Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.

Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.

Example:

  1. Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
  2. Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
  3. No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
  4. Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
  5. No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

That's all the rules!

He already got $2B in Saudi cash why would he put in the effort?

[–] dhork@lemmy.world 22 points 9 months ago

Of course, he'll be much more useful as the coordinator of the Trump Family's access to foreign cash.

[–] Burn_The_Right@lemmy.world 14 points 9 months ago

Yeah, well he better not be trying to slink away with daddy's $2 billion in Saudi cash. Trump sold those secrets fair and square and earned that money!

Doesn't matter. If he joins he was lying. If he doesn't join, it doesn't mean he was telling the truth. Nothing he says matters and if he does the opposite of what he says there's no action to take.

Next time he will definitely solve the Middle East crisis.

This is the best summary I could come up with:


Jared Kushner ruled out on Tuesday a return to the White House if his father-in-law, former President Donald J. Trump, were elected in November.

Mr. Kushner, when asked at an Axios summit in Miami whether he would be open to joining a second Trump administration, said he was focused on his private equity firm, Affinity Partners.

“I’ve been very clear that my desire at this phase of my life is to focus on my firm,” he said.

“I’ve really enjoyed the opportunity as a family to be out of the spotlight.”

He was pressed by Dan Primack, an Axios business editor, on how he would respond if Mr. Trump called on him to return.

He added that Mr. Trump had assembled a deep bench of trusted confidants to guide him if voters returned him to the White House, and described being an adviser as a “24-7 high-stakes job.”


The original article contains 194 words, the summary contains 148 words. Saved 24%. I'm a bot and I'm open source!

Remember when he was gonna solve conflict in the Middle East? And now Israel (Fuck Israel) and Palestine are friends?
