Donald Trump's big mouth has certainly been known to get him into hot water — and the latest person he's ticked off, according to New York, is his daughter, Ivanka.
According to "three sources close to the campaign," even Trump's own flesh and blood was upset by his comments about Mexican immigrants being rapists. One of Ivanka's friends told New York that she "is sensible enough to know a problematic situation." Two other anonymous sources told New York that Ivanka went as far as to submit drafts of an apology statement of sorts to her dad, hoping he'd dial back on the anti-immigrant sentiments. But "Donald didn't like it," New York reports, and he refused to have them published.
Ivanka declined to comment to New York on the matter — although one can imagine she's rolling her eyes and groaning, "Daaaad."
