Which moron said it was a good idea to let businessmen run the government?
Jared Kushner, son-in-law and senior adviser to President Donald Trump, unsuccessfully sought a financing deal from a wealthy Qatari investor to save his family’s troubled midtown Manhattan building, according to a Monday report from The Intercept.
And there we have it. Foreign policy based on the Trump Family’s personal business projects. Just another impeachable offense.
Follow the crooks’ money…
All this…because every single one of them …Trump, Jared, Donald Jr., Ivanka, and Eric, are incompetent business people. If not for unethical or illegal behavior, they wouldn’t be anywhere.
Kushner and his father, Charles, were in negotiations with HBJ throughout 2015 and 2016, according to the report.
So the convicted felon was involved as well?
This whole thing, this whole nightmare of an administration is one big grift being pulled off by a bunch of sleazy, scummy hucksters who have proven they can’t succeed without doing unethical and immoral deeds. I soothe myself to sleep at night imagining them all going to jail, bankrupt.
NY is a big financial center. Can’t they get money locally?

“Love that Speedy Cash!”
“666 Fifth Avenue in Manhattan is in significant financial trouble, as the tower does not bring in enough revenue to pay off the family’s debts.”
Sure, they lose hundreds of millions on every single business venture – but they make it up in volume.
NO WONDER Daddy Trump likes him. He can scuttle around the world seeking financing and then screw them over when they declare bankruptcy. WHAT A BUSINESS MODEL!!!
The extended Trump Crime Family fails to get a bail-out from Qatar, and then Trump immediately turns around and takes stronger stance against Qatar.
The swamp is backing up and overflowing, Donnie.
I know enormously overbidding with other people’s money, but how the %$#@@#%^$ do you manage to do a deal in the middle of %$^%$^# midtown manhattan where you can’t get enough pricey tenants to cover your mortgage? I mean, that’s like not being able to run a casino profitably in Atlantic City…
Oh. Wait.
… to which the Trumpire will argue that America signed off on such arrangements when a minority of the popular vote put Dear Leaker into office. Just waiting to see how far He will push the presidential prerogative.
I keed, I keed … but seriously, Richard Pious at Columbia has a few books out on the subject. I must reed, I must reed 
We have a brand new definition of radical Islamic jihadis: Arabs who decline to bail out Jared Kushner.
No one knew that leaping from running trailer parks and low income housing in New Jersey to buying a midtown highrise for $1.8 billion would be so complicated.
Nice address, ‘666’, heh heh heh.
Secretary of State Rex Tillerson believed that United Arab Emirates ambassador Yousef Al Otaiba, a friend of Kushner’s, was behind Trump’s statement opposing Qatar.
Well, that and the fact that neither HBJ nor anyone else from Qatar would give Boy Wonder the financing he needed for the bad deal he was in.
I’m curious to know if Jared has given personal guarantee on the 666 financing. that would be delish…
