Ivanka Trump will begin working from a White House office, despite previously stating that she would not take a formal role in her fathers adminstration, Politico reports. Trumps new West Wing office will be located on the second floor, next to that of senior adviser Dina Powell. Trumps new unofficial position will come with a government-issued phone, and Trump is in the process of obtaining security clearance, Politico reports. Her new proximity to the Oval Office raises questions about her involvement in the White House and the potential conflicts of interest with her own business ventures. Her attorney Jamie Gorelick told Politico that Trump would advise her father on a range of unspecified issues and that she would serve as the presidents eyes and ears. But because of Trumps lack of an official position or salary, her ethical obligations in the new office are unclear. Gorelick told Politico that Trump would voluntarily comply with the rules that would apply if she were a government employee, even though she is not.

To keep him from losing it more than he already has. He probably can't go for more than an hour without her reassuring him he's the bestest daddy-president that there ever was.

but I really do think there is "something" going on between her and daddy. Just my thought.
