For Ivanka Trumps entire adult life, she worked for her father.
When Donald Trump was a real estate mogul, she was designing his next hotel. When he was on a reality TV show, she was in his television boardroom. When he was running for office, she was on the campaign trail. When he was president, she had an office in the West Wing.
But in January of 2021, for the first time since she was 23 years old, she left Washington and his employ.
Ivanka Trump is done with politics and says she isnt coming back.
I love my father very much. This time around I am choosing to prioritize my young children and the private life we are creating as a family. I do not plan to be involved in politics, she said in a 2022 social media post after her father announced his third run for the presidency.

And her initiatives to empower women while her orange dad filled the scotus with judges who hate women.

Hey gang! Isnt my daddy doing um like you know just a totally awesome job as President?
(Paraphrased, but pretty close to her actual vacuousness.)
