In the interview Ivanka Trump, who is also Jewish, was circumspect about the role she will play as assistant to the president \u2013 a title she received last month.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI think most of the impact I have, over time most people will not actually know about,\u201d Ivanka Trump said, according to a report Thursday in the New York Daily News.<\/p>\n<p>Johansson, who campaigned for Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton, interpreted those remarks as meaning \u201cthe greatest change she would make would be behind closed doors and nobody would actually know that she had made this change.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Johansson added: &#8220;How old-fashioned, this idea that behind a great man is a great woman. You can&#8217;t appear to be concerned that someone is going to think that you are bitchy, or a powerful woman. Screw that, it is so old fashioned and it is so uninspired and actually really cowardly.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Johansson recently starred in a parody of Ivanka Trump on &#8220;Saturday Night Live&#8221; featuring a spoof commercial for a perfume called Complicit, suggesting Ivanka Trump is complicit in her father\u2019s policies that critics allege deepen division in society and encourage xenophobia.<\/p>\n<p>Ivanka Trump has rejected the allegation.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf being complicit is wanting to be a force for good and to make a positive impact, then I\u2019m complicit,\u201d she said during the CBS interview.<\/p>\n<p>Ivanka Trump is married to Jared Kushner, like Ivanka an unpaid adviser to the president. Kushner, who heads his family-owned real estate business, grew up in an Orthodox Jewish family. Ivanka Trump converted to Judaism prior to their wedding in 2010.<\/p>\n<div style=\"padding-bottom:20px; padding-top:10px;\" class=\"hupso-share-buttons\"><!-- Hupso Share Buttons - https:\/\/www.hupso.com\/share\/ --><a class=\"hupso_toolbar\" href=\"https:\/\/www.hupso.com\/share\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-src=\"https:\/\/static.hupso.com\/share\/buttons\/share-medium.png\" style=\"border:0px; padding-top: 5px; float:left;\" alt=\"Share Button\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" class=\"lazyload\" \/><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/static.hupso.com\/share\/buttons\/share-medium.png\" style=\"border:0px; padding-top: 5px; float:left;\" alt=\"Share Button\"\/><\/noscript><\/a><script type=\"text\/javascript\">var hupso_services_t=new Array(\"Twitter\",\"Facebook\",\"Google Plus\",\"Pinterest\",\"Linkedin\",\"Tumblr\",\"Email\");var hupso_background_t=\"#EAF4FF\";var hupso_border_t=\"#66CCFF\";var hupso_toolbar_size_t=\"medium\";var hupso_image_folder_url = \"\";var hupso_url_t=\"\";var hupso_title_t=\"Scarlett%20Johansson%20slams%20Ivanka%20Trump%20as%20%27cowardly%27\";<\/script><script type=\"text\/javascript\" src=\"https:\/\/static.hupso.com\/share\/js\/share_toolbar.js\"><\/script><!-- Hupso Share Buttons --><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"ngg_post_thumbnail":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[7139,25],"tags":[3862,8790,8795,8788,8439],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.crescentcityjewishnews.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/35807"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.crescentcityjewishnews.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.crescentcityjewishnews.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.crescentcityjewishnews.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.crescentcityjewishnews.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=35807"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.crescentcityjewishnews.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/35807\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":35808,"href":"https:\/\/www.crescentcityjewishnews.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/35807\/revisions\/35808"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.crescentcityjewishnews.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=35807"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.crescentcityjewishnews.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=35807"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.crescentcityjewishnews.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=35807"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
