WH officials warned Trump that talking to Bob Woodward was a bad idea, we are told. But Trump went forward with the hours of interviews anyway. A source, who has direct knowledge of discussions, said Trump and Kushner thought Woodward interviews were a good idea.

Aides to the president "had concerns and voiced them repeatedly," the source said

A separate source familiar with the situation pushed back on any notion that Kushner signed off on the interviews. The source said Kushner viewed Woodward with caution. Kushner ultimately spoke to Woodward to “infuse some honesty into the book,” the source said.

1. I think this administration talking to Woodward is a fabulous idea.

[dflprincess]

2. Kushner too?

That's surprises me a little. But then they are equally arrogant and stupid. A very bad combination.

6. The egocentrics in the WH won out and went for the interviews. Ignorance supreme.

8. I think the 'second source' tweet makes more sense regarding Kushner.

Especially the part where Kushner attempted to “infuse some honesty into the book.”

3. they own the DOJ, the DOJ no longer is for AMerica but for him, nothing for him to worry about

Brace yourselves for what Barr and the DOJ is going to do to interfere with the election along side of putin's intel services, whatever they are called, I call them KGB

9. Kushner wanted to "infuse" some honesty into the book.

Huh?

Does that mean Kushner assumed that his father-in-law would tell nothing but lies and that his voice (Jared’s) would be required in order to “infuse” some truth?

That’s one of the lamest defenses I have ever heard.

10. Oh that Jared

He’s really stupid to the bone

11. Kushner of course said, "Go for it!"

And now he's backtracking because he always chooses the wrong path, and then pretends he didn't.
