...a White House aide said Ivanka's statement was a personal conviction and that "a huge driving part of it is because of where the Democratic Party has gone" with far-left abortion measures.

Real Clear Politics published the interview with the president's daughter and White House aide on Thursday asking her about her stance on abortion.

Ivanka responded, "I respect all sides of a very personal and sensitive discussion, but I am also a mother of three children, and parenthood affected me in a profound way in terms of how I think about these things. I am pro-life, and unapologetically so."

Until now, Ivanka has avoided taking a firm stance publicly on the issue, while her father declared himself pro-life in the 2016 campaign for president.

The revelation is already receiving pushback from critics with Forbes reporting her newfound position "undermines her efforts to aid women's development."

The Daily Mail reports that a White House aide said Ivanka's statement was a personal conviction and that "a huge driving part of it is because of where the Democratic Party has gone" with far-left abortion measures.

Real Clear Politics also reported Thursday that Ivanka considers herself "a pragmatist" and says she is "a Trump-Republican."

"I think a lot of these labels, to be quite honest, are really limiting in terms of what you call yourself or how you identify," she said. "But I don't reject that label at all." Subscribe for free to Breaking Christian News here
