Senior White House adviser Ivanka Trump says she tries to stay away from politics, despite having an office in the West Wing, the most prized real estate in American politics.
In an interview with "Fox and Friends" that aired Monday, President Donald Trump's daughter said she tries to "leave the politics to other people and really lean into the issues that I care deeply about."
Trump praised her father, saying "his political instincts are phenomenal."
