Ivanka Trump, first daughter and a senior adviser to the president, said Monday on Fox News that she tries to “stay out of politics.” Trump, who has an office in the West Wing and security clearance, said: “He did something that no one could have imagined he’d be able to accomplish. I feel blessed just being part of the ride from day one and before. But he did something pretty remarkable. But I don’t profess to be a political savant.” Trump also acknowledged that she has political disagreements with her father. “We’re two different human beings. I think it’s normal to not have 100 percent aligned viewpoints on every issue,” she said. “I don’t think anyone operates like that with a parent, or within the context of an administration, and I think that all different viewpoints being at the table is a positive thing. And I think one of the things that, in this country, we don’t have enough of is dialogue.”
