Speaking To Governors, Trump Claims Ivanka ‘Created Millions Of Jobs’

Reprinted with permission from Alternet.

President Donald Trump over the weekend made the claim that his daughter Ivanka Trump has created “millions of jobs.”

The assertion came as Trump addressed a gathering of governors at the White House on Sunday.

Trump did not explain what he meant by the statement.
