo-op following the President's 20 steps into North korea with dictator Kim Jong Un.
Furthermore she tried to edge into a conversation with Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, French President Emmanuel Macron, IMF chairwoman Christine Lagarde and British Prime Minister Theresa May on the sidelines of the G20. Apparently she's done a fantastic job, and also a fantastic job in getting jobs for a lot of people within our country almost 10 million people," Trump told the media during a news conference over the weekend in Osaka, japan.
Furthermore Trump runs the country like a family business treating those related to him differently than everyone else. The problem among a series of issues with a setup like this is that we are NOT talking about a family business, we are talking about the united states government and, in the case of Don Jr., the campaign to reelect (or not) the President in 17 months' time. Perhaps allowing Ivanka and Don Jr. (and Kushner) to be free radicals of sorts in the chemistry of government is a dangerous experiment.
