The 45th president of the United States is Donald Trump, but you wouldn’t know it by looking at this picture.
On Monday, Trump’s prodigal daughter, Ivanka, sparked massive controversy after posting a photograph of herself seated at the historic desk in the Oval Office to her social media platforms.
As you know, this coveted spot is usually reserved for, well, the president.
Ivanka shared the photograph of herself seated in her father’s chair with Trump and Canadian Prime Minister, Justin Trudeau, standing beside her to Twitter, with the caption, “A great discussion with two world leaders about the importance of women having a seat at the table!”

Upon seeing the unconventional photograph, people began to angrily call the 35-year-old’s authority into question. Many saw the pose as a disrespectful abuse of power, and reminded Ivanka that despite her heavy involvement with her father’s administration, she is not the president.
@IvankaTrump Unelected women should not get a seat at that particular table

@IvankaTrump you did nothing to gain that seat at the table other than being born to a rich father with a tie that's too long

.@IvankaTrump The Oval Office should not be a prop for the president's daughter

@IvankaTrump What qualifies you to be involved in talks with world leaders. You were not elected by anyone.

@IvankaTrump Okay, you REALLY do not belong there.
