It will make the inevitable shit show for both you and your son-in-law (and various other family members and compatriots) all the more entertaining.

(10,125 posts)Christie or Gingrich are despicable but they have some expertise that could have helped Trump.
In terms of his legal problems or how government works, I do not think Kushner brings nearly as much to the table. From now until he leaves the Oval office, Trump will be under siege legally and without the House, having a difficult time getting much if anything done.
It's lousy for the country in terms of wasted opportunity a good president could have done something with. But with Trump, it will probably lead to more errors, fewer changes and accelerate his departure.

(14,967 posts)Jared told him to fire Comey, which precipitated Mueller's appointment.
Jared helped him with the Trump Tower meeting adoption excuse letter (in Don Jr's name), which was witness tampering and obstruction.
Jared told him to stand by MBS after the Khashoggi killing, now Khashoggi is Time's POTY and the evidence of MBS's involvement is so overwhelming even Congressional Repukes admit it.
Keep up the good work, Boy Wonder.

(46,110 posts)Jared will NEVER forgive Christie for putting his father in jail for all those years.
This is like Lucy, Charlie Brown, and the football.
They did it to Christie with the transition team. They did it to Christie with Attorney General. They're doing it again. And they're laughing their asses off every time they call him to come to D.C. to discuss a potential position. Subjugating.
