Ivanka Trump discussed her ongoing friendship with Chelsea Clinton, calling her a "great girl" and a "great friend" on Fox News' "On the Record with Greta Van Susteren" Tuesday night, despite their parents facing off in the election.
"I think we have great respect for each other," Trump said of Clinton. "That hasn't changed."
Trump said that they pair has stayed close despite the extreme "intensity and scrutiny" they are currently experiencing.
"We're not the candidates," Trump said. "We're the candidates' children."
The businesswoman said she and Clinton "never talked about politics before this campaign," and that she thinks it's "probably a good topic" for them to avoid.
Trump said she doesn't think her father is portrayed correctly in the media, and that mainstream media often misses how incredibly warm, compassionate and funny he is.
"Anyone who knows him knows that to be true," she said.
Trump also touched on how difficult it is to be the child of a presidential candidate, but acknowledged that it's probably harder for her than it is for her father.
The "viciousness" and "attacks" is a "hard thing as a daughter of a candidate to experience," Trump said. "But, my father is strong, and he's tough."
