Ivanka brought Trump and Pence together for 'uncomfortable' meeting after Capitol riot

Five days after the attacks on the Capitol, where some rioters chanted that they wanted to kill Mike Pence, the then-president and vice-president had long a meeting in the Oval Office to patch things over.

Insiders told the Washington Post that meeting was “stilted and uncomfortable,” and Jared Kushner, who had helped arrange the conversation along with Ivanka Trump, compared it to brokering peace in the Middle East.

Mr Trump had privately and publicly pressured Mr Pence to overturn the election results, even though he was told repeatedly he didn’t have the power to do so in his ceremonial role certifying the votes in Congress.

In his speech before his supporters attacked the Capitol, Mr Trump urged the vice-president to do so anyway. However, Mr Pence reportedly is still loyal to the president.

He should have walked into the Oval, sucker punched him, put the boots to him, spit on him, pissed on him, put the boots to him once again, and then called Mother for bail money.

Instead, he puckered up, kissed ass, tucked his tail between his legs and asked for more.

Shame on him.
