As the violence unfolded at the Capitol, Cheney revealed on ABC News that the January 6 Committee has learned from testimony that Ivanka Trump tried at least twice to get her dad to step in and help stop the violence.
Before the Capitol siege on the morning of January 6, Ivanka was at the White House in the Oval Office with Trump and her brothers Donald Trump Jr. and Eric Trump and White House advisors. She was also in the tent backstage at the rally (via The Washington Post). Ivanka reportedly told aides that she attended the event to try and calm down her father. As the violence continued, reportedly Ivanka was used to try and get Trump to tell the supporters to leave peacefully. The comparison a presidential aide told Philip Rucker and Carol Leonnig, authors of “I Alone Can Fix It” was, “Ivanka was described to me like a stable pony. When the racehorse gets too agitated, you bring the stable pony in to calm him down.”
