White House aides reportedly have a nickname for Ivanka Trump: 'Princess royal'

Ivanka Trump, President Donald Trump's eldest daughter and top adviser, is reportedly referred to as "princess royal" by some White House aides — at least behind her back —according to a new Vanity Fair report.

The first daughter's lofty — and, critics say, unearned — position in her father's administration has sparked frustration among some aides, who say she and her husband, senior adviser Jared Kushner, are ineffectual additions to the president's team.

Some are put off by the Trump family's nepotism. Critics were incensed when Ivanka temporarily took her father's seat at a meeting of the G-20 in Germany earlier this summer.

"Excuse me," one former Trump adviser told Vanity Fair. "This is not a royal family, and she's not the princess royal."

White House advisers have reportedly taken to calling Ivanka by this nickname behind her back.

Jules: They don't call it a Quarter Pounder with cheese?

Vincent: No man, they got the metric system. They wouldn't know what the fuck a Quarter Pounder is.

Jules: Then what do they call it?

Vincent: They call it a Royale with cheese.
