Jared Kushner testified last month that former President Donald Trump truly believed the 2020 election was stolen, according to a report.
Federal investigators asked the former senior advisor to Trump whether his presidential father-in-law had privately acknowledged in the days after the 2020 election that he had lost to President Biden, multiple sources told The New York Times.
Kushner, however, maintained that Trump had not been intentionally fabricating a stolen election narrative as a last-ditch attempt to maintain power.
He is just one of the few close to Trump to support the ex-president throughout the federal investigation led by special counsel Jack Smith.
The probe seeks to uncover the former president’s connections to baseless assertions of widespread voter fraud and attempts to block congressional certification of Biden’s Electoral College victory.
A spokesman for Kushner did not immediately respond to The Post’s request for comment.
Multiple other witnesses have been asked whether aides told Trump he had lost the election and what he had been telling staff in the summer months leading up to Election Day, according to The Times.
