Seems so

And if so, why have her do it, why not send a secretary?
You said yourself...the state department is understaffed.

Then don't toss it. I asked on what basis you think she can be trusted?
It's unlikely that a party-planning task would present her with an opportunity to act unethically.

Apparently whoever does the official security clearance stuff disagrees with you on that
There are other reasons a security clearance might be denied.

Nice spin job.
You made it really easy

So first the meeting wasn't important enough that it mattered that Ivanka was doing it.
Right

Now, it's a good thing she's around to do this important task for the president who's failed to fill a number of important posts
Why did you use the word "important" there. It's not an important task. It's an inconsequential but necessary task. The kind that an understaffed state department would be eager to delegate.

Which is it?
