On Tuesday, Berlin moderator Miriam Meckel brought Trump into the discussion with a pointed question about her White House role. Before the event, President Trump tweeted Tuesday that he is "proud of (@)IvankaTrump for her leadership on these important issues." Ivanka Trump also planned to visit the German capital's memorial to the 6 million Jews murdered by the Nazis.
