“…Without Any Evident Experience”
Well, sure, but only if you don’t count as “experience” hiding in the trunk of a car trying to sneak into the Russian embassy to call Vlad on the encrypted Kremlin line while Obama was still President.
Otherwise, he’s got tons of experience!
Kushner has plenty of experience in criminal activity, which what is happening here. He is forcing producers to sell only to his preferred distributors and then forcing the states to buy from those. No wonder they have confiscating supplies and got mad when Maryland bought directly from Korea.
When this is over Jared Kushner is going to be one of the riches men in the World. He already had some mystery tenant (Qatar) agreed to pay for 10 years in advance rent for his white elephant on Fifth Avenue. I wonder what percentage of the 2 trillion stimulus is going to end in his pocket. No future democratic administration would earn my approval if this guy is not given a 20 year sentence.
A mafia state, with really incompetent mafiosi.
They may be incompetent at many things, but they sure are good at thievery.
Not going to read the article because I already know enough about Kushner to know I wouldn’t let him change my lightbulbs, let alone heat my oatmeal in the microwave.
OT: Looks like Trump and De Santis are sailing against a stiff breeze in Florida.
Tapes of those magic phone calls would be mighty interesting. And doing it call to call means no one knows what information they should supply or what metrics, if any, are being used. And whether there are any quid pro quo expectations.
I’m sure, just like his father-in-law, all his calls are perfect.
Slum load is an expert in supply chains…yea right…
If I’m not mistaken, it was a lease for a hundred years. Paid upfront. A short time before a multi billion dollar balloon payment was due.
Like falling into a lagoon of liquid manure and emerging fresh and clean reeking of fresh scented cologne.
Good to see Jared getting some attention, the media for far too long has just focused on what Trump says, rather than what his advisors are doing. They are the ones that should be in front of the cameras answering questions every day.
Jared “found success”? Really? The bailout on his white elephant building was payback for his deal for sending nukes to Saudi.
How Jared Kushner Is Tackling the White House’s Coronavirus Response — Without Any Evident Experience
Or tackling.
This is ridiculous. This is more ‘business man speak’ for ‘I have to spend money on a bunch of consultants that are friends’ and nothing will come of it. How many times have I seen this at work?
I guess the Mideast peace treaty is done.
I think you all underestimate the natural superiority of the aristocracy - good breeding and an expensive education will always win out over so-called ‘experience’ and grubby ‘ability’.
Maybe not, it’s rumored he’s on his 26th book on the Middle East. This could be the one that gives him the insight he needs.
Overestimate Kushner at your peril!
What about Cream of Wheat?
