Jared Kushner For Chief Of Staff?

Good idea. Then Baron can take Jared's place as an official White House adviser. At least during school breaks and vacation.

Quote:
President Trump is considering Jared Kushner to replace outgoing chief of staff John Kelly, according to the Huffington Post.

Kushner - already an official Whiter House adviser - is reportedly one of five finalists Trump told reporters he had narrowed the pool down to on Thursday, while Kushner - Trump's son-in-law, has indicated he is interested in the job according to a "top Republican close to the White House" in a statement to the Post.
Kushner and Trump are said to have met on Wednesday to discuss the role.
Kushner has been pushing his own candidacy with Trump, citing his work on a criminal justice reform package and a claimed ability to work with Democrats, one person said. “I don’t know why he thinks that, when the Democrats are mainly going to be coming after Trump,” the source said. -HuffPo

Vig, it is a ZeroHedge "journalist" named Tyler Durden citing a HuffPo article as it's reference.


My uncle's aunt's cousin's brother from another mother has more credibility.

Other sources include CBS and Reuters. Is it such a stretch to think that The Donald would at least consider this?

Is that such a stretch from Jared's current position as adviser to the president and roving international negotiator?

It is one thing that he is behind the scenes. Quite another that he would be navigating the ship.
