President Donald Trump s daughter Ivanka Trump responded to criticism of her role in her fathers administration, attempting to assuage ethical concerns and the perception that she and her husband two of her fathers most trusted advisers are complicit by not publicly pushing back on the president.

I think that for me, this isnt about promoting my viewpoints, she said in a CBS This Morning interview that aired Wednesday. I wasnt elected by the American people to be president. My father is gonna do a tremendous job. And I wanna help him do that. But I dont think that it will make me a more effective advocate to constantly articulate every issue publicly where I disagree.

I think most of the impact I have, over time most people will not actually know about, she added.

Despite initially saying that she would not have a role in her fathers administration, Ivanka Trump has become increasing visible, taking an office in the West Wing, advising her father and hosting White House events on womens issues and education. The White House announced last week that she would become an official government employee with the title assistant to the president but no salary.

This particular title was about giving critics the comfort that Im holding myself to that highest ethical standard, she said Wednesday.

She also defended her decision to not place her fashion brand in a blind trust , which would have reduced concerns that she is profiting off of her fathers presidency. She said other people would have been able to use her familys name if she had relinquished the brand.

Because the name of the business is Ivanka Trump, had I sold the business, an independent third party would be able to go around the globe today licensing and leveraging the name of the 45th president of the United States of America completely unfettered, she said.
