To hear Ivanka Trump tell it at the Republican National Convention in Cleveland on Thursday night, her father, Donald Trump, is a model feminist when it comes to women in the workplace.

“Ivanka Trump’s sophisticated sheath dress works wonders at both social and professional occasions with sleek studwork and a fabulous fit”, the store’s website said describing the dress, which quickly sold out.
Fans loved the photo because Trump ditched her glitz and glam that she showed off during the convention and, instead, showed off a more down-at-home, makeup-free look. Rather than ask Americans to trust her, she implored them to rally against Trump, who she cast as unsafe and unfit to lead the country. “He recognizes real knowledge and skill when he finds it”.
Just before her father received the nomination on the convention’s second day, Trump took some time backstage to check in on her three young children on FaceTime, holding on to her white Hopewell satchel from her collection. “As president, my father will change the labor laws … child care [will be] affordable and accessible for all”. As a working mom, she may understand the importance of equal pay and child care, but it’s clear that her father certainly does not. The Boston Globe found that the Trump campaign pays men on its staff one-third more than it pays women.
Ivanka Trump again tried to reach out to millennials by talking about student debt, aguing that her father “can’t bear the injustice of college graduates who are crippled by student debt”.
She told supporters in a West Philadelphia arena the coming election is the most important one in her lifetime. “It creates an unbelievable blueprint for family connectivity”, she said, because their religion limits them from taking work during the weekends, so they have more time together as a family.
She also talked about how Trump would help families. “But I share my viewpoints with him privately, not publicly”.
Ivanka’s RNC style has been earning high marks throughout the RNC and she has become a walking billboard for her clothing line.
“As researchers have noted, gender is no longer the factor creating the greatest wage discrepancy in this country, motherhood is”, she said.
Labaton says Ivanka’s speech last night was a strategic move bu Trump to attract the women’s vote. “She could easily have a roll on her father’s cabinet or seek an elected position”, the source revealed.
Her ensemble was “modern, feminine and handsome”, said Peter Marx, president of the Washington, D.C. -area luxury women’s fashion shop Saks Jandel.
