I'd consider myself cynical, but I can still read body language and tone of voice. Either she's an amazing actor, or what she is saying is genuine. It's obvious that she's choosing her words quite carefully, but she's not lying. When you've always been an heiress to a billion dollar empire, I doubt money matters all that much to you. Plus, she has her own successful business, income and personal wealth. She doesn't need daddy's money. I think you're being overly-cynical here.
SUBTLE VISUALISATIONS Success boosts your self confidence. Money happens to often be a consequence of success. Anybody can start a business, but having a successful business is another thing. Having a rich dad wont make your business a success. It either makes profit or it doesn't. It either makes enough profit or it doesn't. Daddy's money wont raise your sales revenue. You need customers for that. So what if Ivanka grew up with money? She didn't choose her parents any more than anybody else did. What is she supposed to do? Give up on life and kill her self because she was born to rich parents? She's a success in her own right. She worked hard at school and she's worked hard for her dad's company and in making her own business. Are you saying that if you were born to billionaire parents, you wouldn't try to be successful yourself? What would you do in life? Ivanka is clearly an accomplished woman. So what if she started off rich? What's wrong with wealth? Would you prefer everybody was poor?
SUBTLE VISUALISATIONS We all have advantages and disadvantages in life. You should leverage what advantages you have. I don't see your problem here. As I said, imagine you were born to billionaire parents. What would you do in life? Ivanka didn't chose her parents. She's made the best of her situation, like anybody should. There's no shame in trying to be successful in life, regardless of who your parents are.
SUBTLE VISUALISATIONS No person chooses who their parents are. Fact. What do you suggest Ivanka and people like her do when they are born to rich parents? I don't blame anybody for who they are born to. I don't blame anybody for making the best of their circumstances. You haven't answered me. What would *you* do if you were born to rich parents?
SUBTLE VISUALISATIONS I used to think like you. Then I realised that nobody chooses their parents and that money alone will not lead to success. There are plenty of people who've lost a fortune because they didn't have what it takes to keep it and make more. Plenty of rich people who got into drugs and screwed up their lives or killed themselves through depression. In my opinion, you ought not to focus on other people being rich and focus more on working towards getting rich yourself. I'm not saying Invanka has had zero benefit from being her father's daughter. I'm just not prepared to put all of her success in life down to it, like you are. As I've said many times to you: What would you do if you had been born to rich parents like Ivanka was? She's simply made the best of things like the rest of us should. Good on her.
Wow! The way she talks about trump doesn't sound AT ALL/NOTHING like how he is portraying himself to the media...sad we can't see him like you do ivanka...
I could listen to her speak all day. Her voice is soft, but she is very poised, professional, and eloquent. I think she will be an incredible role model.
She's definitely been well trained in eloquence and communication. She's a very persuasive speaker, and really good at dodging a question too. One would have to be careful what they agree to when she is trying to be convincing. She would be a great manipulator, too, I'm sure.
The trump family on its own is fine, but Donald Trump is rather unfit for the politics. Business way, though, Donald is a really really really good businessman
I'm not a fan of the Trumps but Ivanka is definitely the most likeable. Amazingly well-spoken and not insulting people left and right. If Donald Trump took an example from her he wouldn't have been shredded by the media like he is now for his controversial statements.
Trump purposely used controversy to fuel his movement and get over 2 billion dollars in free coverage, he played them at every turn. Trump is a fairly intelligent man who has been in the public spotlight for 30 years and has used controversy in the past to fuel business and launch him forth, he knows the game better than anyone in the media because he's played it longer than some have been alive. This isn't to say he was fake in his statements, his key issues are something he has talked about since the 80's, he exaggerates and he purposely makes some outlandish statements to get the media to explode over him while never going into something truly damaging to his movement. A great example of his manipulation of the media is when he announced a speech about the birther movement, Trump then just gave a massive show of 20 minutes of veterans endorsing him followed with a 2-minute statement on how Hillary started it back when she campaigned against Obama for the nomination and he finished it. At his heart, Trump's brand of comedy is trolling, ESPECIALLY when it comes to the media, he basically got the media to flaunt its bias to the world. Trump didn't get to where he is by being an idiot and Ivanka didn't just magically become intelligent, part of that is her extremely high education but part of that is also Donald Trump.
+John Graham The Slums of Millionaire Parents and Private Boarding Schools?????? Kew-Forest, New York Military Academy, Fordham and Wharton! Are you out of your mind? I'm not talking bad about the President at all. What you said is completely ridiculous. "The son of one of the wealthiest New York businessmen of the era."
Ministry of Christ Well technically Don did come from the slums but his father was the owner of most of the slums. He did make himself out of something comparatively small, I mean there are over 10 million millionaires in the US and only 540 billionaires, so clearly he had to do a lot of things right, but he certainly didn't start from nothing.
Love to see her as a first female president of United state. She is young, classy, bright, beautifuL, intelligent, articulate and Well-spoken. *** IVANKA 2024 ***
So what, jealous much? If you got a loan like that you would be broke already little douche bag troll. Don't hate because she's beautiful and intelligent and you are an Internet loser who has no money, a lousy life and a fat pig wife !!
Slick - Just because it doesn't jive with your opinion, doesn't make him a douche bag troll. Instead of forming an intelligent reply you had to go straight to name calling. I guess the truth hurts huh? Btw, I also agree with Chris. She was primarily raised by her mom. They all were fed with a silver spoon.
Agree with Slick. Repeating my post above: Have you not heard Ivanka speak? She has poise, strength, and intelligence. Why knock her or her father because Invanka also happens to be beautiful? Oh .. right .. you're a Lib or Dem that emphasizes the need to treat women equally .. except those that you want to treat differently.
Ivanka's is incredibly intelligent, but I suspect a highly dangerous woman if you cross her. You can clearly see the deep machinations in that brain of hers when she talks. Everything she says is brilliantly measured and yet she delivers her words with an amazing amount of charm. It's hard to tell who she truly is from these few interviews, but it's clear that she's extremely well trained in portraying herself publicly. People do not sit and talk the way she does without a large amount of practice. Definitely an interesting woman. It's amazing how she's practically a 180 from her father.
+Ania D agreed... and being soft spoken is a great virtue ... not everyone is soft spoken ... even the host can't match up to her ... she is so very well spoken ...
"I don't think Ivanka would do that, although she does have a very nice figure. I've said if Ivanka weren't my daughter, perhaps I'd be dating her." - Our President-elect Trump
Yeah it sounds like she loves her dad too, but It kind of makes me wonder how long she has been having sex with her father. I don't know why her dad is banging porn stars when he is nailing his daughter and she is obviously not going to cost 130,000 to keep quiet.
Luis M that is how liberals are they dont have any brains they have been watching to much fake media and fake bullshit on tv... get of the dam drugs look around that life is getting more dangerous because your liberty and freedom has been sold you and everyone have been lied to there is no democracy there is no freedom there is no faith this is worst then communism itself oh wait it is communism remember jews hiding behind the christian yes zionists are the law in america not you you are a slave for them including all your family including mine if this bitch gets elected i am out of here i will never work and pay tax for these neocons that kill mexicans, blacks, and everyone that has no point of view with them.
loooooooooool you see how liberal are I am russian american the same country that is killing what you call ISIS. and as a russian american that grew up here in america 40 years of fun and good old america has turned into a rich and elite that has nothing to do but wars... 600 thousand children died in iraq, 400 thousand in syria, they have murdered black people in south africa you know who did it yes.... gold old clinton with bush.... I am voting for trump i am teacher and my husband is in the navy so fuck off my husband is in the military to protect assholes like you that dont see the truth about our liberty in america already being sold to the muslims... obama the anti black and mexican is already doing just that... remember if you catholic Clinton dont like you or your religion
Luis M i used to be a democrat until i found the bullshit lie that have been done to our men and women in uniform you just keep closing your eyes to the truth and just want to listen how president bark in the media but do something else behind everyone...
This woman is a walking slap in the face for the VAST majority of western women. Soft spoken (making her pleasant to listen to), healthy figure, feminine clothing and feminine demeanor. the woman is raising 3 children AND is running a multi-billion dollar company at the same time without complaining. I challenge anyone to find another woman capable of doing that in the western world..... a challenge you will likely lose.
Matías Pierdoménico Well we can't all be perfect you know. Also, making that statement even though you are correct, doesn't detract from my statement at all..... so why make that statement?
hectorae86 No, it doesn't. She obviously is an incredible woman. But I say it because this is a big issue in the US. Besides African countries, the US is pretty much the only country in the world where circumcision is common and people don't seem to pay much attention to it. It is the unnecessary cutting of perfectly healthy tissue and it has DEVASTATING life-long effects, so I think it's a really big moral problem, specially considering that you're doing it to an infant who can't consent and suffers EXTREME pain as a result. I was really disappointed when I found out that she did that to her own child.
Thanks to her dad. This is what happens when you come from a history of wealth. Not building yourself, but put into it. Your girlfriend would be the exact way. Every woman would be. If her father was Trump.
King Origin Yes, because unfortunately I don't have a daddy who's a billionaire and can just get me an insanely high-paying job with no prior experience or credentialing whatsoever. I do respect her for managing to remain normal in the face of so much crazy, but she was born with thousands of gold spoons in her mouth. She's insanely privileged, never had to work for anything a day in her a life, and I'll be damned if working hard for my accomplishments is worth more than being born wealthy.
***** Well said Ania. Not everyone born into riches turn out successful, and not everyone born into poverty end up in poverty. It's easy to make make excuses for why you're not successful, just about everyone who's not succeeding is doing it. Most of such people blame their circumstances rather than their own shortcomings.
My family's far from being billionaires but my parents are both physicians and if I didn't want to work a 12-hour day or have goals of my own I probably wouldn't have to, so your statement's irrelevant because I still believe in working hard for what I want in life. Newsflash, Donald went to UPenn as well and there's this thing called legacy (especially for families with lots of $$$) that pretty much guaranteed her in and would have gotten her through all her classes. Maybe I worded this incorrectly - I'm not saying she doesn't work hard NOW to support her company and family (however, she has lots and lots of help to do both - she surely isn't doing all of it alone). But the point I was trying to make was that me and Ivanka are not on the same pedestal to compare accomplishments - She was born 1,000 levels above me because of her money and status. So yes, the unfortunate truth is I probably won't reach a fraction of what Ivanka has accomplished, not because I don't work my ass off every single day, but because she was born luckier than I was. She never had to work to reach that initial level of accomplishment. Maybe she has to work to maintain it now, but she didn't have to struggle getting there. Does that make sense?
Sure, coming from an educated family places you in an environment to be successful, and maybe I am being hypocritical. But my parents are immigrants, so I never received the "benefits" of having a well-off family that Ivanka did. No college legacy, I wasn't ever "handed" money (I was still taught I had to work for it because I watched how hard my parents worked), I wasn't handed a family business, etc. I understand what you're saying, but again refer to my earlier comment. She does have to work to maintain her businesses now, but she receives a lot of help doing so (AKA she didn't build it from the ground up) and she never really had to struggle with the start up, which is often one of the most difficult parts. Again, I do respect her as a person, it's hard to be this normal and put-together in the family she comes from. But I don't necessarily believe her accomplishments say as much about her as they do somebody who started a business from the ground up. That's the only point I was trying to make, and then the conversation strayed off-topic.
everything about her seems so perfect. the way she looks, the way she speaks and what she says, the way she smiles, even her gestures and face expressions. it all seems so perfect i just don't buy it.
She's a sad pathetic person who isn't in reality! The Trump's are nothing but sick disgusting people who live off of other people's money.They all should be in jail.
This is the child of a narcissist, she has to be perfect to make him feel better. Trust me this woman is so well trained to make her father feel good. I feel sorry for her!
That is exactly right. Living with a narcissist is so shitty that literally nothing in the world else scares you as much, to the point that you're numb. This isn't class, it's training from hell.
They all work for him so they have no choice but to toe his line. If they were against him they would lose all privileges (& office space in Trump Tower).
Ditto. The point though is that, even if you're not perfect enough for the narcissist, you're doing better than most people ever have to aspire to. His inheritance is far less than what you're worth.
I agree. She was raised by her mother. He (Donald) had very little to do with her upbringing. He supplied the money. Ivanna deserves any credit for their good qualities. Unfortunately they all show signs of entitlement and narcissism that seems to come with the Trump name.
i think the trump kids complied, like almost every kid that has been raised by a father like trump. I mean, he is a mental case. She had this father from the beginning and wouldn't know what it is to have a mentally sane dad. She has to defend him, she has to portray him as a loving, accessible father. Does anyone really think that a man like this does know what intelligent parenthood is? he's a total creep! i read it somewhere here, someone said it: he is a sociopath.
How do those two things go together? Why was it even worth mentioning. Who the fuck cares what his daughter looks like, he wants to run the country. Have some perspective!!!!!
-- LOL! You're too smart, independent-thinking, feminist, and just plain common-sensed to be watching this vid; watching CNN...and voting in the next election!
Rory Calhoun What makes you say that? I'm not a supporter of Trump but you shouldn't joke, if it is a joke, or assume things about such an important and horrible situation.
Rory Calhoun you are a piece of dog shit. A lefty salty Democrat I'm sure. Support me and my people out whole lives and let me smoke my weed legally Fuckin moron
Wow not only is this woman physically flawless, but she's socially flawless. Never missing a beat, with perfect responses, body language and eye contact. Wow
She seems WAY more intelligent than Donald, and she knows how to answer questions in a way that makes him seem better than he is, but if she thinks that we're going to believe that he isn't a racist, sexist, xenophobic, homophobic, ableist pig, I can't listen to her. "People don't say it very often." Where the hell have you been?
+Satan Jones For someone who doesn't use proper sentence structuring and has two question marks after his comment you seem very observant when it comes to the grammar mistakes of others.
Nicolle Mayol Is there something wrong with us noticing that she happens to be a dime piece? If she were a dumb twat she'd still be a 10/10, but her mind and personality combined with looks easily makes her a 15/10.
Jeez ikr, bunch of horny people on here. When can most men stop viewing women as sexual objects. Just when is that going to end. Yes, she's beautiful, let's leave it at that. Compliments are okay, but keep those inappropriate thoughts to yourself. I get that we are all basically anonymous but still, try to respect women.
How clever this women is. her soft voice doesn't allow interviewers to attach her rudely. she's diverting the main questions to dodge it n answering very cleverly without being rude. Very very smart I'd say.
I remember the RNC. The Republican National Convention. Ivanka's speech was so positive and uplifting. And such a difference from her Dad's speech. Which was so dark, and ominous, and nasty. The media were talking about the difference for a week.
Larry B Firstly no i have not heard of that stereotype. Secondly i will let pass the fact you have judged me solely based on my religion and name (which by the way is extremely offensive and demeaning). It actually kind of shows how narrow minded people like yourself who are trump supporters can be. Thirdly the reason behind what i said in my earlier statement was because Donald on numerous occasions has said that if "Ivank was not his daughter, he would date her." My question to you is why did you feel the need to attack on me through my religion based on a stereotype of countries i have never been to? As I am British.
DISCLAIMER - I am not a Donald Trump supporter **Shudder** I just said I find Ivanka impressive. I have no intention of being associated with dim witted, racists, sexists, uneducated, underprivileged, bitter, gullible and moronic people.
The media is a bunch of liars. Don't believe them, the allegations are all to make money. Michael Jackson had it happen to him by the liberal media, made people sue him over fake allegations, too.
It feels like she's secretely afraid of her father and very carefully watches her words when speaking about him. Or she's very very loyal and doesn't want to admit anything negative about her family.
John Bender really like taking what she said and displaying on TV the Idiot you see speaking in his speeches is the same idiot you see in recordings on CNN you just get to see it a second time on your Tv what is it that's lies what's displayed on the news is what you say and do if you don,t want bad stuff about you on CNN don,t DO it in the first place watch your mouth
Listening to Ivanka speak of her father helps one understand our President as a person. He is a great dad, and that is reflected in all of his children. I am so proud to be a Deplorable and an American. I wish the rest of our country would let him shine!
Yup. When you go after ideals of beauty so hard to look perfect you lose your personality and charm. She has no personality, and I couldn't marry a person so bland. But to each their own I guess! People who think mail order brides are fine must LOVE that she's about as two dimensional as it gets.
she actually looks better after the opens her mouth. she sounds very articulate and friendly. not sure how intelligent she is but she certainly is well spoken
She is rich, elegant, beautiful, healthy, great mother, humble, classy, wonderful wife, and a successful business woman in her 30s. I don't know what you see wrong in her but I see a wonderful daughter who made her parent proud of. You should be judging and doubting girls in this generation who flashed their body on internet and told strangers how many men they have had one night stand with, or said something like hawk tuah and thought it was funny.
She really is well-spoken and nice and seems to be a well-educated smart businesswoman, too. But I wish she's stay away from further teeth whitenings, haha. Her teeths are toooooo white, they don't seem natural at ALL.Ivory colour would be better and natural. Take note from the Duchess of Cambridge, Ivanka!
Most of you say Trump is a racist, horrible person and shouldn't be a president. But wait, take a look at the comment section! Full of judgmental, bullying words that a sociopath would say. You can say that but a president can't? You hate Trump, i can understand but why put the hate on this woman? Look at yourselves before judging anyone!
The fact that she is intellectual, open minded, caring, etc is living proof that the Donald was a great parent. Especially when they lived a billion dollar lifestyle. She understands the value of the dollar. I'm very impressed that CNN actually put this on the tv.
A lot of similarities between what she says about how her father treated her when she was young and what Kai said about how he treats her. Makes me think they're both speaking the truth.
This is obviously a highly intelligent and well spoken woman. Ambitious, dignified, articulate and happens to be a six foot beauty as well...Quite rare!
