Yikes! Apparently Ivanka Trump was present in the Oval Office for a “pretty heated” phone call between her father and the former Vice President, with the details regarding the days before the insurrection becoming more and more interesting…. Here’s what we know:
As reported by The Independent, Tim O’Brien, author of TrumpNation: The Art of Being The Donald, has recently suggested that the former president’s eldest daughter Ivanka had a “bad feeling” about pressure her father was reportedly putting on Mike Pence in the days leading up to January 6, 2021.
Clips of Ivanka Trump’s testimony were played at the public hearings regarding the Capitol riots. We’ve also heard from them, as Oliver O’Connell for The Independent writes, that Donald Trump was repeatedly told that his scheme to get former Vice President Pence to “send back electors to the states— in the hope of overturning the election result— was illegal.”

Members of staff close to the former president and his daughter — his “body man” Nick Luna, and her chief of staff, Julie Radford — also claim Mr. Trump called his vice president a “wimp” and a “p—y”.
In the weeks since the hearing, the former president denied calling Pence a wimp, before then implying that Pence didn’t have the courage to do what Trump wanted.
Last week, at a conference in Nashville, TN held by the Faith and Freedom Coalition, Trump said to the crowd, “I never called Mike Pence a wimp.” Trump continued, “I never called him a wimp. Mike Pence had a chance to be great. He had a chance to be, frankly, historic.” Mhmm….
