Ivanka Trump Says She Believes Father Over His Accusers According to reports, Ivanka Trump told NBC in South Korea that she believes her father's denials against the women who have accused him of sexual misconduct. I believe my father, I know my father. So I think I have that right as a daughter to believe my father. She also commented on her father's proposal that teachers should be armed in the even of an attack on schools. I think that having a teacher who is armed who cares deeply about her students or his students and who is capable and qualified to bear arms is not a bad idea, but it is an idea that needs to be discussed. She added that those teachers would have to be held to an "incredibly high standard."
