Ivanka Trump: ‘I believe my father,’ not his accusers

In an interview with the “Today” show, Ivanka Trump was asked if she believes President Trump’s accusers. She called the question “inappropriate” and said other daughters would not be asked such a question.

“I think it’s a pretty inappropriate question to ask a daughter if she believes the accusers of her father when he’s affirmatively stated there’s no truth to it,” Ivanka Trump said. I don’t think that’s a question you would ask many other daughters.”

“I believe my father. I know my father. I think I have that right as a daughter to believe my father,” she continued.

More than a dozen women have accused President Trump of sexual misconduct before he was elected president. More recently, two women have alleged they had affairs with Trump in the early days of his marriage to Melania Trump.

During her interview with NBC, Ivanka Trump also said she has not been interviewed by special counsel Robert Mueller in the Russia investigation, but she expects he will reach the conclusion that there was no collusion between the Trump campaign and Russia.

“Consistently we’ve said there was no collusion … and we believe that Mueller will do his work and reach that same conclusion,” she said.
