#436 – Ivanka Trump: Politics, Family, Real Estate, Fashion, Music, and Life

at the Plaza Hotel, which she oversaw and actually kind of was her old post office. It was this unbelievable historic hotel in New York City. And I'd follow her around at construction meetings and on job sites. And there she is dancing. See? That's funny that that's the picture you pull up.

That's great. She had such a joy to her. And she was so unabashed in her perspective and her opinions. I mean, you know, she made my father look reserved. Whatever she was feeling, she was just very expressive and a lot of fun to be around.

I think fundamentally, as people, we desire freedom. We want agency. And my mom was like a lot of other people who grew up in similar situations where she didn't like to talk about it that often. So one of my real regrets is that I didn't push her harder. But I think back to the conversations we did have, and I try to imagine what it's like. She was at Charles University in Prague, which was...

really like a focal point of the reforms that were ushered in during the Prague Spring and the liberalization agenda that was happening. The dance halls were opening, the student activists, and she was attending university there right at that same time. So the contrast to this feeling of freedom and progress and liberalization in the spring.

And then it's so quickly being crushed in the fall of that same year when the Warsaw Pact countries and the Soviet Union rolled in to put down and ultimately roll back all those reforms. So for her to have lived through that, you know, she didn't come to North America until she was 23 or 24. So that was her life. As a young girl, she was on the junior national ski team for Czechoslovakia.

My grandfather used to train her. They used to put the skis on her back and walk up the mountain in Czechoslovakia because there were no ski lifts. She actually made me do that when I was a child. just to let me know what her experience had been. If I complained that it was cold out, she's like, well, you didn't have to walk up the mountain.
