Trump denies questioning VP's allegiance, says Pence is '100% loyal'
https://www.cnn.com/2018/11/17/politics/trump-mike-pence-loyalty/index.html
Washington (CNN)President Donald Trump said Saturday that he does not question the loyalty of Vice President Mike Pence and slammed The New York Times for publishing a story suggesting that he had.
"No, I don't question his loyalty at all. He is 100% loyal. It was a phony story," Trump told reporters at the White House as he departed for California.
"Mike Pence is 100%," Trump said. "Not even a doubt about it in my mind. He's been a trooper. He's been with me from as soon as I won the primaries. I could not be happier."
Trump claimed the Times "never called me for a comment" before publishing a story Friday that reported the President had asked confidants whether they thought Pence was loyal to him.

Did they give up, or did they discover it was Ivanka and decide to keep that quiet?

Let's start a rumor that Pence, Whitaker and Don Junior wrote the infamous op-ed.
