Ivanka Trump is the First Daughter, both for President Donald Trump and as a title now that her father is President.

She also acts as a White House adviser along with her husband Jared Kushner.


Beyond that, people are a little confused about what she does aside from inserting herself into diplomatic situations where she seems unwelcome.

If you missed that story from the G20 Summit, here's the scoop.

And the memes.

Ivanka has been called complicit then claimed she didn't know what the word means.

complicit: (adj) involved with others in an illegal activity or wrongdoing through action or inaction

She's also been called feckless.

feckless: (adj) lacking initiative or strength of character; irresponsible; useless; incompetent; inept

Giphy

But according to Ivanka Trump she "quietly works behind the scenes."



Currently—according to information given to news agencies—she's quietly working on gun control.


However MSNBC's Stephanie Ruhle called BS on all the quiet work Ivanka has done.

Ruhle was not alone in her assessment of Ivanka Trump's effectiveness.

CNN's chief legal analyst Jeffrey Toobin stated on The Situation Room:

"As far as I could tell, Ivanka Trump has led an accomplishment-free existence at the White House."
"The mythology that followed Ivanka Trump and her husband from New York, that they're really the moderates, they're really not racist, they really believe in gay rights—all of that has proven to be untrue."

Ouch.

Maybe it is time to speak up, because no one can seem to hear her quiet work.

Or see her invisible results.

Melania Just Held A Bizarre Press Conference To Debunk 'False Smears' Related To Jeffrey Epstein—And Everyone Had The Same Response

First Lady Melania Trump had everyone thinking the same thing after she held a bizarre press conference on Thursday to deny that she had anything but casual ties to Jeffrey Epstein, the late disgraced financier, pedophile, sexual abuser, and sex trafficker.

Mrs. Trump publicly denied any ties to convicted sex offenders Epstein and his procurer Ghislaine Maxwell, saying claims linking her to Epstein are “lies” meant to damage her reputation. She said she met her husband, President Donald Trump at a New York City party in 1998 and did not meet Epstein until 2000, contradicting a witness statement in the Epstein files that alleges Epstein introduced the couple.

Dem Rep. Sarah McBride Perfectly Shames Nancy Mace For Her Transphobic Response To McBride's Condemnation Of Trump

Delaware Democratic Representative Sarah McBride pushed back at South Carolina Republican Representative Nancy Mace after Mace responded with transphobia to McBride's criticism of President Donald Trump's genocidal threat to kill the "whole civilization" of Iran.

Trump has insisted that God supports his war on Iran and declared—before a provisional ceasefire was announced—that "a whole civilization will die tonight, never to be brought back again" ahead of a deadline to bomb Iran’s power plants and bridges that legal scholars and world leaders have said would constitute war crimes.

Vance addressed reporters on the tarmac at Budapest Ferenc Liszt International Airport as he left Hungary, where he had voiced the Trump administration’s support for Prime Minister Viktor Orbán only days before the country’s elections.

Comedian Explains How Millennials' Midlife Crises Are Different From Past Generations—And He's Spot On

Don't make promises you cannot keep, unless your goal is to hurt someone.

Millennials know that practically better than anyone. They were fed a long and impassioned series of advice, hyper-focused on the importance of getting a college degree in order to find a good job. They were also force-fed traditionalist ideals of getting married, having kids, and buying a nice house with the money they'd be making from that great job, of course.
