Melania and Ivanka Trump, two "first ladies" at the White House


It is a virtual certainty: under the presidency of Donald Trump, two women will share the role of first lady in the White House - the wife, Melania, and the daughter, Ivanka. There is no doubt that each will know how to play its role, more or less rewarding.


During the entrance exam to the ENA, an illustrious national school of administration where the French elites reproduce, a candidate - who has become famous - was distinguished by a brilliant "grand oral", the flagship test of the exam, whose subject was: "the woman". The exposition, necessarily in two Cartesian parts, had thus been introduced, in Latin, by the applicant: "mater, mulier" - the mother, the wife. But to access the White House, today, it would be necessary to add, according to Donald Trump: the girl.

Ivanka and Donald Trump, a fusional love ... and blind

As long as he does not confuse it with another. Because love can make you blind. Two days before his inauguration, the almost new president of the greatest power in the world made the planet laugh with a new blunder. He thus mistakenly congratulated another Ivanka (first name of his darling daughter), an Englishwoman, who took the opportunity to tell her what she thought of her climate-skepticism. Donald Trump took up on January 16, 2017 in the evening, on his own account, the tweet of a physiotherapist in Massachusetts, who complimented @Ivanka (and not @IvankaTrump), stressing that she was "wonderful, a woman with character and of the class "(maybe also by mistake?). The next morning, finding out about it, this digital consultant from the seaside town of Brighton in the south of the United Kingdom, former digital manager for the Labor Party, replied with humor in the same way: "And you, you are a man of great responsibilities. Can I suggest more attention on Twitter and more time to learn about climate change "?



Donald Trump seems indeed, very close to Ivanka, the second of three children he had with Ivana, a former model of Czech origin - we can only notice the consistency of the eastern European tropism of the billionaire president for his wives - and from whom he had divorced with great publicity because he "could no longer have sex with a mother." The class already.

This did not prevent the ex from supporting the Republican candidate, probably because of the immense fortune (literally and figuratively) that the separation gave him.


The billionaire who has made his daughter his favorite heiress does not hesitate to share his fatherly love with her in public with that verbal elegance which is so peculiar to him. In March 2006, when he was not even a candidate for the candidacy yet, the real estate mogul and successful media host, launched on the set of "The View", a "talk show", exclusively female from ABC channel: "If Ivanka weren't my daughter, I would have hit on her!" Adding, no doubt realizing that he was not confiding in a bar buddy: "is it that bad?"



The wife, Melania, having announced that she would make a separate apartment (at least until the end of her son's school year), staying at the top of Trump Tower in New York, in the "cozy" apartment she occupies with Barron William Trump, the president's last son, aged 11, speculation is rife: will Ivanka occupy the wing reserved for "first ladies" in the White House?

Model: "working mother", superwoman and rich

Impeccably presented, this ex-model (decidedly ...) turned businesswoman has her father's gift for self-promotion: at 35, she was already vice-president of the Trump Organization. She also created a clothing brand in her name and made herself the herald of working mothers on social media. On her twitter account, this economics graduate from several prestigious schools, introduces herself as follows: "Wife, mother, sister and daughter. Entrepreneur, advocate passionate about education and the empowerment of women and girls. Native of New York , leaving for Washington ".


The French newspaper Le Monde tells us that she is "about to move in with husband and children in the heart of a chic district of the federal capital, close to the new residence of the Obama family and that of the French Ambassador ". And that Jared Kushner, (also) heir to a thriving real estate company - has already chosen his synagogue there. Ivanka, by marrying him, converted to a Judaism of strict obedience. The couple had three children, the last born in the middle of the 2016 campaign for the Republican nomination, a childbirth that only stopped her for a few days .... And here she is, in a cold snap, posing for posterity with the cherub: "baby, it's awfully cold outside!"


Conflicts of interest

This "super woman", with a good class feminism, has done a lot to win women over to the cause of her chauvinist father. We recalled it, in Terriennes, the day after Donald Trump's surprise victory. A few weeks before the election of November 8, 2016, she defended one of the flagship measures of the Republican candidate's family policy: a "salary" awarded to mothers choosing to stay at home, or to continue working, to raise their children. These "Working mothers", who feel abandoned by all, erected as a symbol, as mothers of the American people, on September 13, 2016, by the Trumps father and daughter in unison. One of these points ignored by most of the media and which nevertheless allow us to understand how this particularly misogynistic man rallied to him a number of voters: 49% of them all origins and classes combined, and even 53% "white", white.


Could the brilliant Ivanka be flawless? The young woman, like her father, tends to confuse public and private goods, and to want to privatize certain prerogatives of the presidential office. What we call a propensity for conflicts of interest ... Barely elected Mr Trump, during a televised interview on November 14, 2016, she appeared at his side, with on the wrist, clearly visible, a $ 10,000 bracelet, which was advertised by her jewelry and clothing brand, to tout the bracelet the next day. The case began with a small "style alert" email sent "timely" by Ivanka's jewelry company, Ivanka Trump Fine Jewelry, to numerous fashion journalists. In July of the same year, she had already caused a stir by advertising the dress she had worn to the Republican convention when her father was inaugurated. Immediately after the convention, she tweeted a link to a page of Macy’s department stores selling a similar dress.

There is no doubt that henceforth its slightest deviations will be tracked down. Here she is warned ...

Melania Trump, courage: let's run away

In any case, it is not Melania Trump who risks overshadowing him. The "real" first lady provided minimal service throughout her husband's run for president. She was most often seen tense, with a rare smile, fearing the slightest misstep, she was so scrutinized. What did not fail to happen: in the middle of July 2016, a speech prepared by her teams, or those of her husband, to be delivered in Cleveland (Ohio, midwest), provoked the taunts of a good part mainstream media, the ones Donald hates. The text read diligently was largely a "cut and paste" of a speech by Michelle Obama ... in 2008, after Barack's victory. Where it was about education, in a modest environment, based on hard work and perseverance.

“Barack and I were brought up with the same values: that you have to work hard for what you want from life,” said the first. "From a young age, my parents instilled in me the values ​​that you have to work hard for what you want to achieve out of life", repeated the second eight years later ...


An echo that had not escaped Javier Panzar, reporter for the Los Angeles Times, or the CNN channel which had made a murderous montage ...


That said, let's be fair: when it comes to hard work and perseverance, Melania can boast too. Her official biography tells us that she was born on April 26, 1970, under the Slovenian name Melanija Knavs, in Novo Mesto (literally "the new place"), a small town in tiny Slovenia (just over 2 million people). inhabitants) wedged between the Adriatic Sea, Italy, Austria, Hungary and Croatia, then part of the late Yugoslavia, and today a flourishing member of the European Union.

His parents, very hardworking people, exercised their talents as a dealer in cars for a state enterprise, for the father, and as a designer for a children's clothing factory, for the mother. Modest people who lived in a discreet apartment in a fashionable socialist city, and "who were raising their three children in the precepts of Marxism-Leninism".


According to some sources, still small, she paraded wearing the clothes designed by her mother. She would then have studied styling in turn (one year in Ljubljana, the capital) before embarking on modeling, spotted in the street by a fashionable photographer from Slovenia. She is said to be fluent in Serbo-Croatian, Slovenian, English, Italian, French and German. And no doubt she understands Russian, this Slavic language that her husband seems to be particularly fond of.


But the conditional is required according to some caustic, even slightly misogynistic commentators like Ch. V. for La Libre, a French-speaking Belgian daily, which rings the charge under the severe title "Melania Trump, the most embarrassing First Lady in history ... ":" Under her air of a Russian doll snatched by the not very charming prince from his socialist homeland and his modest family, Melania Trump, née Knauss, is not the naive heroine of a fairy tale. Her official biography - available until recently on its site but since deleted… - mentioned studies in architecture, at the University of Ljubljana. Except that few remember to have crossed on a bench his pretty face. Melania Trump that she is multilingual. Nobody has proof of that, given the few public appearances to which she lends herself. "

Legal migrant or not legal? That is the question

In 1993, the Slovenian brand Mura had staged her in a premonitory television campaign, presenting her as the "First Lady of Fashion", with bodyguards, a limousine, a plane and making her sit in a oval office.

She obtained a permanent resident card in the United States in 2001 and American nationality in 2006. She will be the first woman born abroad to become First Lady since 1825.

In August 2016, nude photos of her appeared in the press, apparently taken in the United States in 1995 when she always claimed to have arrived there in 1996, prompting questions about her legal status at the time. Enough to irritate her husband, champion of the fight against illegal migrants ...


Faithful to this man, 24 years his senior, she always supported him, even when we heard Donald Trump boast in vulgar terms that he could have the women he wanted.

She said she wanted to be "very traditional - like Betty Ford or Jackie Kennedy", serving "women and children". Since November 7, 2016, his twitter account has been frozen, as if the world had stopped spinning on the eve of that famous (or fatal) day. Where she offered to share her views and inspirations for America, one last time, before calling to vote for her husband. Before the big dive. For her, as for the whole world ...



Dress or not Melania Trump, a political choice, and perhaps a little misogynist ...

Agence France Presse informs us that since the election of Donald Trump, his wife Melania has become a subject of major controversy for the fashion world in the United States, and many designers refuse to dress the First Lady, never seen. Dressing the president's wife is, however, a unique opportunity for visibility, especially during the investiture ceremony. Michelle Obama went further by making it a powerful promotional tool by making sharp choices and pushing small designers. Until November 8, all the discussions mixing fashion and the American presidential election focused on Hillary Clinton, favorite of both polls and designers. Melania didn't interest anyone. Dumbfounded by the victory of his adversary, many actors of the small world of creation attacked the only target within their reach: the future "First Lady". French Sophie Theallet, New Yorker by adoption, was the first in mid-November to say that she would not dress Melania Trump, in reaction to "the racist, sexist and xenophobic rhetoric used by the presidential campaign of her husband". Others followed, mainly Marc Jacobs, Derek Lam, Phillip Lim and Christian Siriano. "Melania deserves the respect enjoyed by the other First Ladies", argued conversely Diane von Furstenberg, seamstress but also president of the very influential American Fashion Union (CFDA). Like Tommy Hilfiger, Calvin Klein, Carolina Herrera, Zac Posen, and Thom Browne.

But for having thanked, in a tweet, the future First Lady for wearing a black D&G dress for New Years Eve, designer Stefano Gabbana has suffered a deluge of criticism on social networks.
