Trump says he considered nominating Ivanka to lead World Bank
By Morgan Gstalter - 04/12/19 07:30 AM EDT

President Trump said he considered nominating his daughter Ivanka Trump as president for the World Bank because “she’s very good with numbers,” according to a new interview with released by The Atlantic on Friday.

Trump agreed to sit down with the outlet to discuss his daughter’s role in the White House as a senior adviser and opened up about other considerations for her career.

 â€œI even thought of Ivanka for the World Bank ... She would’ve been great at that because she’s very good with numbers,” Trump said.

“She’s got a great calmness ... I’ve seen her under tremendous stress and pressure,” the president continued. “She reacts very well — that’s usually a genetic thing, but it’s one of those things, nevertheless.”

Trump ended up nominating longtime Treasury and State official David Malpass to lead the institution.

Yeah, that ‘calmness’ is actually a vacuous stare from not understanding what the hell is going on.
I disagree.  Circle gets the square.

Isn't it funny that people thought Trump was a Nationalist? 
AG William Barr: "I'm recused from that matter because one of the law firms that represented Epstein long ago was a firm that I subsequently joined for a period of time."

Alexander Acosta Labor Secretary resigned under pressure concerning his "sweetheart deal" with Jeffrey Epstein.  He was under consideration for AG after Sessions was removed, but was forced to resign instead.

He said this to The Atlantic?  I think he was yanking their chain.  He knows how much they hate Ivanka.

That's what I think.  He was getting a laugh out of it.

Not so sure. Several other news sources are reporting the story.  Important word here is 'considered'.  Hopefully it won't become a reality as it would be a huge conflict of interest, but wouldn't surprise me.

The other stories are citing The Atlantic, so it’s only being repeated, not really independently sourced and reported.

You're arguing with someone you think is a fool, Einstein.
