Donald Trump Is Reportedly Still Begging Jared and Ivanka to Join Him for His 2024 Announcement Toni
Donald Trump Is Reportedly Still Begging Jared and Ivanka to Join Him for His 2024 Announcement Tonight
Earlier this week, we learned that as a wedding present to his daughter Tiffany and her new husband, Michael Boulos, Donald Trump gave a father-of-the-bride speech about how he was too cheap to pay for a tent at Mar-a-Lago in case of rain. Now, it’s been revealed how else he showed his fourth child and second daughter he cares: by spending her big day begging Jared Kushner and Ivanka Trump to appear with him onstage when he announces his third run for office.
Yes, according to the New York Post, Trump devoted part of Tiffany’s nuptials to “trying to convince his much-loved elder daughter” and her husband to literally and figuratively back him during his expected 2024 announcement Tuesday night. And, much like Tiffany trying to get him to show her some affection as a child, he was apparently rebuffed.
“Trump thought he could convince Ivanka this weekend to come back and campaign for him as she was the most requested speaker after the president himself last time around…but so far she’s resisting his entreaties and holding firm, as is Jared,” said a source familiar with the family affair, seemingly suggesting Trump still believes they could change their minds and show up at the eleventh hour. “They both feel they got burned in Washington and don’t want to go back and expose themselves and their children to another bitter campaign.” The outlet notes that Javanka’s refusal to get involved has led to “extra behind-the-scenes tension": Don Jr. and Eric Trump are “all in on yet another White House bid,” as are their partners, Kimberly Guilfoyle and Lara Trump, the latter of whom regularly appears on Fox News to offer her totally unbiased opinion on her father-in-law’s affairs.
As the Post notes, “Jared and Ivanka were hardly Mr. and Mrs. Popularity while working on Trump’s two prior presidential campaigns and in his administration,” and were known for always being on a well-timed vacation when s--t really hit the fan. The duo also earned a considerable amount of (and entirely well-deserved!) ire when it was reported that Kushner’s response to the prospect of thousands of New Yorkers dying from COVID-19 was “that’s their problem”—a quote that led to a billboard in the middle of Times Square basically telling the couple to go f--k themselves. For her part, Ivanka’s decision to initially address the violent rioters storming the Capitol on January 6 as “patriots,” before apparently realizing how bad it looked, was received about as well. As was the news that the pair allegedly refused to let their Secret Service detail use any of the six and a half (six and a half!) toilets in their DC mansion, forcing the individuals tasked with protecting their lives to go to extreme lengths “to find a bathroom.”
