Jared Kushner is f*cking furious about reduced role and has lost 7 lbs since Inauguration Day [View all]

http://www.rawstory.com/2017/01/jared-kushner-is-fcking-furious-about-reduced-role-and-has-lost-7-lbs-since-inauguration-day-report/

President Fuckface Von Pussygrabber’s son-in-law, Jared Kushner, is reportedly losing a power struggle inside a White House dominated by right-wing extremists. Kushner and his wife, Ivanka Trump, are orthodox Jews who observe the Shabbat, and Vanity Fair reported that some of the president’s most clumsy blunders have come while the couple had stopped working or using technology from sundown Friday to sundown Saturday. “To me, that’s not a coincidence,” a source close to Kushner told the magazine.

Kushner is seen as a calming influence on his father-in-law, but his weekly sabbatical has left the president to his own devices for a full day on the weekends. That, so far, has proven disastrous.

Kushner has been seen as the “secure line” so far, a source told Vanity Fair, in a White House dominated by ex-Breitbart chief Steve Bannon and political operative Stephen Miller. But Kushner’s influence may be waning already, the magazine reported. He spent hours last week trying to set up a meeting between his father-in-law and Mexican President Enrique Peña Nieto to discuss Trump’s proposed border wall — but that all fell apart after Trump tweeted the face-off should be canceled if Mexico was unwilling to pay for the wall. “Kushner was fucking furious,” the source told Vanity Fair.

The source said Kushner had lost seven pounds and grown pale since Inauguration Day, and his relationship with his father-in-law appears to have changed.



Any sign of distress with this band of fools is a good thing, right?
