John Oliver will keep you awake tonight by comparing the incredible political power held by Ivanka and Jared Kushner to their combined lack of political experience. If that doesn’t prop your eyes open, bear in mind, Trump is regularly naked in the White House. He could be airing ‘the boys’ out in Lincoln’s bedroom at this moment, or forcing Mike Pence to join him in some naked bowling.
People feel soothed by the presence of Ivanka and Jared, believing that at least there are adults in the room, and that the two are a positive influence on man baby in the White House…When in truth, Ivanka may just be letting us believe whatever makes us feel better.
In her book “The Trump Card” Ivanka was candid: “Perception is more important than reality. If someone perceives something to be true, it is more important than if it is in fact true. This doesn’t mean you should be duplicitous or deceitful, but don’t go out of your way to correct a false assumption if it plays to your advantage.”
Jared Kusher is charged with bringing peace in the Middle East, fixing the opioid epidemic, attending every meeting with foreign dignitaries, is the primary point of contact for two dozen countries, is in charge of municipal dog catching – and the list rolls on. Jared, who is the son of an imprisoned real estate tycoon has zero political experience. Kusher’s one big plus is that he is not Steve Bannon. All who know him agree that Kushner is quiet. If you’ve never heard him talk, this is the chance to hear a rare tape of one of the most powerful men in the country right now.
