President Donald Trump considered nominating his daughter Ivanka Trump for a variety of jobs including one at the World Bank, according to a new interview. “I even thought of Ivanka for the World Bank,” Trump told The Atlantic magazine in an interview. If he did nominate her, Trump said, “they’d say nepotism, when it would’ve had nothing to do with nepotism. The position of World Bank president has historically gone to an American, while a European has led its sister organisation, the International Monetary Fund. The White House previously said Ivanka Trump was involved in the selection process for the post, but wasn’t a contender for the job.
