A Woman In The Workforce: Ivanka Trump

When the poised young woman walked across the stage at the Quicken Loans Arena in Cleveland to introduce her dad who would be accepting the Republican nomination for President of the United States, there were some after effects. Within hours of her polished and affably delivered speech, Macys.com had sold out of the blush, ‘Sleeveless Studded Sheath Dress’ from the Ivanka Trump Collection for $138 and speaking invitations from Republican groups around the country were pouring in.

She was instantly perceived by politicos as an unparalleled first daughter; one who could legitimately address the issues of working women and mothers in the workforce, business conferences, and audiences from both sides of the aisle. One historian was heard to whisper “there hasn’t been anyone like her since Alice Roosevelt! Only she’s all positive.”
