Donald Trump lashing out at Ivanka over her absence from 2024 campaign trail, claim insiders

WASHINGTON, DC: With Election Day drawing near, tension is running high in the Trump camp as polls indicate a razor-thin race between Donald Trump and Kamala Harris. 

While the GOP nominee might sound confident while addressing crowds at his campaign events, according to some insiders, he has been openly expressing doubts about his chances of returning to the White House. 

Moreover, his frustrations with his eldest daughter, Ivanka Trump, who has chosen to steer clear of his campaign, seem to be boiling over, adding a family dimension to his campaign's challenges.

Donald Trump has apparently expressed doubts about his chances of victory to close advisors 

According to political commentator Brian Krassenstein, Donald Trump has been openly expressing doubts about his chances of victory to close advisors, suggesting a unique and potentially divisive strategy.

On Sunday, October 27, Krassenstein took to X (formerly Twitter) to share alleged text messages from sources within the GOP nominee's campaign.

He wrote, "According to Trump Campaign insiders, Trump appears to be telling his own advisers that he doesn’t think he will win this election and that his only true path to victory is to make people think that he is going to win so that when he challenges the results, those challenges have more merit." 

The anonymous source described Trump’s potential move to create an illusion of victory if the actual results don’t go his way. 

This, as explained by Krassenstein, might be the former president's attempt to set a foundation for challenging the election results, claiming fraud if he comes out as the loser.

"Seems as if things are pretty bad in the Trump campaign right now. I can't believe that Trump appears to once again be relying on the notion that the election is rigged to try and sneak his way back into the most important office on the planet," shared Krassenstein. 

Trump's frustration, partly stemming from President Joe Biden’s unexpected withdrawal from the race, has only grown.

The POTUS, who initially planned to run, stepped aside amid health concerns, leaving Trump to face Harris, a younger and arguably more energetic opponent. 

This development, while adding new dynamics to the race, has reportedly rattled the MAGA spearhead, who sees Harris as a formidable challenger.

Meanwhile, sources close to Harris' campaign have echoed similar concerns, with whispers that Biden himself had doubts about the vice president's chances of winning.

Krassenstein, however, cautioned that these allegations lack substantial proof and could easily have been fabrications, considering the unverifiable nature of such messages.

"Just like the random text message floating around claiming that Biden thinks Harris is going to lose, this text message could have been sent by anyone on the planet to anyone on the planet and has absolutely no merit what-so-ever," warned Krassenstein. 

Donald Trump allegedly used the 'B-word' to describe Ivanka Trump over her absence from his 2024 campaign

While navigating the complex terrain of a high-stakes election, Donald Trump seems to be also grappling with personal frustrations.

Ivanka, who was a highly visible figure during his 2016 campaign and subsequent presidency, has chosen not to campaign alongside her father this time.

This decision has reportedly left Trump feeling abandoned, particularly as he is noted for relying heavily on family support throughout his political career.

According to Krassenstein, the ex-POTUS has gone as far as using harsh language to describe his daughter, allegedly referring to her in derogatory terms over her absence from his campaign.

In his tweet, the political commentator added, "He’s apparently using the B-word to describe his own daughter, Ivanka Trump, because she hasn't spent enough time campaigning for him this election cycle."

Ivanka’s priorities have shifted significantly since her father's 2016 presidential run.

A mother of three and former senior White House advisor, Ivanka has stepped back from politics, focusing on her family and a quieter life out of the spotlight.

A source familiar with the Trump family’s dynamics revealed, "She is very happy, living her best life. She has completely moved on from politics, and even though her dad is the leading Republican candidate this time, she really doesn’t care," as per OK! Magazine. 

Ivanka, who dedicated four years to her father’s administration, reportedly made it clear she was not interested in participating in another campaign.

When Trump announced his candidacy, Ivanka allegedly informed him of her decision to refrain from campaigning, prioritizing her family and personal peace over the pressures of public life.
