Ivanka says kids hurt by her dad's family separations 'not part of my portfolio'

Ivanka Trump has repeatedly sidestepped her connection to her father's unpopular actions.

In an interview on Sunday's "Face The Nation," Ivanka Trump told host Margaret Brennan that she would not comment on her father's policy of separating migrant children from their families because "immigration is not part of my portfolio."

"Obviously, I think everyone should be engaged, and the full force of the U.S. government is committed to this effort of border security, to protecting the most vulnerable. That includes those being trafficked across our border," she added, avoiding comment on one of the most controversial and damaging policies of the administration, in which she serves as a "senior adviser" to her dad.

Ivanka Trump has consistently tried to avoid getting entangled with the policy despite its centrality to the Trump administration's approach to immigration.

Last year, as stories circulated of her alleged behind-the-scenes comments that the policy looked bad, she declined to use her massive social media reach — at least 18.5 million followers — or her media platform to speak out against the policy.

to regain the female vote. trump believes she is the smartest of all his kids. I don't think this is going to work out as well as he thinks.

take your "portfolio", fold it five ways, and stick it where the sun don't shine.

This is how they train business drones to talk nowadays. Corporations are only interested in passing the buck so this is how they speak.

I'm sorry, but Margaret Brennan is awful at her job and makes Chuck Todd look like Edward R Murrow. She tossed softballs and never pushed back against anything Mrs Kushner said. Ivanka is in over her head and she found an equally qualified host

where a guy was making predictions that the Republican ticket would be a Trump-Trump one, as in Don-Ivanka.

Many of Ivanka's Daddy's followers would happily put her own Jewish kids in cages behind barbed wire.

Their portfolio is not as limited as hers.

KKK Conservative boasting:

“We killed six million Jews the last time,” he answered. “Eleven million is nothing.”

Sometimes they don’t even bother to use journalists. They just use one of her staff and pretend it’s an interview with a journalist.
