US President Donald Trump's daughter, Ivanka Trump, says in an interview to be broadcast on Wednesday that she disagrees with her father, and when she does, she speaks with "total candour."
"So where I disagree with my father, he knows it, and I express myself with total candour," she says in the interview with CBS television that is due to air on Wednesday morning in the US.
"Where I agree, I fully lean in and support the agenda and hope that I can be an asset to him and make a positive impact. But I respect the fact that he always listens. It's how he was in business. It's how he is as president."
She rejected criticism that by remaining silent on key issues - such as LGBT rights, climate change and abortion - she and her husband Jared Kushner are "complicit" with controversial White House policies.
"If being complicit is wanting to, is wanting to be a force for good and to make a positive impact then I'm complicit," Ivanka Trump counters in extracts published ahead of the broadcast.
"I would say not to conflate lack of public denouncement with silence," she says.
Ivanka Trump raised eyebrows recently when she was appointed "assistant to the president," a position for which she will not draw a salary, and her husband White House senior adviser, despite not having any diplomatic experience.
"I don't know that the critics who may say that of me, if they found themselves in this very unique and unprecedented situation that I am now in, would do any differently than I am doing," Ivanka Trump said.
