in terms of ivanka trump, she doesn't have an actual official title, correct? >> no, not yet. >> in the white house. but clearly she has an important role for donald trump. i mean, she's somebody who has his ear and is a very, is a major buzz. >> we don't know if she's going to have an office in the west wing. she's decided at least now, let jared go work there, but eventually whether she's inside the white house or remains outside the white house, she is going to be her father's gut check. there's no doubt about it. he leans on her. he listens to her. she offers her advice freely. they don't always agree, as she said, in the piece. but i think she will always be there when he, when he wants somebody to say, what do you think about this? because she is so loyal, and she has no other agenda as family members are. that is what he thinks is so important. >> well, and obviously, he prizes loyalty. some have been critical of the role jared kushner, ivanka trump play, why shouldn't a president have people who he feels are loyal to him and who are more loyal than his

but i don't sense it's about power with ivanka. it's about impact. >> reporter: and it's about the family. protecting and enhancing the newest brand, the trump presidency. >> you value family, especially in that world. for years we had always heard real estate is one of those cutthroat industries in the world. nothing compared to politics. it's nothing compared to politics. and then i think when you go through that and you live through it, i think quite frankly you become a closer family than ever before. they're the closest people in your life, the people who will look out for you while others might have conflicting interests. that's very special. we all lend that in a certain way, and ivanka will lend that in a big way. she has a great way of being able to talk to him. he trusts her. she's proven herself time and time again in business. whatever she decides to do in washington, you know, if there is a role for her, i'm sure it will be similar to that. but that's really up to her. >> joining us now is the host of the special, glor

ivanka mayich there, who was mistaken by donald trump four ivanka trump. as you do. one of donald trump's closest advisers has told the bbc that the us would win a trade war with china. antony scaramucci added that the current trade relationship was more favourable to china than the us. but in one town in america's rust—belt, it's a company with roots in china that's actually creating jobs. laura trevelyan went for a look. this is donald trump's america now. like so many small towns across the nation, he ran here with a promise to bring backjobs. somewhat surprisingly, though, the factory is a company with its headquarters in china. fuyao moved into a plant at general motors closed down, making windshields where cars once rolled off the assembly line. on this ohio factory floor, donald trump's anti— globalisation campaign rhetoric meets the reality. this chinese managed company is determined to become the biggest manufacturer of car windshields in the world. our goal is to become number one, and to achieve the goal you have to combine all of the resources, the ma
