Trump family insider says Ivanka now gets 'nothing' out of her relationship with her dad
Former first daughter Ivanka Trump is no longer getting any value out of her relationship with her father, former President Donald Trump, said his niece Mary Trump on CNN Friday.
This comes after the former president was convicted on 34 counts of falsifying business records, in a New York felony case that centered on his efforts to silence any news of an extramarital affair he allegedly had with adult film star Stormy Daniels while his wife and former First Lady Melania was taking care of his child — a trial in which neither Melania nor Ivanka showed up to a single day of the proceedings.
"As you know, Trump's daughter, Ivanka, your cousin, posted a picture after the verdict came down saying — I'm quoting her now — 'I love you, Dad,'" said anchor Wolf Blitzer. "A source tells CNN that Ivanka, her husband Jared Kushner, and Melania Trump, and Barron Trump for that matter, were over at Trump Tower today, despite not attending the actual trial. "What do you make of this?"

"I think that, like all of Donald's relationships, even his relationship with his children, is transactional, and that goes both ways," said Mary Trump bluntly.
But even more than that, she said, "I think Ivanka made very clear that she doesn't get enough out of this relationship anymore. She's barely been heard from for months, she could not be bothered to show up at the trial, which is really when you would want to be supporting somebody, right? Not after it's over."
Ultimately, she added, "I think it's way too little too late, but that clearly is where they've landed in their relationship at this point."
Ivanka, whom Trump once famously said he would probably be dating if they weren't blood relatives, played a key advisory role in the White House during Trump's administration, but has since shied away from involvement in politics.
