Ivanka Trump and her husband are reportedly trying to distance themselves from Donald Trump’s incessant claims that he was cheated out of the election.
12 former members of Trump’s administration, as well as friends, have reportedly told CNN that Ivanka and Kushner have not been around Trump as much as they had been previously been.
One source told CNN: “They weren’t around for the usual spring and summer events at Mar-a-Lago.” Another claimed that Ivanka is now attempting to spend more time with her children and steer clear of politics including Trump’s baseless conspiracy theories.
However, many have been quick to criticise Ivanka for this move as, although she didn’t explicitly support any of the conspiracy theories, she did share and then delete a tweet calling those involved in the 6th January capitol riots “American Patriots.”
The anti-Trump Republican activist group The Lincoln Group said that “there can be no second act for Donald Trump’s enablers.”
The sins of the father are to be laid upon the children — and rightfully so.

Ivanka and Jared stood by and watched as Americans died. There can be no second act for Donald Trump’s enablers. https://t.co/QOm8Wh0tw6
Many others echoed their thoughts, including Trump’s former lawyer Michael Cohen.
As #DonaldTrump @IvankaTrump and @jaredkushner’s relationship strain, you can bet that Donald will throw Jared “under the bus” as the DA’s case heats up! Stay tuned folks…family fireworks about to be ignited for our viewing entertainment!!! https://t.co/6eiqKh5T5x

Good luck with that. They were in the middle of the corruption for a full 4 years. We will not forget.

The CNN report also states that Trump has begun to question the role Kushner played in his presidency. But some have brushed off these claims as he is used to the occasional Trump outburst and criticism and “knows Trump acknowledges his successes.”
