Ivanka Trump surprised by level of viciousness
By Rebecca Savransky - 06/12/17 08:02 AM EDT
Ivanka Trump on Monday said she is surprised by the "level of viciousness" she has seen so far during her father's presidency.
"There is a level of viciousness that I was not expecting," she said during an interview on "Fox & Friends" when asked whether it is harder than she thought to focus on the things she wants to do.
"I was not expecting the intensity of this experience but this isn't supposed to be easy."
Trump said her father and his administration "intends to be transformative."
"And we want to do big, bold things and we're looking to change the status quo," she said.
"So I didn't expect it to be easy. I think some of the distractions and some of the ferocity was, I was a little blindsided by at a personal level."
