The Speech from Ivanka Trump

As the proud daughter of your nominee, I am here to tell you that this is the moment and my father is the person to make America great again. My father is a fighter. He dug deeper, worked harder, got better and became stronger. I have seen him fight for his family. I have seen him fight for his employees. I have seen him fight for his company. And now, I am seeing him fight for our country. It has been the story of his life and more recently the spirit of his campaign. My father taught my siblings and me the importance of positive values and a strong ethical compass. He showed us how to deal with challenges and how to strive for excellence in all that we did. He taught us that there was nothing that we couldn’t accomplish if we married vision and passion with an enduring work ethic. And like him, we each have a responsibility to work, not just for ourselves, but for the betterment of the world around us. Throughout my entire life, I have witnessed his empathy and generosity towards others, especially those who are suffering. My father has not only the strength and ability necessary to be our next president, but also the kindness and compassion that will enable him to be the leader that this country needs. My father values talent. He recognizes real knowledge and skill when he finds them. He hires the best person for the job. When Donald Trump is in charge, all that counts is ability, effort and excellence. He is tough and persevering; he is honest and real; he is an optimist and a relentless believer in America and all of her potential. He loves his family and his country with his heart and soul. All things will be possible again. We can hope and dream and think big again. No one has more faith in the American people than my father. He will be your greatest, your truest and your most loyal champion. This is the fighter, the doer that you have chosen as your nominee. In ways no one expected. This moment in the life of our country has defined a mission and given it to an extraordinary man. And I couldn’t be more proud tonight to present to you and to all of America, my father, our next president.
