Her father isn't making it any easier!
Ivanka Trump sat down with Fox & Friends this morning to give a rare interview about her life inside the White House, and the POTUS' daughter made it pretty clear she's still adjusting to the criticism of her life in the political spotlight.
"It is hard. And there is a level of viciousness that I was not expecting. I was not expecting the intensity of this experience, but this isn't supposed to be easy. My father's administration intends to be transformative, and we want to do big, bold things. We're looking to change the status quo. So, I didn't expect it to be easy. I think some of the distractions and some of the ferocity I was a little blind-sided by on a personal level," she confessed.
"I'm trying to keep my head down, not listen to the noise and just work really hard to make a positive impact in the lives of many people. I mean, if you want to at the end of the day if you want to think about difficult, it's the factory worker who has been laid off. Difficult is, you know, the mother who has lost a child to opioid abuse," she added.
She also took the time to rave about her husband Jared Kushner, who "was instrumental in organizing and planning" the Commander-in-Chief's first overseas visit.
"It was wildly successful. Saudi Arabia alone, if you think about the historic nature of gathering 54 Muslim and Arab leaders to talk about the goal of eradicating terrorism. Collective effort. It was amazing the leadership that my father showed, the way he was able to foster really dialogue," she boasted.
"You know, aside from what he is doing on the foreign policy front,there are the various initiatives he is focused on at home, really thinking about modernizing and innovating within government. And it just shows, you know, there is a real focus on getting things done. And getting big things done," she continued.
Is it just us, or does she seem slightly robotic? We bet she's making sure every word and detail is perfect so she doesn't get torn to shreds!
