WASHINGTON – President Donald Trump's eldest daughter is not on board with the Green New Deal.

Ivanka Trump, who also serves as a senior White House adviser, specifically has a problem with the proposed environmental initiative's call for the federal government to guarantee a job for all Americans.

"I don’t think most Americans, in their heart, want to be given something," Trump said in an excerpt from an interview on Fox News' "The Next Revolution with Steve Hilton." The full interview is scheduled to air on Sunday.

"I’ve spent a lot of time traveling around this country over the last four years. People want to work for what they get," Trump said when asked about the proposed progressive guarantee.

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio Cortez, D-N.Y., who was one of the Green New Deal resolution sponsors, responded to Trump's remarks in a tweet on Tuesday.

"As a person who actually worked for tips & hourly wages in my life, instead of having to learn about it 2nd-hand, I can tell you that most people want to be paid enough to live," Cortez said.

"A living wage isn’t a gift, it’s a right. Workers are often paid far less than the value they create."

Much of the criticism that has been leveled at the Green New Deal's ideaswere part of a Frequently Asked Questions summary from Rep. Alexandria Ocasio Cortez's office but were not included in the actual resolution. The call for universal employment was one of the most controversial proposals to be in both the FAQ and the resolution.

One of the ways the resolution says it plans to achieve the goals of the Green New Deal is "guaranteeing a job with a family-sustaining wage, adequate family and medical leave, paid vacations, and retirement security to all people of the United States."

Conservatives have attacked the proposal as unaffordable and unworkable.

Trump said "this idea of a guaranteed minimum is not something most people want. They want the ability to be able to secure a job. They want the ability to live in a country where there’s the potential for upward mobility."

While she may not support guaranteed employment, Trump has been an advocate for paid family leave.

Ocasio-Cortez, the youngest woman ever elected to Congress and a self-described Democratic Socialist, has rapidly become the face of a leftward swing for the Democratic party.

When asked about the apparent growing appeal of socialist policies and the role they might play in the 2020 election, Trump pointed to the economic growth under the first two years of her father's administration.

"I think fundamentally if you ask yourself the question, 'Are we better today than we were yesterday, or we were two years ago?' the answer is undoubtedly yes," she said.

"America is doing very well and it stands in quite sharp contrast to the rest of the world. So, not only are we doing well but much of the world has slowed down in terms of the pace of their growth. And our policies are continuing to allow this economy to thrive."
