Because while their parents – Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton – in several cases did “everything” to defame each other, the relationship was different for their two daughters Ivanka Trump and Chelsea Clinton.
The daughters of the two candidates have been good friends for many years.
Ahead of the 2016 presidential election, where Donald Trump went away with victory – said his daughter Trump in an interview with the program “20/20That election would not damage friendship in any way.
– She and I have been friends long before the campaign starts, and of course she will be my friend afterwards, she said in the program and added:
– I didn’t tell her about the specific complications we face in this new chapter, but I’m going to do it, she said.
Throughout the election campaign, the two political daughters were closely followed and during the second debate between Hillary and Donald, the daughters were observed as they hugged.
“The Dark Side”
Now Chelsea Clinton, who is also the only child of Bill and Hillary Clinton, opens up to the fact that the friendship ended shortly after the presidential election.
The last time the two spoke together was in November 2016, he says, according to the report Business Insider.
– She wasn’t the person I called when I was curious about my kids or when I was considering a crucial life choice, but we were definitely friends … and then she switched to the “dark side,” says Clinton in an interview with Andy Cohen on the talk show “See What Happens Live”.

It didn’t take long after the election before Ivanka was hired as a consultant in Trump’s inner circle, a position she has put to good use for several years. However, the Clinton family have been among Trump’s staunchest critics.
Also in 2020, daughter Clinton said it was out of the question for her to be friends with someone who “is not just an accomplice, but who actively participates in the cruelty and incompetence of this administration.”
– I don’t think Ivanka and Donald Trump are the same, but I think she is more of an accomplice. I don’t want to be friends with someone like that, she told Cohen, according to the report Business Insider.
– She’s proud
In September 2015, however, the tone was different. The Clinton daughters then stated that “friendship is much more important than politics”.
“I learned that growing up, watching my parents be friends with people from all political backgrounds in Arkansas,” he said People.
When NBC host Matt Lauer suggested some sort of meeting between the presidential candidate’s sons, Clinton’s daughters ignited the idea.
– It’s not something I’ve thought about, but it’s something I want to consider. When Ivanka introduced her to her father last week it was clear that she is proud of him, she said.
