After Donald Trump’s historic victory, Ivanka stood on stage with her father for the first time since this campaign. However, she suffered a major setback when Trump’s daughter-in-law, Lara, secured her place as the president’s right-hand man after months of brutal campaigning.

Along with husband Jared Kushner, Ivanka, 43, attended her father’s election party at Mar-a-Lago to witness his incredible political return. Her presence coincides with speculation that she is trying to return to politics after Trump’s resounding victory over Democratic rival Kamala Harris.

After playing key roles in both of her father’s previous campaigns, 78-year-old daughter Ivanka decided to step back from politics to make room for the ‘ambitious’ Lara.

The family members who joined Trump on stage included Melania Trump, sons Eric, 40, and Donald Trump Jr., 46, Barron, 18, daughters, Tiffany, 31, and Ivanka and granddaughter Kai, 17.

Trump’s daughters-in-law, Eric Trump’s wife Lara and Donald Trump Jr.’s fiancée Kimberly Guilfoyle, also took center stage during the ecstatic celebrations.

Republicans praise Lara Trump for her unwavering dedication

Ivanka, dressed in a blue velvet suit, smiled alongside her husband, Jared Kushner, as she heard her father say, “Honestly, I think this was the greatest political movement of all time.”

After thanking his “beautiful wife” Melania, Trump expressed his gratitude to his “amazing” children.

Wearing black pants and a sheer black blouse with long sleeves, Lara stood proudly to Trump’s right on Wednesday as he told Americans he had “made history.”

Meanwhile, Republican voters showered the new MAGA star with love on social media, saying she “deserves so much credit for this win” after “saving the Republican Party.”

“Lara Trump deserves praise for her continued dedication and hard work. She has proven to be a powerhouse and shows up with integrity and focus day in and day out,” said an admirer.

Lara Trump’s rise within the family during the campaign

Lara, the former television producer, has actively supported Trump since he emerged as the Republican candidate.

The 41-year-old, who is now co-chairman of the Republican National Committee, grew close to the family during the election campaign by appearing at her father-in-law’s rallies.

Lara was at the forefront of Trump’s recovery efforts in North Carolina when Hurricane Helene devastated the state.

Meanwhile, Eric praised his wife’s performance during the campaign.

“You put your heart and soul into the job and proved them all wrong,” he wrote on X, alongside a photo of himself and his wife during the vote counting.

What about Ivanka?

Ivanka was a prominent force behind her father during his victory speech in 2016, previewing the crucial role she would play during his first term as president.

During Trump’s first administration, she and Jared Kushner emerged as two of his most trusted advisers.

However, the pair, who vowed to avoid politics and focus on their family in Miami, were conspicuously absent from this campaign.

However, Ivanka looked stunning even from the sidelines of the stage thanks to her bold red lip and stunning blue matching pantsuit.
