Ivanka captions Donald & Melania photo: "A wonderful example of kindness and grace for us all."

Ivanka Trump took to Instagram to wish her "incredible stepmom" Melania Trump on her 47th birthday Wednesday. The first lady made a rare mid-week travel to Washington D.C., on her birthday and spent the day with Vice President Mike Pence’s wife, Karen, at a luncheon for Senate spouses at the National Gallery of Art.

"Happy Birthday to our first lady (and my incredible step-mom!) Melania Trump," Ivanka captioned a photo of Melania and President Donald Trump. "A wonderful example of kindness and grace for us all! @FLOTUS."





Ivanka's message for Melania came after Sunday's report on Vanity Fair claiming the two women have a frosty relationship. The report, citing two unnamed sources, said Ivanka and her stepmother have had cold interactions with each other. However, a White House spokesperson dismissed the rumors, telling the Huffington Post Melania and Ivanka have always had a close bond.

Trump's wife received the disapproval of many Americans when it was announced she will live in New York with her son Barron, while Ivanka was often seen working closely with her father. The first daughter also took on a larger role in her father’s campaign than Melania did.

She is an immigrant. What does she know about what America used to be like?

Stupid you know what!

Another Trump illusion of telling people what they should think . . .

When she's 47 and you are 35
& She married your dad when you were an adult

Yeah I get it if Ivanka had been 12 and her dad married a 24 yr old...

But Czarina was 23 when her dad married 35 year old Melania....



Perhaps I have a biased perspective
I never considered my dad's second wife to be my stepmom.... I was 26 when they got married...

Not only complicity, but kindness and grace as well.

Perhaps she needs her father's bigly dictionary.
