The president’s daughter, Ivanka Trump, despises the poor, according to an article in the Vanity Fair newspaper.
– Why do you tell me to read this book about some poor poor people?
That was her comment when a friend recommended the book “Empire Falls” to her.

Lysandra Ohrstrom and Ivanka Trump together in New York 2007. Two years later, Lysandra was a bridesmaid when Ivanka married Jared Kushner.
In a candid article in the American magazine Vanity Fair, journalist Lysandra Ohrstrom writes about her childhood friend Ivanka Trump, 39, the daughter of US President Donald Trump.
– She had a trump card in terms of status, money and power, and her father’s innate ability to sacrifice others to save himself, Ohrstrom writes.
She exemplifies with an early memory in which Ivanka prompted Lysandra and some other girls to show their breasts to a sausage vendor from the living room window.
Ivanka was behind everything, but she claimed to the director that she was innocent and escaped punishment. The rest of us were punished.
Ohrstrom talks about a phone call when they were both 20 years old. She often told Ivanka about different books. This time she had recommended the book “Empire Falls”, about a small business owner in a working class area. Ivanka replied:
– Why do you tell me to read this book about some poor poor people? What part of you do you think would interest me?
The exact phrase Ivanka used was “a book about fucking poor people.”

“Teachers can’t afford a BMW,” Ivanka said
When they went to the movies, Ivanka used to point out if any character had too expensive things:
– Teachers can’t afford a BMW, you might say.
In the article, Ohrstrom explains why he liked Ivanka when they were younger and describes how they broke up:
– Of course she loved to talk about herself and was blatantly vain. But she was also fun, loyal, and exciting to be with.
While working as a journalist in the Lebanese capital, Beirut, Ohrstrom acquired a necklace with his name written in Arabic letters.
– How can you wear that? Scream “terrorist,” Ivanka commented.
Ohrstrom’s explanation of why he wrote the article is his disappointment that Ivanka followed in her father’s footsteps so clearly, without moral concerns.
– It is time for one of the many critics of Ivanka from childhood to appear, if only to ensure that she never recovers from the decision she made to link her fate to that of her father, writes Lysandra Ohrstrom.
