Watch Kushner Get Confronted With Trumps Birtherism in Tense Interview: Was it Racist?By Connor MannionJun 2nd, 2019, 7:39 pm
Jared Kushner repeatedly refused to answer a question about President Donald Trumps birtherism while defending his father-in-law in a tense interview with Axios Jonathan Swan.

Swan asked if Kushner had ever seen Trump do or say anything racist or bigoted, and Kushner responded no.
Was birtherism racist? Swan then asked.
Look, I wasnt really involved in that, Kushner said after a pause.
I know you werent. Was it racist? Swan asked again.
