Ivana Trump says 'smart and beautiful' Ivanka could be first woman president, Internet retorts 'that's a stretch'

Ivana Trump believes that first daughter Ivanka Trump could 'definitely' be the 'first woman President' earning social media's ire.

Ivana Trump believes that her daughter Ivanka Trump whom she shares with POTUS Donald Trump, could most 'definitely' become the country's first female president. While speaking on the British talk show 'Loose Women', Ivana, 71, spoke about her daughter Ivanka on Monday, September 14. Ivana had said of her daughter, "She's in the White House every day. She's next to her father every day. She knows all what is going around."

Ivana and Donald Trump had been married in 1977 before going through a messy and high profile divorce which occurred in 1991. Since then Ivana has indicated that the two are on amicable and decent terms with each other. 

Ivana said of her 38-year-old daughter, "I think she could be one day the first girl, or woman, president. Definitely. She's smart as hell. She's beautiful. She's au courant. And how much more can you have?" Trump too has also brought up his daughter's name as a future presidential pick at a reelection campaign rally which had taken place last month. At the time, Trump had told a crowd in New Hampshire, "They're all saying 'we want Ivanka'. I don't blame them."

Ivana's comments were slammed by social media users who took to the comments section to do the same. One such user had written, "Says her Mom. My mommy thinks I should be the prettiest Princess in the World. I'm just sticking with what I am qualified for." Another outraged social media user had taken to Twitter to comment and say, "Because looks are what get you elected? And as to the 'smart' part - she is manipulative and a grifter of the highest order - so she has that going for her. She is her father's daughter."

"If a girl is supposed to look like her mother in 30 years, I'd say beautiful is a bit of a stretch. If she's anything like her father, I'd say smart is quite a bit of a stretch," said another social media user. While another pointed out, "If she was smart she would’ve stayed away from her father and changed her last name. History won’t be kind to him and she’s not going to fair well either."

"Can this get any crazier??! This is so outlandish... I guess, according to Ivana, after her sister and father is released from prison (alongside Daddy) she can run, and win the presidency! if you say so..." wrote a Twitter user who echoed the same sentiments. Other social media users commented on the excessive amount of makeup that Ivana was wearing and trolled her for the same. Many also poked fun at her aging looks and took to commenting on the same. 

We had earlier reported that Trump's former wife Ivana had also been slammed across social media for making disturbing comments on US immigration. During the same interview on 'Loose Women', she said that she is "very proud" of her ex-husband especially for "all he has achieved with immigration". 

She also later went on a rant about immigrants while accusing some of “stealing and raping American women”. When asked whether she is proud of Trump, she said, "Very proud. He was my husband of 15 years, I wish him all the best. I see he can do a great job, he is pro at everything which I believe in. He is Republican and so am I. He has achieved so much — especially with immigration."
