When Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau visited the White House on Monday for the first time since President Trump's inauguration, Ivanka Trump sat in on a women's business initiative discussion.

Businesswoman Ivanka Trump has been an outspoken advocate of women in the workplace, and posted an image from the White House after attending the meeting with her father and Trudeau.

"A great discussion with two world leaders about the importance of women having a seat at the table!" the Trump daughter tweeted with the picture.

Some objected to the picture, saying Ivanka Trump was using the Oval Office as a "prop."

Civilians have sat at the Oval Office desk before, though, and others were quick to back up the first family member.

President Trump and his administration stepped in last week when Nordstrom decided to drop Ivanka Trump's fashion line -- prompting an ethical dilemma after White House senior adviser Kellyanne Conway promoted the brand during a TV interview.

At least she isn’t trying to peddle nasty school lunches to public school students.

Where was the “media firestorm” when Lewinsky was kneeling under the desk? Hmmmmm?

Ivanka, don’t ever make the mistake of thinking any of these people will be happy or nice to you.

This is awful. It is much worse than President Obama taking AF1 for a Sunday morning joyride with “friends” so they can take pictures of the Statue of Liberty from a height that could simulate a terrorist attack.

Trump sharing an ice cream cone with his grandchildren causes firestorm on social media.

Oh, my! Oh, my! We did something the left objected to.

Trump should really resign now. This is the final straw.

Women constantly harp on women getting a seat at the table.

One does and all hell breaks loose, and women are as willing to criticize as men.

The thought should be, “Wow, maybe she’ll sit there one day as the President.” (Something I might not be too comfortable with)

The folks dumping on her are those who might actually agree with her views.

Alas, she’s daughter of “the great Satan” to them, so trash away...

Ivanka at the desk is classy.

This is not classy:

Beats the heck out of using it like a curtained booth in a smut shop.

Maybe they'd like it if she put her feet up on the desk.
