Ivanka Trump attends Trump’s Mar-a-Lago election party after insider says she’ll consider return to politics

Former first daughter Ivanka Trump has appeared at her father’s election party at Mar-a-Lago, as insiders reveal she is considering a return to politics.

An unknown source told Page Six that Ivanka would join former President Donald Trump at his private club for the election results, and another source later confirmed that she attended with her husband, Jared Kushner.

The two have been conspicuously absent from Trump’s campaign, with some even mocking Ivanka when she published the sixteen lessons she learned turning 43 just hours before the presidential election, while her siblings campaigned for their father.

She had previously vowed to stay away from politics after she and Kushner became two of the former president’s most trusted advisers and key gatekeepers during his first administration.

But sources have suggested the former First Daughter could once again be at her father’s side as he retakes the White House. Trump’s daughter-in-law Lara Trump also attended the Mar-a-Lago celebration.

After Trump’s defeat in the 2020 election, Ivanka and Jared decided to settle in Miami with their three young children.

Ivanka focused on her role as a mother and on her old social lifestyle, earning her way back into the good books of pro-democracy celebrity circles.

Meanwhile, Jared focused on making a lot of money from investors abroad, people he met during his time in government and who have since poured millions into his private equity firm.

The former first daughter later released a carefully worded statement after failing to attend her father’s November 2022 announcement that he would run for president again.

“I love my father very much,” she said at the time. ‘This time I choose to prioritize my young children and the private life we ​​create as a family.

“I have no intention of getting involved in politics.”

Kushner reiterated that message last week, telling the New York Times that there was “zero” chance Ivanka would join the Trump campaign in the latter part of his campaign.

He added that Ivanka “made the decision when she left Washington that she was closing that chapter of her life.” And she has been remarkably consistent.

“It’s clear that the world will look different for us in the next four years if her father is president,” Kushner said.

‘We are keeping our fingers crossed for him and are of course proud of him. But you know, either way, our lives will continue as normal.”

Ivanka was also conspicuously absent from his 2024 election campaign, failing to show up at his historic trial in May where he was convicted of misdemeanor charges over the Stormy Daniels hush-money scandal.

But in May, news website Puck reported that Ivanka was “craving to return” to the spotlight.

A source close to the Trump family also suggested to DailyMail.com that Ivanka may play a minor role in her father’s administration.

“I don’t see her doing anything that would take her away from Florida and her family,” the insider said. “But maybe Donald would replace her on a trip abroad, she could travel with him occasionally, or she could work on a special project. Nothing everyday.’

The source continued, “She will enjoy the splendor. She would be present at the inauguration. But Ivanka is concerned about what the ‘tastemakers’ think and it behooves her to say that after January 6, and after his charges and convictions, she will no longer work full-time with her father.”

Finally, the insider added, “Everything should also be viewed through her husband’s lens and his [private equity] company.’

Kushner founded the firm Affinity Partners after leaving the White House, where he oversaw the administration’s peace efforts in the Middle East.

It now has a $3.1 billion fund funded by the governments of Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates and Qatar, as well as Taiwanese billionaire Terry Gou.

Kushner made these Arab contacts at the highest levels while in the Trump administration and is estimated to have personally earned at least $112 million in fees since 2021.

He has argued that as a private citizen he has the right to pursue international real estate and business deals – even if they involve foreign governments.

A company spokesperson also denied any financial impropriety or exploitation.

However, Kushner is the first to admit that the closer his father-in-law gets to the Oval Office, the more criticism his business dealings will face.

He also knows that the spotlight would be even more intense if he or Ivanka were to rejoin Trump in government.

The company also already offers him and Ivanka access to powerful and super-rich people and the means to enrich themselves through those contacts.
