Re “Ivanka Trump Steps Up on the World Stage, to Mixed Reviews” (news article, July 2):

Having Ivanka Trump take part in official meetings and events during the president’s Asia trip is like putting one of the United States soccer coaches’ kids out on the field for a Women’ s World Cup match. Amateurs should stay in the stands and let the professionals use their skills and experience to influence the outcome of the game.
