Jared Kushner gave a rare interview this weekend to Axios, discussing topics as wide-ranging as the Trump administration’s Israeli-Palestinian peace plan, whether or not Trump is racist (LOL), refugees, and more. It was, to say the least, a shit show. (Slate has a nice round-up of the most cringeworthy answers.)
Needless to say, Twitter had fun.
1. Jared Kushner = haunted Victorian boy?

5. The *real* question:
why is nobody asking jared kushner the question everybody wants to know aka is he or is he not a little boy from approximately 1912 trapped in the body of a grownish man

6. Jared deflected a lot of answers by saying he wasn’t involved…
Axios: Was slavery bad?
Jared Kushner: I was not involved in that— Orli Matlow (@HireMeImFunny) June 3, 2019

8. Loving that “Lori Loughlin” is now a verb.
After watching that interview; I’m 100% sure Jared Kushner “Lori Loughlin’ed” his way thru life.
That is one stupid person. Wow.
