7. Regarding Ivanka, I don't understand the reports

that she begged TFG to stop the mob violence. If she was aware of the planning for this as much as the others in Trump's circle, did she really think that no violence would come of it? Had she recognized that the coup was failing before Trump did? Or was she concerned about the negative image that the Capitol attack was projecting around the country and around the world? Surely she knew that the coup plan included weapons for a siege and continued fighting past 1/6. Was she hoping for a bloodless coup?
