MSNBC journalist Nicolle Wallace asked a colleague from Vanity Fair, Emily Jane Fox, why the US president’s two closest women, his daughter Ivanka Trump and first lady Melania Trump, have not reacted to Rudy Giuliani’s recent remark that he respects only “beautiful women and women of value.”
“Are they just the most stoic human beings? Are they numb, are they dead inside, are they paid off? I mean, what’s their deal?” the anchor asked her counterpart.
Fox, who branded Ivanka the “most masterful compartmentalizer that America has maybe ever seen,” promptly agreed on Wallace’s presumption, claiming, however, that “they do not see President Trump the way that all of us see” him.

“They have such a distorted image of who he is that they don’t have the kind of reaction that we do. It’s almost some sort of trick or spell he has on them,” she stated.
Trump’s personal attorney, a former New York mayor, got blasted by journalists and social media users for his comment on porn actress Stormy Daniels’ claims about her alleged affair with Donald Trump.
“I respect women, beautiful women and women with value, but a woman who sells her body for sexual exploitation I don’t respect,” he said then.
Many commentators believe that Wallace and Fox have gone too far and suspect some personal vendetta.
Others, however, endorsed the controversial statement.
There were also some who further slammed Ivanka and Melania.
