Ivanka Trump, the president’s daughter and a senior adviser to the White House, said she isn’t sure if teachers should be given firearms after the massacre at a Florida high school earlier this month that left 17 people dead. But she remained open to the proposal, saying such plans were “not a bad idea.”
Trump, the mother of three young children, made the comments in an interview with NBC News that aired Sunday during her visit to the Winter Olympics in Pyeongchang, South Korea. Host Peter Alexander asked Trump about her father’s recent proposal to arm some highly-trained educators to prevent school shootings. Such teachers, the president later said, would be given “a little bit of a bonus,” and the new system would help turn schools into “a hardened target.”
After Alexander asked about Trump’s support for the proposal, she said: “To be honest, I don’t know.”
