Trump is feminist, claims daughter Ivanka

US: 34 years old Ivanka Trump, daughter of Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump says her father is a feminist who has "lived" gender equality adding that women had been employed at the highest level in her dad's business."

In a poll conducted by Fox News at the end of June, it revealed that Trump is 19 per cent behind opponent, Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton among female voters.
Ivanka who works on her dad's campaign, told the Sunday Times her father's feminism was "a big reason I am the woman I am today".

"He always told me and showed me that I could do anything I set my mind to if I married vision and passion with work ethic," she said.

"He's also surrounded me with strong female role models who have done just that since I was a little girl.

"People talk about gender equality. He has lived it. He has employed women at the highest levels of the Trump organisation for decades, so I think it's a great testament to how capable he thinks women are and has shown that his whole life."
