Some might even call him a whiner:
Former White House senior aide Jared Kushner dismissed his father-in-law’s current troubles with top-secret documents as a mere “paperwork issue” on Friday.
Last month, the FBI confiscated boxes of documents from former President Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago home and resort, including top secret information. Everything was supposed to go directly to the National Archives after Trump left office, under the requirements of the Presidential Records Act. Trump is now under investigation for possible violations of the Espionage Act.
Yet Kushner calmly shrugged off Trump’s stash of documents and the significant security risk it posed in an interview with Rupert Murdoch’s Sky News.
“Why did the president take home top secret documents?” Sky News host Kay Burley grilled Kushner.
“You have to ask him that question,” Kushner responded. “But what I will say is that … he was under constant attack,” he added.
“Yeah, but he took top secret documents home, potentially risking the security of the United States,” Burley shot back.
Kushner replied: “This seems like it’s an issue of paperwork that should’ve been able to be worked out between DOJ and [Trump]. I don’t know what he took or what he didn’t take, but I think right now that we’re relying on leaks to the media.”
You can always count on Jared to be the snottiest little bitch this side of Tucker Carlson.
