From a Washington Post story by Jonathan O’Connell, Josh Dawsey, Shayna Jacobs, and Isaac Arnsdorf headlined “Transformed Trump family will take center stage in New York courtroom”:
Donald Trump had been a pariah on Wall Street for years when a banker in Deutsche Bank’s private wealth department started speaking with his daughter Ivanka. After a number of meetings, the banker emailed a supervisor in 2011 with an important update about the future of the Trump business.
“Ivanka Trump will become a client for sure. She is the heir apparent of this Empire,” wrote the banker, Rosemary Vrablic, according to an email that is part of a filing in a civil case against Trump now underway in New York.
