Asked about female Cabinet members, Trump proposes Ivanka
When asked what women he would nominate to his Cabinet if elected, Donald Trump offered only his daughter’s name.
{mosads}“Well we have so many different ones to choose,” the Republican presidential nominee said in an interview with First Coast News that was first reported by Buzzfeed.
The interview was conducted by First Coast anchor Angelia Savage, who used to work for the mogul at the Trump Organization.
“I can tell you everybody would say, ‘Put Ivanka in, put Ivanka in,’ you know that, right?” Trump added, according to a transcript given to Buzzfeed.
“She’s very popular, she’s done very well, and you know Ivanka very well. But there really are so many that are really talented people — like you, you’re so talented, but I don’t know if your viewers know that,” he said to Savage.
Trump’s opponent, Democrat Hillary Clinton, blasted him for the interview.
“We know a guy with a binder,” she tweeted to Trump, referencing a remark made by 2012 GOP candidate Mitt Romney, who is an unabashed critic of Trump. During a 2012 presidential debate, the former Massachusetts governor mentioned receiving binders of resumes from women seeking jobs with the state.
We know a guy with a binder, @realDonaldTrump. (He might not take your calls, though.) https://t.co/dxmFcISmaz
