Ivanka Trump shocked at ‘level of viciousness’ against father Donald, by Sharon Nunn.

Ivanka Trump said Monday she was surprised by the ferocity of some of the opposition to President Donald Trump and his agenda, but said it wouldn’t deter the administration’s policy plans.

“It is hard. There’s a level of viciousness that I was not expecting,” Ms. Trump said on Fox News, when asked about whether it has proved hard to stick to the agenda amid the Russia investigation and other distractions. “But this isn’t supposed to be easy. My father and this administration intends to be transformative. We want to do big, bold things.”

Still, “I was a little blindsided … on a personal level” by the “ferocity” of the opposition to her father, she said.
