Kushner Confirms He Will Not Be In Trump’s Next Administration

Jared Kushner, President Donald Trump’s son-in-law and a prominent figure in his first administration, has confirmed that he will not be taking a White House role in Trump’s next term. For many conservatives, this news is a welcome development, as they believe his absence will allow Trump to build a team more aligned with his base’s priorities.

Kushner was a senior adviser during Trump’s first term and played a leading role in negotiating the Abraham Accords, which normalized relations between Israel and several Arab nations. While this was a historic achievement, his influence on other policies, such as criminal justice reform, has been criticized by some who felt it veered away from Trump’s America First platform.

Although Kushner will not serve in an official capacity, he is expected to offer informal advice on Middle East issues. Trump’s team is reportedly considering other candidates for leadership roles, including Victoria Coates and retired Major General Miguel Correa. Both are seen as figures who could push the administration’s policy in a direction more in line with Trump’s campaign promises.

Kushner’s absence also comes as his business activities face increased scrutiny. His $3 billion investment fund, which has received significant backing from Gulf states, has raised concerns among conservatives who question the optics of these financial ties.

For many within Trump’s base, the confirmation of Kushner’s absence represents an opportunity to reset the administration. They are optimistic that this will lead to a stronger focus on immigration, trade, and other key issues that energized Trump’s supporters in 2016.

The move is seen as a step toward building a team that reflects the values and priorities of Trump’s voters, setting the stage for a second term centered on delivering on campaign promises.
