“Um, look, I wasn’t really involved in that,” Kushner said.
“I know you weren’t. Was it racist?” Swan pressed.
“Like I said, I wasn’t involved in that,” he said. Swan asked again: “I know you weren’t. Was it racist?”
What a lovely couple!
The fact that he didn’t just say “No it wasn’t” is very telling.
“You can’t not be a racist for 69 years, then run for president and be a racist,” he said.
Why not and why not?
“And what I’ll say is that when a lot of the Democrats call the President a racist, I think they’re doing a disservice to people who suffer because of real racism in this country.”
How so?
I can’t remember seeing that before - exhibit almost no body language clues (posture stays cool as a cucumber) while the facial expressions makes squirming so very apparent.
Each time he says “I wasn’t involved in that” he seems to expect that magic phrase will definitively be taken as the answer. But its not. Good on Swan to keep asking - and keep evoking the Kushner grimace.
That was indeed cringey. But even more significant was Kushner’s response, “I don’t know” when asked if he would tell the FBI if the Russians request another meeting.
I would have asked for some evidence that Fat Nixon was in fact not racist for 69 years before he suddenly became a racist.
- There is the DoJ consent decree from the 1960s that Fat Nixon and
his father signed. I’ll grant that they were allowed to deny
wrong-doing in the consent decree, but my recollection of that era
is that DoJ only went after the most egregious violators of the Fair
Housing Act. - There is Donnie Two-Scoops’ behavior in the matter of the Central Park 5 to account for as well,
- There is the matter of the birther nonsense to explain away.
I’m sure this only scratches the surface, but I just showered and I don’t want to get any of that filth on me. Saying, “Nuh-uh, that wasn’t me,” doesn’t absolve your (mob) boss, Jared.
Slightly O.T. It appears to me that Kushner has the most-punchable face in the Fat Nixon Malmisadministration.
I guess creeps evoke cringing.
His wife coached him on what to do and say.
I want to know why BOTH he and his sleazy wife have not been indicted for lying on his Security Clearance form!
Is it just me or does Kushner always seem to display a concerning lack of affective range. Also, the word from those who went to school with this princeling at Harvard is that he’s as dumb as a box of rocks. Nothing I’ve seen since convinces me otherwise.
He’s got dead eyes, a Botoxed face and the same speaking cadence as his Botoxed wife. He thinks he’s very good at humaning, but he doesn’t seem human at all.
Poor ol* Kushy - getting his panties in a twist .
IIRC, there’s plenty of evidence that Spankee has always been a racist — and he learned that at his daddy Fred’s side.
Just 'cause nobody was paying as much attention to Spankee as he always believed they were means only that nobody really cared all that much that Spankee was racist up until a couple of years ago. And, heck, he’sbeen a vile misogynist all his life too, but most people just laughed at him…

Francis: You’re crazy!
Pee-wee: I know you are but what am I?
Francis: You’re a nerd!
Pee-wee: I know you are but what am I?
Francis: You’re an idiot!
Pee-wee: I know you are but what am I?
The Fat Nixon Malmisadmintration is chock full of ,most-punchable faces. It’s a plethora I tell you, a G-D plethora.
Because both of these Trump chicks are under the wing of mother fucking Daddy Cluckhead. The President can give security clearances to anyone he wants.
They both look like porcelain dolls.
Kushner: You can’t be a person holding women in high regard for 69 years and become a misogynist and an adulterer when you are the President.
Swan: How about Stormy Daniels?
Kushner: I was not involved in that.
True dat!
