Former Trump White House counselor Kellyanne Conway criticized Jared Kushner in her new book, calling him “shrewd and calculating” and that be considered himself an expert in every topic.
According to a copy of the forthcoming book ‘Here’s the Deal‘ obtained by the Washington Post, Conway described Kushner as “a man of knowing nods, quizzical looks, and sidebar inquiries” and said he knew that “no matter how disastrous a personnel change or legislative attempt may be, he was unlikely to be held accountable for it.”
“There was no subject he considered beyond his expertise,” she continued according to the Post. “Criminal justice reform. Middle East peace. The southern and northern borders. Veterans and opioids. Big Tech and small business. If Martian attacks had come across the radar, he would have happily added them to his ever-bulging portfolio. He’d have made sure you knew he’d exiled the Martians to Uranus and insisted he did not care who got credit for it. He misread the Constitution in one crucial respect, thinking that all power not given to the federal government was reserved to him.”
According to Michael Bender, journalist and author of the book ‘Frankly, We Did Win This Election: The Inside story of How Trump Lost, the feud between Conway and Kushner started in 2016 on the campaign trial.
Kushner referred to Conway as one of Trump’s ‘enablers’ and believes it was his role to protect Trump from ‘overconfident idiots.’
Things got worst once Trump was in the White House. In 2018 Kushner accused Conway of leaking to the press, an accusation she later denied on Fox News and claim to have “a great working relationship and a great relationship with Jared and Ivanka.”
