Ivanka Trump takes father’s seat at G-20 leaders’ table in break from diplomatic protocol

Ivanka Trump was deputized to fill in for her father at a table of world leaders at the Group of 20 summit on Saturday, reigniting questions about the un­or­tho­dox mixing of family and government in President Trump’s White House.

The moment, captured in a pixelated photo by a member of Russia’s delegation, seemed to perfectly capture the scope of the first daughter’s expansive influence in Trump’s administration.

thanks for sharing. Following and liked pls follow back.

You do realize the conference that she sat in on was for women entrepreneurs around the world.

Whichever way you look at it, you can't fully detach yourself from family because you are a public officer. We may be worried because America is a leading democracy. This may be a bad example for leaders with nepotic tendencies.
