Melania’s Former Friend Says First Lady Would Roll Her Eyes When “Princess Ivanka” Would “Ramble On About Her Grand Plan On Becoming America’s First Female President”

Stephanie Winston Wolkoff, a former close friend to Melania Trump, is dishing out the dirt on the First Lady in her forthcoming book, Melania and Me: The Rise and Fall of My Friendship with the First Lady that is set to be released in just a few days. And it’s been obvious for a while now that there are issues between Ivanka and Melania. It feels like we’re all forced to watch a badly scripted soap opera about a bunch of grifters with this first family. It’s 2020, so there ya’ go.

Excerpts of the book obtained by the Daily Mail suggest that the first lady doesn’t take Ivanka or her husband, Jared, very seriously — or at least with Ivanka Trump’s political aspirations. And Donald Trump seemed to suggest during the Republican National Convention that his daughter should be the first woman president in this country, making Wolkoff’s claims more believable.

“Melania would roll her eyes whenever she heard Ivanka ramble on about her grand plan on becoming America’s first female president with Jared by her side,” Wolkoff writes. “Jared would ultimately chime in with, ‘She’s got what it takes, she’s a born leader, the people love her, look at her,’ and Melania would mumble ‘no thank you.’”

Reports about the book have already leaked, and that includes claims that Melania called Ivanka ‘The Princess’, and was allegedly behind a mission to ensure she was blocked from her daddy-president’s swearing-in ceremony photo. And we all saw that look Melania gave after Ivanka passed her buy during the Republican convention.

Melania also allegedly once described Ivanka and her family members working in the White House as a bunch of “snakes,” and I have to agree with the first lady there for once.

Last week, an insider told the DailyMail that “Melania complained that Ivanka was always competing with her for his attention as if she knew better and was more capable of being the First Lady.”

As much as it would be tempting to ignore the slap-fights between Trump’s family members, we also have to remember that none of this is normal. And the head of this insufferable family is the current president of the United States. 2020, you guys.
