- Donald Trump needed to satisfy Hillary Clinton after the 2016 election, per Jared Kushner’s upcoming memoir.
- Trump needed to determine a “cordial relationship” with Clinton, per the memoir, seen by The Hill.
- He modified his thoughts when Clinton supported Jill Stein’s election recount, Kushner writes.
Donald Trump requested his daughter Ivanka to get him a gathering with Hillary Clinton shortly after the 2016 presidential election, in line with Jared Kushner’s upcoming memoir.
Kushner, Trump’s son-in-law, writes that the previous president needed to determine a “cordial relationship with Hillary to unite the nation” and present that he “had no intention of trying backward,” in line with “Breaking Historical past,” a replica of which was obtained by The Hill.
Kushner’s memoir, which recounts his time as a senior White Home adviser to Trump, is ready to be revealed Tuesday.
Kushner wrote that his father-in-law tasked Ivanka with reaching out to her former pal Chelsea Clinton to type Trump a gathering with each Hillary and Invoice. Trump “informed Ivanka to ask Hillary and Invoice for dinner within the coming weeks,” Kushner wrote, per The Hill.
“Ivanka did name Chelsea,” Kushner wrote, in line with The Hill, “however days later Hillary backed Jill Stein’s problem to the election, and Trump ended his outreach.”
Stein, who was the Inexperienced Social gathering’s presidential nominee, spearheaded a statewide election recount effort in Wisconsin, which the Clinton marketing campaign supported.
Trump’s obvious outreach effort got here after a fractious presidential marketing campaign through which he appeared to encourage supporters to chant “lock her up” about Clinton, and informed Clinton throughout a debate that if he was in cost, she would “be in jail.”
Throughout his presidency, Trump continued to assert his political opponent was a felony, and stated in 2020 that he agreed with the “lock her up” chants “100%.”
