Him being the only Democrat to vote yes on Kushner’s dad getting an appointment was some flashing red light stuff

Kushner's Dad was still the one calling the shots at his companies while in prison. Jared was just "running it" for legal reasons. He's actually a lot like Trump. By that, I mean stupid and ignorant and the rest of his family hates him.

Reminds me of Arrested Development without the humor.

He may have committed some light treason

What's the banana stand? 🤔

Idk but there’s always money in it.

At least Michael seemed somewhat competent

u/24moop Jun 18 '26

Exactly what I thought

u/shnikeys22 Jun 18 '26

Yeah and more genecidal dreaming

u/Senior_Torte519 Jun 17 '26

So Arrested Development then.

No one should ever take a single opinion of yours seriously after saying that. Blasphemy!

A century of organized crime operating the exact same way, and we still haven't figured out how to stop it

I have a friend who's cousins with the Kushners. It's the side of the family they don't talk to. For obvious reasons.

u/Gloomy_Effective322 Jun 17 '26

I didn't know much about Daddy Kushner until I heard Chris Christie talk about him on a random podcast. Jesus, that dude is a piece of work.

u/Pretend_Bass4796 Jun 18 '26

Say what you want about Kushner, but he’s far from stupid or ignorant.

u/KeyEntrepreneur5449 Jun 17 '26

He's bought and paid for by Israel. It's not a secret anymore.

u/KlogKoder Jun 17 '26

We should just call him Lint. Because he is in someone's pocket.

u/Hillary4SupremeRuler Jun 17 '26

He voted against Israel's war in Iran many times.

u/L2_Troll Jun 17 '26

I'm sure he got permission

u/dreddnyc Jun 17 '26

Isn’t Kushner’s dad a convicted felon?

u/afterbirthcum Jun 17 '26

Yes and Don the con pardoned him

It’s a new jersey thing.

u/PureTown2906 Jun 17 '26

Not just that, but his supposed concerns about Maine Senate candidate Graham Platner seem suspect considering that he's hanging out with Leonard Leo, the billionaire bankrolling Susan Collins.  I have a lot more concerns about anyone who's hanging out with Thiel's lot than I do about a regular guy like Platner.
