Jared Kushner helps Trump pave rare bipartisan path to big win

Thursday’s roundtable at President Trump’s summer White House in New Jersey to address prison and sentencing reform with governor’s is the latest bid by top aide Jared Kushner to give his father-in-law a rare bipartisan victory on a once controversial issue.

In getting Trump to carve out part of his working vacation at his golf club in Bedminster, N.J., Kushner and other officials are hoping to demonstrate how important the issues are to the president as he works to get a Senate vote in the next month.

Trump’s meeting this afternoon with governors, state attorneys general, and top aides is the latest in which he will endorse prison reform and he is also expected to open the door to sentencing reform, a sign to key senators that he is ready for a deal.

Just last week he met with Trump met with Republican Sens. Mike Lee, Lindsey Graham, Tim Scott and Chuck Grassley who are working legislation on sentencing and prison reform.

“We are trying to get a vote in the next two weeks,” said an administration official of the broad prison reform bill known as the First Step Act that passed the House overwhelmingly.

As he has on Middle East peace and other projects his father-in-law has given him, Kushner has worked overtime -- and always behind the scenes -- to build an unusual coalition in support of the reforms.

I still don't trust Jared.  Nope not at all.  His strong connection to Soros is troubling.  Besides he looks like an evil Pee Wee Herman doll.

Your instincts are well founded.
The Kushners have been engaged, for generations,
in shady real estate deals within crime riddled and drug
addicted slums, run by the NYC housing bureaucracy.
This Kushner has the gravitas of a brick!!!

Yes, and in addition he and his brother took $$ from Soros to start up companies and made billions.  One of the subsidiaries was a start up company for Bammycare.
