Ivanka Trump says she won’t be part of her father’s campaign

Ivanka Trump, daughter of former president Donald Trump, said she would be stepping away from politics and sitting out her father’s presidential campaign this time round, after he declared his intention to seek another stint in the White House in 2024.

Ivanka, 41, was not present at the Tuesday night event at Trump’s Floridabased Mar-a-Lago Club, where he threw his hat back into the ring.

“I love my father very much,” Ivanka wrote on Instagram. “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 continued. “While I will always love and support my father, going forward I will do so outside the political arena.”

Ivanka added that she was “proud” of the “many” accomplishments from her father’s administration, where she served as a senior White House adviser.

According to a White House biography, she focused on “the education and economic empowerment of women and their families as well as job creation and economic growth through workforce development, skills training and entrepreneurship.”

The daughter of Trump’s first wife, Ivana, who died this year, Ivanka previously oversaw development and acquisitions at the Trump Organization before joining the White House and described herself as an entrepreneur. She graduated from the Wharton School of Business at the University of Pennsylvania in 2004 and has three children with her husband, Jared Kushner.
