Arguably one of President Trump’s most destructive moves in the wake of his historic victory a year ago was to install his daughter Ivanka Trump and son-in-law Jared Kushner as key advisors in the West Wing.
The apparently different worldview has clashed with that of Trump’s base on a number of occasions, as well as a number of stumbles by the pair who are reportedly known within the West Wing as “the royal family.”
With Kushner’s influence reportedly waning, these seven will make you thankful “Javanka” are falling, not rising in influence in the Trump White House.
Here are some of their worst moments:
Jared Urges Trump to Fire FBI Director James Comey
Kushner, who carries the title of “senior adviser,” was reportedly one of the key voices in pushing for Trump to fire FBI Director James Comey in May. While Comey was no friend of the Trump administration and was known for his showboating and love of the spotlight, Comey’s firing led to the appointment of former FBI Director Robert Mueller as special counsel for the investigation into alleged Russian interference.
Breitbart News Executive Chairman and former White House Chief Strategist Steve Bannon called it the biggest mistake in modern political history.
Mueller, in turn, has taken a broad interpretation of his mandate for the investigation, and negative headlines have dogged the administration for months. Last month three former Trump aides were indicted, including former Trump campaign chairman Paul Manafort.
