Ivanka Trump says she does not believe father’s claim 2020 election was stolen
The Guardian ^ | 9th June 2022

Posted on 06/09/2022 9:17:37 PM PDT by Cronos

The committee investigating January 6 and the attack on Congess opened with bombshell video footage on Thursday that showed a number of his most trusted aides and advisers, including his daugher Ivanka Trump, explaining that they knew the election was not stolen.

...She spoke of her perspective being changed after hearing that Bill Barr, who was Trump’s attorney general for most of 2020, until he resigned that December, had explained to her father repeatedly that he had lost the election.

“I respect Attorney General Barr. So I accepted what he was saying,” Ivanka Trump told congressional investigators.

The committee showed a video of Barr’s appearance before panel investigators. In that video, Barr called his former boss’s fraud claims “bullshit” and said that he had “repeatedly told the president in no uncertain terms that I did not see evidence of fraud that would have affected the outcome of the election. And frankly, a year and a half later, I still haven’t.”

He added that he told the president at the time that there was “zero basis” for his allegations that the election was rigged against him.

Barr said he spoke to Donald Trump shortly after the November 2020 result and “I made it clear to him that I did not agree with the idea of saying the election was stolen, and putting out this stuff, which I told the president was bullshit, and I didn’t want to be a part of it.”

Methinks plastic bits from her store bought titties have migrated and blocked critical blood flow to her brain.

Or maybe too much Botox leakage number her brain.

She couldn’t be bothered to watch 2,000 Mules?

She and Jared are a selfish pair with their own agenda. They want to be reinvited into polite society, attend the best parties, mingle with the hottest celebs, and have their kids attend top Ivy League schools.

Neither Ivanka or Jared give a damn about working class Americans losing their jobs to illegal immigrants and outsourcing, their neighborhoods filling up with hood rats, and their schools filling up with CRT and foreign kids who don't speak English.

The Kushners are Winners (via the birth lottery), and don't give a damn about Losers.

I've long said, a vile pair.

Trump is surrounded with ingrates who are ready to toss him under the bus.

Well I just hope Jarred and Ivanka aren’t invited to work at the White House if President Trump resumes his rightful place in the Oval.

To: Seeing More Clearly Now
If you compare Obama's record 2008 turnout by county with Biden's 2020 "turnout" by county, and sort the counties by descending population in the state, you will see Biden besting Obama's performance down the list - until there is no return on turning out "voters" in those smaller counties.

Then, Obama 2008 starts beating Biden 2020 like a drum.

In 2016, you didn't see that pattern for Hillary. It was larger turnout in known Democrat strongholds.

In 2020, they focused on higher population counties, period, operating from a computer report. The pattern is quite clear.

She trusts the word of a deepstate plant who had one job, to make sure Trump wouldn’t get a second term.

There was four decades of illegality (such as illegal immigration) that led to Biden’s victory. It was more than just election fraud that enabled Biden to gain power.

She is not quoted as saying she “agreed” that the election was not stolen. She is quoted as saying that she “accepted” the results of the election because Bill Barr asserted that it was not stolen and she respects him. It could simply mean that she decided not to be involved in efforts to overturn the election because Bill Barr, whom she respected, didn’t want to participate.

"“I respect Attorney General Barr. So I accepted what he was saying,” Ivanka Trump told congressional investigators."

All she did was give her opinion about the election. That's it. Her opinion about the election doesn't prove Trump led an insurrection.

She gave them nothing.

In a second Trump term, Ivanka and Jared need to stay in New York, or Florida, or wherever they live these days.

Jared did a good job coming up with peace treaties in the Middle East. If Trump wins the second term, it's going to be a war. Not sure if Jared and Ivanka are up for it, and that's okay. They'll stay in Florida. They're not coming back to New York, other than ocassional visits.

Agreed. As usual, people here are giving a knee-jerk reaction to an out of context snippet of what the media wants people to think someone said. Some people here already despise Ivanka so they are ready to believe the worst about her, but others are just not using their brains—just reacting emotionally to a manipulative sound bite spoon-fed by the media.

I wouldn’t be shocked if that’s what her father advised her to say.

It isn’t her job to judge elections, it’s her job to obey the law, and Bill Barr, whatever his shortcomings or motivations, was the AG at the time.

This committee is a very, very dangerous and dark thing. Why would Trump ask his daughter to do anything other than say what she said?

Barr is an idiot.

Nobody should have to tell him that a number of states
changed their election rules outside the bounds of the
U. S. Constitution.

Every state that had an entity other than their state
legislature change their election laws, was a state
that should have been eliminated from participation in
2020.

Moving on, there were mountains of complaints made by
poll workers, some of them being prevented from legally
participating in the election count, required by law.

Now the 2000 mules movie is out, and it’s is opening
quite a few eyes.

Barr should make a statement that he was dead wrong
to come to the conclusion he did, because sooner or
later it’s going to be obvious to every single citizen
how corrupted that process turned out to be.

So, the opening bombshell of this Stalinistic show trial is to highlight opinions of some of Trump’s family or supporters. That’s it? Really? Where is the evidence of acts of an insurrection?
Here we go again, Mueller and company mudslingers part II.

You know, when I posted, I had thought about Jared and the Abraham Accords but did not mention Jared’s work on those historic peace treaties in my post.

If President Trump were still in office, additional countries would have been signatories to those accords.

No one takes Brandon seriously, including in the Middle East. I doubt if Biden even knows anything about the Abraham Accords.....he probably never heard of them.

.
Barr also knew inherently that Joe Biden innocently took in millions from Foreign countries.

His instincts are Swamp.

That is what I am thinking. Saying anything else opens her up to retaliation.

She is going to give the safe answers while her dad keeps fighting.
