Tiffany Trump Breaks Her Silence After Her Father Reportedly Said She Was ‘Fat’
Tiffany Trump posted an empowering quote on her Instagram story on Saturday for her 1 million followers to see.
In the context of the latest scandal from her father’s White House administration, it comes off as a dig at her detractors – and among those are the president himself.
In a black-and-white image uploaded to her story, Tiffany posted a quote from 13th-century Persian poet Rumi about acknowledging one’s self-worth despite what others may think or say.
It reads: “Study me as much as you like, you will never know me. For i differ a hundred ways from what you see me to be. put yourself behind my eyes, and see me as i see myself. Because i have chosen to dwell in a place you cant see.”

On Thursday, Trump’s 28-year-old personal assistant Madeleine Westerhout, who has worked directly under him since his presidency began, left her official position as director of Oval Office operations. The New York Times reported she resigned after details from her conversation with journalists at an off-the-record dinner were published.
Westerhout told reporters from The Washington Post, Bloomberg, and The Wall Street Journal after having “a couple drinks” that Trump doesn’t like to take pictures with Tiffany, 25, because he perceives her as being overweight. She also suggested that she was closer with the president than Tiffany and his eldest daughter, Ivanka, and joked that Trump couldn’t pick Tiffany out of a crowd.

On Friday, the president denied that claim to journalists outside the White House, saying “Oh, no. No. Tiffany is great. I love Tiffany.” He later tweeted the same, and said he was speaking with his daughter this weekend.
