Kushner has been talking to West almost daily.

And yeah, Kanye is off his rocker: "Jared’s scared and doesn’t want me to run because he knows that I can win”

Inside Kayne West's 'Almost Daily' chats with Jarad Kushner

1. Lol, Kushner so deserves it. Hope often more than once and

that other personal visits to try to keep him interested will be necessary.

And that seems to be the message that Kushner has been feeding him: “Jared’s scared and doesn’t want me to run because he knows that I can win,” West has told numerous associates... That message, the sources close to West acknowledge, is the exact one that will embolden West to stay in the race. “If you know him for more than 20 minutes, you know that will work,” ... "The more you tell him he can’t do a thing, the more he’ll do it...”

Not so amusing as Kushner's travails, of course, is his exploitation of West's mental illness.

2. West is worth more than MF45.

Jared is a leech. QED.

[Hortensis]

3. Incredibly more overall, even including the unacceptable.

4. Not to mention that what Kushner is doing is illegal.

5. And Jarad wants us to believe it is just a friendship--ha ha

[denem]

6. Jared wants to get friendly with West's money,

sooner rather than later.

7. This feels a tad bit ... illegal

[tanyev]

13. It also makes me recall Jared and Ivanka's 'vacation' to Croatia right after the 2016 convention.

I'm sure they were up to no good on that trip and the vacation pics were only for show.

8. I don't know if it is illegal

but it is certainly an indication that Trump knows that he can not compete for the black vote. It is also such an insult to black people assuming that they are not smart enough to understand the game he is playing.

If Trump wanted the black vote, he should have started working for it years ago, but to have done that would have been to anger his racists following. The whole West thing is a pathetic attempt to game the election.

9. Ah, the racist blind spot!

Racism is such a distorted view of the world that even the racists with plenty of resources make huge mistakes like this.

[gab13by13]

10. That's what burning the candle at both ends gets you.

11. I hate to be the one to break this to Kushner

But Kanye West is not that popular and we African Americans aren't that stupid. Jaime Foxx made a hit song with this a**clown and even he slams him.

12. To people like Kushner, Black people are interchangeable.

Remember when Rubio tweeted a photo of Elijah Cummings thinking it was John Lewis. Actually, to people like Kushner, people of any race are interchangeable—they exist simply to serve the Kushners and Trumps of the world. What a disgusting family.

14. Trump should do the "right" thing about West: Replace Pence with West.
