Ivanka Trump is reportedly considering the possibility of returning to the White House if her father, Donald Trump, wins the presidency in November. According to a report by Tara Palmeri of Puck, a source familiar with the matter indicated that Ivanka, who served as an advisor during her father’s first administration, is now “warming to the idea of trying to be helpful” again. The source noted that she’s “privately not ruling out having some sort of role.”
“She’s not like ‘Hell no’ anymore,” the source stated.
Ivanka Trump had previously announced in 2022 that she was stepping away from politics, despite her father’s ongoing presidential campaign. At the time, she cited her desire to focus on her young children and her family’s private life. “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.
Her husband, Jared Kushner, who also served as a senior advisor in Trump’s administration and played a key role in negotiating the Abraham Accords, has similarly distanced himself from politics. After leaving the White House, Kushner launched an investment firm that secured significant investments from Saudi Arabia’s sovereign wealth fund, as well as additional funding from Qatar and the United Arab Emirates. The source suggested that Kushner is less enthusiastic than Ivanka about a return to D.C. politics.
Palmeri’s report mentioned that Ivanka Trump has been advised to wait until the GOP convention this summer before making a full commitment to rejoining her father’s political team.
