world leaders at G20

<snip>
I try to stay out of politics, Ivanka Trump said in a recent interview. But the US presidents daughter spent part of her weekend sitting around a table with the Chinese, Russian and Turkish presidents, the German chancellor and the British prime minister.
The former businesswoman and fashion model briefly took her fathers seat during a G20 session in Hamburg, prompting claims of nepotism and a heavy dose of sarcasm about her diplomatic credentials.
Ms Trump, 35, sat around the table with Xi Jinping, Vladimir Putin, Recep Tayyip Erdoğan, Angela Merkel and Theresa May. One official who was watching the session told the Bloomberg news agency she had taken her fathers place on at least two occasions on Saturday but had not spoken.

A spokesman for the first daughter told Bloomberg that she had been sitting in the back of the room and then briefly joined the main table when the president stepped out. Jim Yong Kim, the president of the World Bank, addressed the meeting, which dealt with African migration and health issues relevant to a fund that Ms Trump and the World Bank had just announced.

(53,410 posts)For a while now I've been more and more convinced that she's also a Narcissist, just like her daddy.
Daddy treats her awfully special doesn't he? And she acts like it's perfectly natural for her to sit with the top leaders of the West, just because she's his daughter. Where does that conceit come from, I wonder.
