It has become clear that those who are not blindly loyal to the president will invite his ire. The media, by virtue of pressuring him to answer for his seemingly endless list of crimes, has done just that. Ivanka’s admission, however, serves as a bold rebuke to an otherwise unified administration.
Perhaps she’ll admit next that her father is clearly more of a threat to the people of this country than those who seek to hold him accountable.
