White House staff turns on out of his depth Jared Kushner amid chaos and turmoil: report
http://www.rawstory.com/2017/04/white-house-staff-turns-on-out-of-his-depth-jared-kushner-amid-turmoil-and-chaos-report/
According to Politico, however, resentment is growing against Kushner in an already factionalized and strife-torn White House. Hardline conservatives see the moderate-minded, 36-year-old Kushner as an obstacle to their agenda and worry that Kushner ally Gary Cohn a Democrat will pressure Kushner to steer the administration toward the middle.
Thus far, Pres. Trump has tasked his daughters husband a government neophyte with no previous policy or legislative experience with solving the crisis in the Middle East and overseeing the U.S. relationships with China, Canada and Mexico. On top of that ambitious portfolio, Kushner and Cohn this week established the White House Office of American Innovation, an initiative to modernize and streamline the operations of the federal government.
But Kushners status as the big-issue guru has stoked resentment among his colleagues, who question whether Kushner is capable of following through on his various commitments, wrote Politicos Josh Dawsey, Kenneth P. Vogel and Alex Isenstadt. And some colleagues complain that his dabbling in myriad issues and his tendency to walk in and out of meetings have complicated efforts to instill more order and organization into the chaotic administration. These people also say Kushner can be a shrewd self promoter, knowing how to take credit and shirk blame whenever it suits him.
Hes saving the government and the Middle East at the same time, one administration official quipped to Politico.

That is why the two attempted Libertarian governments failed. We're watching a third fail real time.

and a lot of people are more afraid of his becoming completely isolated by communicating only with and through his family. At that point, he will have to be removed and by his own party.

No wonder Rump trusts him -- he's a younger version of himself!

Forget just wearing a hat. She needs the entire dress!
Probably her daddy's suggestion.
