Ivanka Trump Working Really Hard to Prove She Wants NOTHING to do With Her Twice-Indicted Father

By

Ivanka Trump is still maintaining radio science regarding defending dear old Dad as his legal problems continue to build. Her brothers Eric, and Donald Trump Jr. have been steadily defending their father, even as the former president now faces 37 federal charges over allegations that he illegally retained classified documents after leaving the White House. He also stands accused of obstructing attempts to retrieve these highly sensitive documents from his Mar-a-Lago residence. Trump, of course, denies no wrongdoing.

Eric and Don Jr. have been venting their spleens on social media, either trying to brown-nose dear old Dad or maybe they really are upset. Who knows?

But Ivanka? Nope. She’s keeping to herself and hasn’t commented on social media or released a statement about her dad’s indictment. She’s been out and about since her father’s indictment was announced and was photographed with her husband Jared Kushner in Miami over the weekend, according to Mail Online.

When her dad was president, Ivanka served as a senior adviser in her father’s administration, but since he left office, put plenty of distance between herself, her father, and politics in general. On her social media pages, there’s no mention of the latest indictment news.

Ivanka Trump, who served as a senior adviser in her father’s administration, has distanced herself from politics since her father’s departure from the White House. Her social media pages appear to make no mention or reference to the latest indictment news.

The last thing Ivanka posted was a photo on June 3, of her and her husband at the wedding of Jordan’s Crown Prince Al Hussein bin Abdullah and Princess Rajwa al Hussein, in Amman. She shared a similar post on Instagram.

Her older brothers, however, got pretty feisty over Dad’s fall from grace.

Don Jr. shared a promotional video about his father, and he captioned it: “No matter what BS the establishment pulls to try and destroy him, he will NEVER stop fighting to Make America Great Again.”

He also commented on other social media posts discussing his father’s indictment. In one tweet, he noted: “We’re living in a 3rd world Banana Republican and the only way to stop what the corrupt Biden DOJ is doing to put @realDonaldTrump back in the White House.”

Frankly, that sounds a little bit nuts.

Meanwhile, Brother Eric has been venting his feelings by retweeting comments from Ohio Rep. Jim Jordan and 2024 presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy.

On the day of Trump’s indictment, Jordan tweeted, “Sad day for America. God Bless President Trump.”

Ugh.

As for Ramaswamy, he tweeted the following:

While her brothers may be vocal in their support of their father, Ivanka has definitely put the brakes on her relationship with her dad. However, some legal experts think her efforts to do this may be too little, too late.

Legal Analyst and attorney Andrew Lieb, in a May interview with Newsweek, discussed her decision to part company with attorneys representing her brother while bringing in a new legal team. Ivanka is currently named as a defendant in New York State Attorney General Letitia James’ whopper $250 million fraud case against the Trump Organization.

Some legal experts have considered that Ivanka Trump has been attempting to distance herself from her family’s legal troubles.

“It’s a little late in the game for her to be rebranding, although it makes a lot of sense from a legal perspective,” according to Lieb.

“Having all of these people—when it comes to Trump, Donald Jr., Eric, and Ivanka—with the same lawyer, there could end up being a conflict of interest issues.”

“I think there’s probably something going on here where there’s infighting because I find that families all love each other until they’re all liable for $250 million.”

It’s understandable that Ivanka may have her claws out. She’s in a precarious position, and perhaps unlike Eric, and Don Jr., she knows it.
