“I made the mistake of once saying, ‘Never say never,’ ” she shares. “I do believe that in life there are so many things I’m doing today that I never thought I’d be doing, so I generally take that perspective. But I said that, and the headline was ‘IVANKA MIGHT RUN FOR OFFICE,’ so… But, no, it’s not something I think I would ever do.”
