Before deleting the tweet, Ivanka wrote the following: “American Patriots-any security breach or disrespect to our law enforcement is unacceptable. The violence must stop immediately. Please be peaceful.” She wrote the comment in response to her father telling Trump supporters to support Capitol police and law enforcement.
However, CNN correspondent Kate Bennett caught wind of the tweet and said “You’re saying these people are ‘patriots’ ?? But Ivanka claimed she was misunderstood in the tweet and replied, “No. Peaceful protest is patriotic. Violence is unacceptable and must be condemned in the strongest terms.”
