Fashion designer and real estate heiress Ivanka Trump has taken up her father Donald Trump’s torch, opening up about the 2012 presidential race and Barack Obama’s political performance.
In an interview with Harper’s Bazaar, Trump, who posed for the magazine in a bunny suit, says her father would have been just what the country needed, despite his recent announcement that he would not be running.
“I think he's exactly what we need. He's the best equipped to deal with the most important issues this nation has, which is ultimately that we're suffering under a massive burden of debt. We need a very acute financial mind to get us out of this mire.”
"America is the largest corporation on the planet. You wouldn't hire a novice to run a similarly sized company in the private markets," she says.
Trump says that while she wants Obama to succeed now that he is in office, she did not vote for him.
Of course [once he was elected] I wanted him to succeed, but he's proven to be a very ineffective leader. He has just not risen to the occasion. He doesn't have business experience or a business mind."
For now, what’s on Trump’s mind is the impending birth of her daughter with husband Jared Kushner.
"We both said we wanted to wait one year and just enjoy being newlyweds. So we waited pretty much exactly that," Trump says. "Jared is ecstatic," she says. "She'll be a daddy's girl. I have a feeling they are going to gang up on me."
"We have our work cut out for us to ensure that our daughter is grounded and not spoiled."
