Anita McBride, a former chief of staff to First Lady Laura Bush and board member of the White House Historical Association, points to several historical examples of first daughters taking on active roles to help their fathers in the White House. "A fair number throughout our history have stepped up to help the president," McBride said in an interview with ABC News. "It wouldn't be unusual for a first child to step out, but this may be different if she is directly in charge of an initiative," she added. Though the Trump transition team has yet to announce what role, if any, Ivanka Trump may play in the future administration, she and her husband Jared Kushner have been house-hunting in Washington.
