On the final day of Republican National Convention, US
President Donald Trump’s daughter Ivanka Trump began her speech, by calling herself
a “proud daughter” of the United States President.
“Four years ago, I
introduced you to a builder, an entrepreneur, an outsider and the people’s
nominee for President of the United States. Tonight, I stand before you as the
proud daughter of the People’s President.”
“My father has strong convictions. He knows what he
believes, and says what he thinks. Whether you agree with him or not, you
always know where he stands. I recognise that my dad’s communication style is
not to everyone’s taste… I know his tweets can feel a bit unfiltered, but the
results… They speak for themselves,” she added.

“Four years ago I told you I would fight alongside my father and four years later here I am,” she said, after touting her father’s economic policies and COVID-19 measures.
“As our nation endures this grave trial, I pray for the families who are mourning the loss of a loved one, for all those who are battling COVID-19, and for the first responders and the healthcare heroes who remain on the frontlines of this fight,” she said.
“The grief, sorrow and anxiety during this time is felt by us all. I’ve been with my father and seen the pain in his eyes when he receives updates on the lives that have been stolen by this plague. I have witnessed him make some of the most difficult decisions of his life,” she added.
