| Ivanka Trump presented a softer side of her father and his campaign at the RNC, but some feel it was sugarcoating less progressive policies. Her speech about working mothers left some feeling that she would have been at home at the other camp. | Ivanka Trump presented a softer side of her father and his campaign at the RNC, but some feel it was sugarcoating less progressive policies.

| Ivanka Trump introduced herself as a millennial to the audience at the RNC, saying "I don't consider myself categorically Republican or Democrat." The 34-year-old is technically a member of Generation X, but regardless, her speech was well received by Twitter users who praised the very progressive stance she presented her father’s Republican platform. | Ivanka Trump introduced herself as a millennial to the audience at the RNC, saying "I don't consider myself categorically Republican or Democrat."

| Ivanka Trump’s glowing speech presented her father as a champion of women who seeks to make childcare free for working mothers. In her speech, she called Trump “colorblind and gender neutral.” This was greeted with tepid applause from the audience in stark contrast to her father’s speech that vilified illegal immigrants and was met with roaring applause and chants of, “Build a wall!”She praised her father’s track record of hiring women, saying "At my father's company, there are more female than male executives,” despite a 1997 lawsuit claiming that he sexually harassed a female employee who was contacted by his campaign to retract her statements in May. | |
| Ivanka pledged to join her father in the fight to close the wage gap. She told the audience, "He will fight for equal pay, for equal work and I will fight for this, too, right alongside of him."Like her siblings’ speeches, she painted a picture of a softer Trump saying, “Throughout my entire life, I have witnessed his empathy and generosity towards other, especially those who are suffering. It is just his way of being in your corner when you’re down.” |
