Is she going to run for office or is she doing something nice?

Ivanka Trump met with local faith and community leaders, including grifting Pastor Paula White, to help distribute more than 1,300 food boxes in her first public appearance since her father’s disgraceful exit from the White House, according to Fox News. It was previously speculated that the former first daughter would challenge Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL) for his seat. However, in February, Rubio’s office said that Ivanka has no plans to run against the Florida Republican in the 2022 election.

It’s difficult to understand whether Ivanka is taking part in a photo-op or if she’s trying to do her part amid the pandemic by helping people in need. The reason that’s hard to determine is that narcissism runs deep in the Trump family. At any rate, Ivanka, a former adviser to the former president, met with Pastor Paula White and other local faith and community leaders to help distribute the food boxes. And regardless of whether she’s trying to rehabilitate her image, we’ll take that as a win for Americans that are direly in need of basic necessities.

According to the report, Ivanka Trump delivered the boxes to the homes of disadvantaged community members who were unable to attend the in-person distribution event and delivered boxes to a local shelter for human trafficking survivors.

The shelter, called The Lifeboat Project, expressed its gratitude to Ivanka Trump in a statement posted to the shelter’s Instagram account and asked its readers to put politics aside and focus on the issue at hand.

“Human Trafficking is a crime against humanity, and that alone stands above politics,” the Lifeboat Project wrote. “Today was a beautiful day to put politics aside at The Lifeboat Project and let faith and truth be our topic of connection. We had the opportunity to fill the room with global leaders and have a conversation about our growing world model.”

That’s a good way to put it, and although a lot of people, myself included, can’t stand Ivanka after she enabled her father for four long years, it’s always a welcome sight to see disadvantaged Americans getting a hand-up for a change.
