Kushner får allt mer ansvar – irriterat i Vita huset

Irritationen inom Vita huset växer mot Donald Trumps svärson Jared Kushner, rapporterar Politico. Källor uppger att Kushner, som är gift med Ivanka Trump, får göra lite som han vill. Han uppges vara en av Trumps mest betrodda medarbetare vilket har lett till att presidenten gett honom ansvaret för att förhandla om fred mellan Israel och Palestina och att upprätthålla USA:s relationer med Mexiko, Kanada och Kina.

Dessutom har Kushner fått uppdraget att utreda hur den amerikanska statsapparaten kan bli mer effektiv.

– Han räddar vår regering och Mellanöstern samtidigt, säger en medarbetare i Vita huset syrligt till Politico.

Jared Corey Kushner (born January 10, 1981) is an American real estate investor and developer, publisher, and senior advisor to his father-in-law, President Donald Trump. Together with Chief of Staff Reince Priebus and Chief Strategist Steve Bannon, he forms Trump's leadership team. Kushner is said to be President Trump's most trusted advisor, showing "unwavering loyalty" to his father-in-law. He was principal owner of the real estate holding and development company Kushner Companies and of Observer Media, publisher of the weekly, on-line New York Observer. On January 9, 2017, Kushner was named to be a Senior White House Adviser to his father-in-law, President Donald Trump. As a result, Kushner resigned as CEO of his family's real estate company and as publisher of the Observer. He also divested "substantial assets". Kushner is the elder son of American real estate developer Charles Kushner and is married to Donald Trump's daughter Ivanka Trump. He was among the senior advisors of Trump's presidential campaign, and stated that he played a major role in developing Trump's digital media strategy. In 2007, Kushner made the most expensive single-building property purchase in U.S. history, acquiring 666 Fifth Avenue for $1.8 billion. In 2011, Kushner brought in Vornado Realty Trust as a 50% equity partner in the ownership of the building.
