Revelations about US President Donald Trump (74) are a penny a dozen. Now apparently it is the turn of the First Daughter Ivanka (39). In a “Vanity Fair” article, Lysandra Ohrstrom (38) unpacks: freelance journalist, former Middle East reporter and former best friend of Ivanka Trump.
“He had Trump’s radar for status, money and power and his father’s instinct to throw others in front of the bus to save himself,” Ohrstrom says, describing her former friend from school. The two had met at Chapin Girls’ School in New York.
Old photographs show teenagers as nail polish models or in a happy gathering. During a language course in Paris, they became best friends forever, after repeatedly escaping and breaking the rules together. “For more than a decade we were sisters rather than friends,” Ohrstrom writes. “Sure, she loved talking about herself and she was blatantly vain, but she was also funny, loyal and, let’s face it, quite exciting.”
Trump commented on the figure of Ohrstrom
Ohrstrom also remembers Donald Trump well from this time. He has shown a remarkable interest in the appearance of his teenage daughter and her friends. He kept asking her if there was anyone at school who was prettier than Ivanka. Or he congratulated Ohrstrom when he had lost weight. When Donald Jr. was feeding her cheese toast at Mar-a-Lago, he remarked, “He did you a favor.”
It wasn’t until a good ten years ago, shortly after Ohrstrom was still the bridesmaid at Ivanka’s wedding to Jared Kushner (39), that the close friendship broke down “under the weight of our differences,” Ohrstrom said.
An example: Ivanka would always ask her for book recommendations, but she boredomally rejected Ohrstrom’s recommended “Empire Falls,” which won the renowned Pulitzer Prize. “Ly, why are you telling me to read a book about fucking poor people?” Ivanka said. And: “What part of you do you think interests me?”
“I still miss my old friend”
Ohrstrom describes the president’s daughter as a person who loves herself and who cares the most about her external impact. “When Ivanka worked for her father’s government, he was sure that she would make up for her father’s more regressive racist tendencies, not out of a moral obligation, but because the Davos World Economic Forum does not like to imprison young children and climate accords. global to break. “
The question, which of course remains open: Why is Ohrstrom unpacking now? Like many old school friends, she kept quiet because they were always taught to be discreet, Ohrstrom writes. However, after the US elections and the baseless allegations of voter fraud from Trump’s camp, he has had enough. “I still miss my old friend. Above all, I miss the moment when the Trump family’s quest for power was not dangerous for the country. “She feels ashamed and regrets not holding her ex-girlfriend responsible earlier.
