Jared Kushner reportedly avoided Trump after the January 6 Capitol riot.
"We'll just get in a fight if I go" to the White House, Kushner told a Republican lawmaker on January 7.
That's according to a forthcoming book by ABC News' Jonathan Karl.
After the Capitol riot on January 6, Jared Kushner said he avoided going to the White House and seeing then-President Donald Trump, according to a forthcoming book by ABC News correspondent Jonathan Karl.
"We'll just get in a fight if I go over there," Kushner, Trump's son-in-law who was then also working as his senior aide, told a Republican lawmaker the day after the riot, per the book.
The scene comes in Karl's book, "Betrayal: The Final Act of the Trump Show," which is set to publish on Tuesday. Insider obtained an early copy of the book.
Kushner had been flying back to the nation's capital from Saudi Arabia when the riot began. But when he landed at Joint Base Andrews, he went "straight home," per the book. Secret Service agents had warned that it'd be "dangerous" for him to go to the White House, Kushner later told people, according to the book.
