“Well, I’ve always liked it,” the ex-president replied. “I don’t know that I’ll be doing very much of it politically because I think it’s been unfair to them. Like, Ivanka was great. She could’ve done anything. Great student. Beautiful girl. Beautiful everything. She’s a perfect person. Worked hard.”
Trump noted that his daughter had a fashion line prior to joining the White House.
