I saw how people around the world see America: a beacon of opportunity, stability and strength in a world of uncertainty. America’s historic role has been just that. America, as President Kennedy once described it ‘has always been a lantern in the dark for those who love freedom but are persecuted, in misery, or in need.’”

The news reminded Kim of her trip to the White House where she wore Jackie Kennedy Onassis’ watch which she bought at an auction in 2017. According to HollywoodLife, the watch had an estimated price of $395,000.
“It gave me some power: Let's get in there and get this done," Kim said. Her sister has the possibility of dating someone powerful like Schlossberg, but it is not certain that Kendall will pay him any attention.
