Ivanka and Jared are now both right there in the White House, "advising" Dad and hobnobbing with world leaders like Angela Merkel and the Prime Minister of Japan. We see pictures of their kids boarding Marine One. Donald Jr. and Eric are banished and have to stay away to run the business. Plus, their financial situations are different. If anything ever happens to The Donald, Ivanka will still be married to a very rich man. Her husband is just as rich, or possibly richer, than her father. The boys? Not so much. Fascinating.
Now it turns out that neither Ivanka nor Jared were around to advise the president during the healthcare debacle, and POTUS isn't happy:

Looks like living the glamorous jetset lifestyle you're entitled to when you're (more or less) a billionaire can sometimes interfere with being the adored favorite child (or son-in-law) of a self-absorbed, narcissistic bombastic not-too-bright manchild. To top it all off, Ivanka and Jared's neighbors in Kalorama are not happy about the disruption to their neighborhood:
“Are
you kidding me?” asked Marti Robinson, a trial attorney who lives across the
street. “This is the adult child of the president. Sometimes there are 10 cars
out here.”
Metal
barricades along Tracy Place and Kalorama Road now make it impossible for
pedestrians to use the sidewalk bordering the house. Neighbors talk of clusters
of Secret Service agents lingering on the pavement, conversing in loud voices
and even changing their shirts in public view.
“They’ve
completely taken over the whole street — as if they have the authority!” said
Robinson, an Obama appointee to the U.S. Product Safety Commission. (Read the Washington Post story here.)
