Ivanka Trump has been trying to distance herself from her father. On Wednesday, she will testify in his fraud trial in New York.
Ivanka Trump, Donald Trump’s eldest daughter, has made every effort to distance herself from her father’s political and financial scandals since he left the White House in 2021.
But on Wednesday, she’ll be dragged back into his drama when she takes the stand to testify in her father’s New York civil fraud trial.
« There’s no way that she walks out of this trial further distanced from the controversies surrounding her father, » Dan Alexander, author of ‘White House, Inc: How Donald Trump Turned the Presidency Into a Business’, told BBC News.
« It’s going to be an uncomfortable place for her, and I don’t think that reputationally, it’s the direction that she wants to go. »
Ivanka Trump was a prominent member of her father’s administration after his shock election in 2016. Before that she was an executive in his company, The Trump Organization, so has long been closely involved in his political and business careers.
The former president appointed her as a White House advisor, with a focus on women in business.
