My Theory As To Why Ivanka And Jared Plan To Stay In D.C. Awhile....

Last edited Fri Jul 27, 2018, 03:48 AM - Edit history (1)

I think Ivanka senses that the walls are closing in on Trump with respect to the Mueller investigation, Putin and Russian collusion, Cohen flipping, more tapes, and today the word that Trump knew about the Trump Tower meeting.

I also think that Ivanka knows that Trump in order to save himself will throw anybody under the bus - even his kids.

With this in mind I think Ivanka and Jared want to be very near Trump during this time and give him all the support they can - so Trump doesn't throw them under the bus.

Do you think I'm on to something here?

I suspect that's their very dumb strategy.

I imagine they have lost a lot of "friends" there.

IvanRed is planning a political run of their own, I think.

But it would benefit them to keep themselves somewhat safe with Trump. Keep his ear, so to speak. Though I can't help but think Trump would throw his sons under the bus before Ivanka.

Who really knows how their warped minds work though? I think of them as an intertwined tangle of sickness. I can also see the siblings all vying to be on daddy's good side and all willing to sell out each other - even make up shit - just to jockey positions up and down.

so we need to reposition ourselves. Jared's innovative Middle East peace plan, his solution of America's opioid epidemic, his reform of the VA and criminal justice system, his re-invention of our entire American government, and his exciting diplomatic progress in China and Mexico have helped reshape us both into natural and beloved political leaders as I plan my run for the Presidency, which promises a new era in world history as America looks forward to becoming an important part of the Russian Federation"

it reminds me of the scene in The Maltese Falcon when Bogart devises the plan to let Elisha Cook Jr. take the fall for everything.

Or Fredo saying the Hail Mary so he can catch a fish out on Tahoe.

A 12 year old will be easy to frame because he's too young to defend himself.

I also don't think there would be a warm welcome for them in NY. All sorts of doors slammed in their faces.

Ivanka has spent her life around Trump. She knows who he is and has excused it all her life. Why, now that he places her within inches of all the power in the world, would she walk now.

I don't think Trump would turn on her. At least not publicly.

Knowing they will be indicting Jared very soon, and they're trying to hide their money and get it for her business before it all collapses on them, and Jared will do time , but I think they both know he'll turn on them to save himself in a heartbeat, so they both will be talking to Mueller , if not already talking to him, but they both know its almost over for them and her Dad. Many will be turning against him, even his own family. They hate him, and ivanke is so cold like him towards others, will do the same to him.

It does not matter what she may be doing for him or to him he will throw her under and get his followers to feel he plays tough love on his daughter when she does wrong. They will feel sorry for her that she has a problem with being a criminal but proud their dictator made sure his daughter is getting properly punished. He could care less about Jared.

16. Yes. Quite possibly. Also they know they can't go back to their former life in NY.
