Fathers administration. Jeff zeleny is outfront in new york. We learned ivanka trump, Jared Kushner are going to move To Washington. Now, thats a pretty stunning thing, right, if you think about the fact ivanka trump said she will have no role in her fathers administration. This is a clear signal shes going to be right by her fathers side. Maybe she doesnt have a technical title. Shes staying in her job at the Trump Organization. What can you tell us . Reporter something they have to work out and sort through. Theyve already had missteps here in the first month of this Transition Meeting with the world leader, the first meeting that her father had with the Prime Minister of japan, and, but erin, its clear that they are still trying to sort through this. The american presidency is not simply set up for a family like this so theyre going to be making the rules as they go along, but we are told they are planning to move To Washington. Theyre looking for houses there at the very least. She
families, they can put money away for college, things like that. it has a big impact with a lot of people. for the president, his son served in iraq and the president s always believed the burn pits in iraq led to his son s brain cancer. for him there s a policy aspect, personal feeling he s making progress on behalf of his son as well. and, chris, lastly, real quick, the president and his team obviously going to maintain their vow of silence about all of the legal issues surrounding donald trump. give us a sense, they have to be pleased with the contrast after trump is making headline after headline and the president doing the people s business. biden basically, he s keeping his head down to keep working on the issues that matter to people. getting attention is going to be hard. the country is riveted.
historic. and paula, we have both covered trump, and your job as a white house reporter is to observe the president s mannerisms and every move beyond the policy aspect, and to hear evan report that he had the hands folded and periodically speaking to todd blanche, and he is taking lead, and what stuck out to you? i say that i m a lawyer turned journalist, and president trump is the greatest beat, because he is always raising constitutional issues, but they have never caught up to him, and the second time, of course, the case in manhattan, but the first time criminal charges have been filed against a former president, and that it is trump is not terribly surprising, because he has been twice impeached and history over decades, right, of being sued, of having these investigations,
