Ivanka Trump slammed the media for not widely reporting on the violence seen in Washington, D.C., this weekend against supporters of President Trump.
“The media’s near total silence about the physical violence being perpetrated against conservatives is shameful & dangerous. Just image [sic] the outrage and indignation if this went the other way,” the first daughter tweeted.
“Violence is never the answer and instigators must be condemned and prosecuted,” she concluded.

Others echoed Ivanka Trump, including her brother, Donald Trump Jr.
“The media’s silence on the violence against Trump supporters is deafening. After four years of calling them Nazis, at this point they might as well just dox them all or add the AOC’s lists for the Gulags,” he tweeted. “They are complicit in the violence. They are the worst of the worst.”

Others also erupted on Twitter this weekend asking why President-elect Joe Biden hadn’t condemned the violence, considering his vow to unify the country.
“When is Joe Biden, Mr. Unity, going to condemn this violence,” Republican Missouri Sen. Josh Hawley tweeted in response to a video of antifa and Black Lives Matter counterprotesters attacking Trump supporters.

This is BLM and Antifa. And they are @JoeBiden supporters. Biden hasn’t condemned them – look at the videos. https://t.co/Tyy7oQLRPl

A week after saying he wants to unite the country, @JoeBiden doesn’t even post a tweet condemning Antifa, BLM, and agitators attacking @realDonaldTrump supporters for legitimately peaceful protests.
