Ivanka Trump Doesn’t Know Her Place. Hint: It’s Not The President’s Chair (feminists going bezerko!)

But when the cameras are rolling and you’re a 35-year-old woman who should know how much symbols matter it leaves all kinds of uncomfortable questions: What is Ivanka Trump up to, anyway? What is her strange, as-yet-undefined mission in the White House? And, if it’s not too much to ask, where is her stepmother and what has she done with her?

No one envies Melania having to fill Michelle Obama’s shoes — at least some of her reticence is justified. , Michelle Obama set a high watermark in so many areas: mother, wife, style icon, role model to women around the world. She graced the cover of Vogue magazine an unprecedented three times.

Unless Mrs. Trump is personally making hot chocolate for Barron and his friends after school, or is helping him conjugate verbs for his French test, she needs to suit up, face the NYC-D.C. commute, and get in the game.

It only contributes to the worrisome atmosphere of an unstable presidency to have a First Lady who is MIA and a First Daughter — not an actual title, by the way — with an ambiguous but clearly ambitious agenda. As long as the White House continues to explore this strange arrangement without defining it, and without supporting either of these women with the staff required to prevent them from making amateurish gaffes, the world will continue to scrutinize their every move.

It remains to be seen if Ivanka Trump can be a strong presence in her father’s administration — strong in her own right, apart from playing dress-up when world leaders come to call. She has been a brand promoter for so long the transition to public service is bound to be a challenge. Step No. 1 may be getting out of her stepmother’s way.

2 Chron 7:14

14 If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.

KJV

 

Hmm, how does following Ivanka's LGBT "advice" fit into that context?
