Ivanka Trump and jared kushner are allegedly balking at mounting pressure from the president to leave Washington, D.C. This news comes from a report published by Vanity Fair's The Hive on Wednesday. According to the article, "Javanka" aren't safe from President Trump's current path of replacing his senior-level staff.
'Javanka' aren't caving in
Next on President Trump's list of firings is speculated to be National Security Adviser H.R. McMaster and Attorney General Jeff Sessions. He already terminated Secretary of State Rex Tillerson via Twitter amid his firing spree.
It's unknown how long Chief of Staff John Kelly is going to stick around, but sources from within are telling The Hive that Donald Trump wants Ivanka "out of there."
“Trump wants them out of there. He thinks they’ve been getting hit too hard,”a friend of the president told the magazine.
Apparently, Ivanka Trump and Jared Kushner are "digging in" despite the heat they're allegedly getting from the president. Kushner, who serves as Trump's senior adviser, doesn't think they have anything to lose staying right where they are. A person claiming to have spoken with Kushner recently shared what he had to say.
“They’ve damaged us so much already. What else can they say about us?” Kushner allegedly said.
“And if we go back to New York, they’ll keep attacking. So what do we have to lose?”
Sources predict an exit soon
As uncertainties surround the fate of Ivanka and Jared, speculation persists. A separate article by The Hive on Sunday contained multiple sources familiar with the West Wing drama -- some described as friends of the Trumps.
The general consensus among insiders is that Javanka will be going back to New York in the near future.
A scenario being dreamed up has to do with Jared going back to to manage Trump's 2020 re-election campaign. One Trip friend is calling it a “soft landing.” Ivanka is expected to stick around through the summer and then enroll their kids in a private Manhattan school.
The arrangement won't interfere with Ivanka and Jared remaining in close contact with Trump by virtue of the fact that he strongly values their opinions. Sources add that Ivanka Trump and Jared Kushner want to stay in Washington as long as possible so it doesn't appear that John Kelly "railroaded them out of the West Wing." Tensions among the three of them are rumored to be rocky at best. Kelly recently downgraded Kushner's security clearance, which upset Ivanka. She thought he was "embarrassing" Jared in a power move.
