Trump endorsed Hillary Clinton for the Democratic primary over Barack Obama in 2007 and was a close friend of Chelsea Clinton.
"There's nothing skin-deep about Ivanka," Chelsea Clinton told Vogue in 2015. "And I think that's a real tribute to her because certainly anyone as gorgeous as she is could have probably gone quite far being skin-deep."
However, the pair's relationship appears to have become strained after the bitter race between their parents in the 2016 presidential election.
"I've not spoken to her since 2016," Chelsea Clinton told the "Today" show in 2020. "I have no interest in being friends with someone who is not only complicit, but actively taking part in this administration's everyday collision of cruelty and incompetence. So, that's the answer."
In 2012, Ivanka Trump endorsed Mitt Romney for president. He would later become one of President Trump's biggest critics in the Senate and voted to impeach him twice.
Trump positioned herself firmly on the right when she endorsed her father for president in 2016. She also changed her official voter registration from Democrat to Republican in 2018. She said in April 2016 that she was an independent.
"Like many of my fellow millennials, I do not consider myself categorically Republican or Democrat. ... Sometimes it's a tough choice," she said at the 2016 Republican National Convention in Cleveland, Ohio. "That is not the case this time. This is the moment and Donald Trump is the person to make America great again."
