Daily Presidential Tracking Poll
The Rasmussen Reports daily Presidential Tracking Poll for Monday shows that 50% of Likely U.S. Voters approve of President Trump’s job performance. Fifty percent (50%) disapprove.
This is the first time the president’s overall approval rating has been back in the 50s in nearly a month. Just after his inauguration, Trump’s job approval peaked at 59% and remained in the 50s every day until early March. It’s gone as low as 42% since then.
Here are former President Obama’s approval ratings by comparison.
The latest figures for Trump include 30% who Strongly Approve of the way Trump is performing and 39% who Strongly Disapprove. This gives him a Presidential Approval Index rating of -9. (see trends).
Regular updates are posted Monday through Friday at 9:30 a.m. Eastern (sign up for free daily email update).
Tensions with North Korea continue to rise, with Vice President Mike Pence now on the scene. Thirty-seven percent (37%) of voters said earlier this month that the United States should use military force to prevent North Korea’s further development of nuclear weapons.
Once again, the overwhelming majority of Americans have filed their income taxes just in the nick of time.
An increasing number are worried that the Internal Revenue Service will audit their taxes, though.
Only 45% have even a somewhat favorable opinion of the IRS, and voters are evenly divided when asked if they trust the federal agency to fairly enforce tax laws.
Judge Neil Gorsuch joins the U.S. Supreme Court this week. A month ago, only 43% of voters felt Gorsuch deserved the job, but that’s more positive than voters felt about both of Obama’s choices for the high court – Sonia Sotomayor and Elena Kagan.
Fifty percent (50%) of Americans planned to attend a church service to celebrate Easter.
See “What They Told Us” in surveys last week.
Some readers wonder how we come up with our job approval ratings for the president since they often don’t show as dramatic a change as some other pollsters do. It depends on how you ask the question and whom you ask.
To get a sense of longer-term job approval trends for the president, Rasmussen Reports compiles our tracking data on a full month-by-month basis.
Rasmussen Reports has been a pioneer in the use of automated telephone polling techniques, but many other firms still utilize their own operator-assisted technology (see methodology).
Daily tracking results are collected via telephone surveys of 500 likely voters per night and reported on a three-day rolling average basis. To reach those who have abandoned traditional landline telephones, Rasmussen Reports uses an online survey tool to interview randomly selected participants from a demographically diverse panel. The margin of sampling error for the full sample of 1,500 Likely Voters is +/- 2.5 percentage points with a 95% level of confidence.
Welch Defends Trump: 'Flip Flop Nonsense Is Ridiculous Media Blowback'
By F MCguire
Former General Electric CEO Jack Welch defended President Donald Trump against allegations of “flip-flopping” on many crucial issues.
Trump’s actions are “consistent, totally consistent” with his campaign platform promising jobs for Americans, the longtime Republican supporter said, defending Trump on CNN’s Smerconish on Saturday.
Trump has come under fire recently for appearing to change positions on top issues, shifting from campaign promises and statements he made while running for office.
Critics say Trump has changed his mind about China being a currency manipulator, the fate and integrity of Federal Reserve Chair Janet Yellen and the importance of the Export Import Bank.
Welch won't have any of that criticism.
“Remember, his platform was jobs, jobs, jobs, American, jobs. The things the media is beating him up for flip-flopping, that’s doing a smart thing, that’s jobs,” Welch said.
Welch also says Trump is “thriving” at the White House.
“He loves it,” said the 81-year-old. “He’s learning every day,” Welch said.
“I’ll tell you what, he was deeply into everyone, let’s do this, let’s do that,” said Welch. “I agree with that, don’t agree with that. He engaged staff, I mean a thousand of them and he was in there like he was a real player. I was overly impressed.”
Meanwhile, Newsmax Finance Insider Hans Parisis wonders just what investor reaction will be to the president's apparent policy reversals.
"It's not an overstatement for me to say that as far as Donald Trump’s policies are concerned, we witnessed a breathtaking “flip-flop” performance," Parisis wrote in his exclusive Newsmax Finance commentary.
"This is worrisome for investors because it casts doubt on the actual process about just how Trump and team crafts overall policy," Parisis explained.
"To me, Trump's decision-making process seems to be almost random," Parisis wrote.
"I think one of the big questions for financial markets and for long-term investors is: How do you handle these uncertainties about policy decisions? How do you cope and prepare as an investor amid this uncertainty? What happens if and when the next policy shock occurs?"
Melania Trump Makes Low-Key Good Friday Visit To Shelter For Abused Kids
“It was extra special and touching."
By Jack Davis
First lady Melania Trump made an unheralded trip Friday to brighten the lives of girls at a group home for victims of abuse and domestic violence victims.
While President Donald Trump used the first day of his Easter vacation to go to Trump International Golf Club in West Palm Beach, the first lady visited HomeSafe in Palm Beach, which houses girls removed for their safety by the courts.
I had a wonderful time visiting @HomeSafeFla today! The young ladies I spoke with hold so much promise for the future.
Some on social media noted that amid calls for the first lady to adopt a cause, she received little media coverage for reaching out to abused children.

MEDIA BLACKOUT: First Lady Melania Trump's Visit to Home for Abused Girls Goes Unreported
How does the national media try to control how Americans perceive the Trump presidency? One way is to not report …

Melania Trump arrived at the shelter around 10:15 a.m. and spoke with a group of girls between the ages of 12-17 for 45 minutes.
“This is a day that the girls will never forget,” said Matthew Ladika, HomeSafe’s chief executive officer.
“It was extra special and touching,” Ladika said. “She asked them what their interests are.”
The first lady had gifts for the girls.
She also shared Easter baskets and stuffed bunnies with others living at the shelter.
Trump has, in the past, sought to remind Americans of their blessings.
“There remains far more brutal and terrifying incarnations of actual gender persecution which we must face together, such as forced enslavement, sexual abuse and absolute repression of far too many women and girls around the globe. We must remember these women in our daily prayers and use our combined resources to help free them from such unthinkable and inhumane circumstances,” she said.
In an April ceremony honoring women, the first lady said, “Together, we must declare that the era of allowing the brutality against women and children is over while affirming that the time for empowering women around the world is now.”
Tillerson Stands Off with Putin
When Secretary of State Rex Tillerson left for Moscow this week, the relationship between Russia and the United States was already strained. Ever since Russian President Vladimir Putin took over in 2000, the relationship between the two superpowers has continued to suffer. But this most recent dispute — the U.S. missile attack against a Syrian airport after Syria used chemical weapons to conduct a mass killing of women and children — has left the tattered fabric of this relationship hanging on by a string.
It probably came as some surprise to Putin to discover this week that his well-publicized bromance with President Trump was over. After all, Trump was the guy who gave Putin such high praise during the presidential campaign. In fact, there was enough mutual admiration going on between the two of them that the left launched a “Russian collusion” narrative.
Then, a week ago,Trump said, “Right now we’re not getting along with Russia at all. We may be at an all-time low in terms of relationship with Russia. This has built for a long period of time. But we’re going to see what happens.”
It seems the end of the bromance was mutual. Putin has the same news to report from his camp in a recent TV interview. “You can say that the level of trust on a working level, especially on the military side, has not improved but most likely worsened” since last week’s U.S. airstrike in Syria, Putin said, according to a transcript released by the Kremlin.
Needless to say, for that reason, and a host of others, when Tillerson arrived in Moscow this week, there was nothing warm about his reception. He met with his Russian counterpart, Sergey Lavrov, Minister of Foreign Affairs. Then, after Putin had kept him waiting several hours, Tillerson and Putin met for a couple of hours.
From the sound of it, they just got into a back-and-forth with Tillerson confronting them with their lies (such as the chemical weapons in Syria), followed by their insistence that they were not lying. They spent a lot of time throwing barbs over Ukraine and Syria.
One thing that didn’t come up in the meeting was a reduction of sanctions on Russia. Tillerson said, if anything, Congress would want to increase the sanctions.
In regard to the Syrian situation, Tillerson apparently pressed the Russians to admit they were involved in the massacre with chemical weapons, or at least admit that they knew about it beforehand. Lavrov argued back that there is no proof that the Syrians even dropped chemical weapons. He accused the U.S. of conducting an “illegitimate” missile strike on a Syrian airport believed to be part of the chemical weapons launch.
When their meetings were over, Tillerson did stand with Lavrov for the obligatory hand-shake picture, but there was definitely no one saying “cheese.”
It seems the most that came from the meetings was an agreement that Lavrov referred to as “a pragmatic conversation about the irritants, so to speak, that have piled up in our relationship under the Obama administration.”
Tillerson’s objective for these meetings was to deliver an ultimatum to the Russians — end your support for Syrian President Bashar al-Assad and join the U.S. and its allies in ridding the world of ISIS, or side with Assad, Iran, and Hezbollah. Period.
There’s no telling what the Russians thought about Tillerson. But they can’t ever claim that he’s just the same old politician-type. Tillerson is much different from the guys we traditionally send. He’s big, serious and formidable. And, he’s no politician. He was instead (CEO) of ExxonMobil, the seventh largest company in the world. If that didn’t impress the Russians, nothing will.
Turkish Referendum Results: One Step Closer to Islamist Dictatorship
The vote gives Recep Tayyip Erdogan more power and removes the prime minister post.
Turkish citizens went to the booths today to vote on a constitutional reform that would grant President Recep Tayyip Erdogan more powers.
The polls have closed and Erdogan has claimed victory with 51.3% yes votes. But the opposition parties have contested these results that allow the government to “abolish the post of prime minister and entrench one-man rule.”
This makes Erdogan “the country’s most dominant leader since Mustafa Kemal Ataturk, the founder of the Turkish republic.”
The Referendum
Erdogan’s ruling Justice and Development Party (AKP) introduced new referendums in December as a way “to improve governance.”
The referendum eliminates the prime minister post and gives Erdogan “new authority over the judiciary.” It also allows Erdogan to have an election in 2019 and the ability to “serve two five-year terms.”
But it basically leaves Erdogan’s office unchecked. But he told the Turkish people his office needs this to happen so he can successfully “guide the Nato ally through war in Syria, a battle with Islamists and conflict with Kurdish separatists.”
The Vote
The New York Times reported that Turkey’s state run agency Anadolu announced that after officials counted 99% votes, the yes votes had 51.33% results while the no votes had 48.67% votes. From The Associated Press:
Turkey’s foreign minister has hailed his government’s narrow win in a referendum as the birth of a “new Turkey”
Foreign Minister Mevlut Cavusoglu told a group of supporters in his hometown of Antalya on Sunday: “As of now, there is a truly new Turkey. There will be stability and trust in the new Turkey.”
The country has not officially announced official results. but opposition parties have already started to contest the results announced. The Republican People’s Party (CHP), the main opposition party, has called into question a few ballots. The Associated Press reported:
Turkey’s main opposition party has criticized the decision of the country’s elections board to accept as valid ballot papers that don’t have its official stamp.
Republican People’s Party deputy chairman Bulent Tezcan told reporters Sunday that the decision leaves the results of the constitutional referendum “faced with a serious legitimacy problem.”
Turkey’s Supreme Election Board announced the unprecedented move after many voters casting their votes in the country’s historic referendum complained that they were given ballot papers without the official stamp. The board says the ballot papers would be considered as invalid only if proven that they were cast fraudulently.
In previous votes, ballot papers without the official seal were declared to invalid.
Tezcan said: “The Supreme Electoral Board has changed the rules of the vote….This amounts to the SEB allowing fraud in this vote.”
CHP already stated the party “will challenge 37 percent of the ballot boxes” counted, but its Deputy Chairman Erdal Aksunger stated that officials may increase that number to 60%.
The Peoples’ Democratic Party, the pro-Kurdish opposition party, wants “to object to two-thirds of the ballots.”
The opposition questioned the legitimacy of the referendum after the election board made a last-minute decision to increase the burden needed to prove allegations of ballot-box stuffing. At least one instance of alleged voter fraud appeared to be captured on camera.
“We are receiving thousands of complaints on election fraud; we are evaluating them one by one,” said Erdal Aksunger, the deputy head of the Republican People’s Party, or C.H.P.
Criticism
The Turkish government has received criticism for holding the vote while the country remains under a state of emergency due to a failed “coup” in July. After that, Erdogan conducted a power grab campaign that led to numerous arrests of journalists, academics, and members of the opposition. From The Financial Times:
“Turkey’s western orientation is finished,” said David L. Phillips, at the Institute for the Study of Human Rights at Columbia University, noting Mr Erdogan continues to detain MPs from HDP, a pro-Kurdish political party that opposed the referendum.
“There’s nothing to suggest that Erdogan will suddenly be more conciliatory,” Mr Philips added. ”There’s little hope that the HDP members of parliament will be released, the security operations in the south-east will continue and the round-up of Gulenists [blamed for the failed coup] will continue.”
During the purge, Amnesty International claimed that officials held those arrested without any access to lawyers or families. The officials also beat, tortured, and raped detainees. The organization reported:
A person on duty at the Ankara Police Headquarters sports hall saw a detainee with severe wounds consistent with having been beaten, including a large swelling on his head. The detainee could not stand up or focus his eyes and he eventually lost consciousness. While in some cases detainees were afforded limited medical assistance, police refused to allow this detainee essential medical treatment despite his severe injuries. The interviewee heard one police doctor on duty say: “Let him die. We will say he came to us dead.”
The same interviewee said 650-800 male soldiers were being held in the Ankara police headquarters sports hall. At least 300 of the detainees showed signs of having been beaten. Some detainees had visible bruises, cuts, or broken bones. Around 40 were so badly injured they could not walk. Two were unable to stand. One woman who was also detained in a separate facility there had bruising on her face and torso.
After the media, authorities targeted those in the academics. By the end of July, the government sacked 15,200 teachers, canceled 21,000 licenses at private schools, and asked deans at universities to leave.
These are academics Turkish police rounded up from several universities today. More than 1,000 faculty are already imprisoned.

Byron York: The sordid case behind Jared Kushner's grudge against Chris Christie
by Byron York
By all accounts, Jared Kushner, the husband of President Trump's favorite daughter, has become an extraordinarily powerful man in the White House. To formally appoint Kushner a senior adviser, with a top security clearance, the president sought and received a Justice Department opinion declaring the White House exempt from federal anti-nepotism laws. That meant Kushner could have an official White House title to go along with his trusted-member-of-the-family influence.
But Kushner wielded plenty of power before joining the White House staff. For one thing, he is thought to have been behind the purging of New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie from the presidential transition. Of course, Christie, tainted by Bridgegate, had problems of his own. But opposition from Kushner is said to have blocked Christie at key points during the campaign and transition.
Kushner's ire reportedly targeted others, too, for their Christie connections. After Christie was fired from heading the transition, two colleagues Christie had brought into the effort, Mike Rogers and Matthew Freedman, were dumped as well. "Both were part of what officials described as a purge orchestrated by Jared Kushner," the New York Times reported on November 15. "Mr. Kushner, a transition official said, was systematically dismissing people like Mr. Rogers who had ties with Mr. Christie."
The reason for the purging? "As a federal prosecutor, Mr. Christie sent Mr. Kushner's father to jail," the Times noted. Many other sources have confirmed the origin of Kushner's animus was Christie's prosecution of the elder Kushner. But most public mentions of the reason have been as brief as the Times'. It turns out the story behind the story is much longer, and more complicated. And ugly.
The short version is: In 2004, Jared Kushner's father Charles, a real estate magnate in New Jersey and New York, pleaded guilty to a tax fraud scheme in which he claimed hundreds of thousands of dollars in phony deductions for office expenses at the partnerships he created to manage the apartment buildings he owned. Kushner, a major donor to the Democratic Party, also pleaded guilty to fraudulently making hundreds of thousands of dollars in campaign contributions in the names of employees and associates who didn't know their names were being used. Finally, Kushner pleaded guilty to retaliating against a cooperating witness in the case — his sister. He did so by setting a trap in which he hired a prostitute to lure his sister's husband into a sexual encounter in a New Jersey hotel, where the action was secretly photographed and videotaped. Kushner sent the pictures and tape to his sister as revenge, apparently motivated by Kushner's belief that she and her husband were helping U.S. Attorney Christie and his prosecutors.
Another Kushner brother-in-law, his wife's brother Richard Stadtmauer, was charged in the tax evasion scheme, and was convicted and sentenced to three years in prison. Beyond that, the Kushner family also brought employees into the fraud, with three Kushner Companies workers charged in the matter. All pleaded guilty.
Given the extent of the criminal behavior involved — confirmed by guilty pleas and a conviction at trial — it's hard to imagine that one could examine the Kushner family case and conclude that the prosecutor was the bad guy. But in the Trump campaign and presidency, Christie has apparently suffered for his role in bringing members of the Kushner family and their employees to justice.
The criminal case began as a family feud. (For a detailed look at the complicated and intense relations between the various Kushners, see this Gabriel Sherman New York magazine article from 2009.) Some of the problems seemed rooted in the lifelong competitiveness between Charles Kushner and his brother Murray. In the early 2000s, Murray Kushner came to believe there was serious mismanagement going on in Kushner Companies. Murray sued Charles. The suit was settled and sealed.
But then, while the suit was still in arbitration, a Kushner Companies employee, accounting manager Robert Yontef, filed a suit of his own against Charles. Yontef alleged that Charles used monies from various real estate properties (referred to as "the entities" in the lawsuit) for activities that had nothing to do with the companies, like paying speaking fees to Benjamin Netanyahu ($100,000), Bill Clinton ($125,000), Paul Volcker ($50,000), and Terry Bradshaw. (Alas, the lawsuit gave no dollar figure for the former quarterback's speaking appearance.)
Yontef also charged that Charles Kushner had made millions in campaign contributions through a fraudulent bundling scheme. "Initially, contributions that Charles made through the entities were returned because there was a requirement that the names of partners be given when a partnership makes a political contribution," the suit said. "As a result, Charles issued partnership checks for the contribution and then attributed the contribution to particular partners. These partners, however, were not notified that certain contributions had been made in their names until after the contributions were made, and in many instances were never notified that other political contributions were being made by Charles with partnership funds in their names."
In a declaration attached to the suit, Yontef said that he had become increasingly upset by what he had seen at the Kushner Companies, and that he told Charles' sister Esther and her husband William Schulder, who also worked for the company, what Charles was doing. According to Yontef, Esther introduced Yontef to Murray Kushner, and Yontef also told him the story. "Over the next months, I would occasionally provide Murray with samples of the documents which demonstrate these wrongdoings," Yontef said.
The lawsuits did more than aggravate existing family antagonisms. They also raised the suspicions of law enforcement and gave investigators a roadmap into what was going on inside Kushner Companies. And indeed, in February 2003, the office of U.S. Attorney Christie began a grand jury investigation. In the months that followed, the grand jury heard evidence of tax fraud, illegal political contributions, and more.
An attachment to the criminal information ultimately filed against Charles Kushner refers to Cooperating Witness 1 (CW1), Cooperating Witness 2 (CW2), and Cooperating Witness 3 (CW3). They are not named in the case, but a look at circumstances and other documents strongly suggests that CW1 was Esther, CW2 was her husband William Schulder, and CW3 was Yontef. The three of them, court papers noted, provided information and documents to the FBI and prosecutors.
The criminal information laid out an extensive scheme to use "the entities," that is, Kushner-created companies that owned and managed individual Kushner properties, as vehicles for phony deductions. An entity known as Pheasant Hollow Associates filed for $41,356 in "fraudulent office expenses" on Tax Day, 1999, the information said, and for $142,030 in such expenses on Tax Day, 2000. Another entity, Quail Ridge Associates, filed for $119,000 in fake office expenses on Tax Day 2000 and $349,123 in 2001. Still another entity, Westminster Management, filed for $112,250 in phony expenses on Tax Day 2001.
In another count, the criminal information says Charles Kushner, "without the knowledge or permission of certain partners," made federal campaign contributions "in excess of $385,000" in the names of those unwitting partners. (Kushner was a major supporter of New Jersey Democratic Gov. Jim McGreevey, who in 2002 appointed Kushner to the board of the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey. McGreevey wanted to make Kushner chairman of the Port Authority, but backed down after accusations the appointment would have been a political payoff.)
The criminal information says Charles Kushner became aware of the grand jury investigation in March 2003, and that his sister Esther was "providing information to investigating law enforcement." In the weeks and months that followed, authorities said, Kushner's lawyers made "regular efforts" to convince investigators that CW1, CW2, and CW3 were "generally untrustworthy." The efforts were, apparently, to no avail.
Then, in August 2003, according to court documents, Kushner "initiated a scheme" to "gain leverage" over Esther and William Schulder. The idea was to "orchestrate the covert videotaped seduction" of Schulder and then hit Esther with video of her husband committing adultery.
Charles Kushner recruited two private investigators to do the work. In New York, Gabriel Sherman reported that Kushner complained to one of the men that Schulder "has been f—king around on my sister forever." Kushner paid the two men a total of $25,000 to set the trap.
The problem was, they didn't do it. According to court papers, the men spent weeks complaining that they couldn't find a woman who would agree to have sex with Schulder on camera. "The scheme stalled," according to court papers. Things went nowhere for about four months.
Then, in November 2003, a frustrated Charles Kushner took matters into his own hands and "personally recruited" a New York prostitute for the job. The two private investigators took a room in the Red Bull Inn in Bridgewater, New Jersey and wired it for video. It took a couple of tries, but the Kushner-recruited prostitute found Schulder in a diner, introduced herself, told him her car had broken down, and asked for a ride back to the hotel. When Schulder agreed, she invited him to her room. He declined, but got her phone number. The next day, he came back, and Charles Kushner got the video he wanted.
After the sexual encounter, one of the private investigators took the video to Kushner. "In a conference room with an associate present, defendant Charles Kushner viewed the videotape and expressed satisfaction with it," the criminal information says.
Kushner was so pleased, the court papers say, that he wanted the two investigators to set the same trap for Robert Yontef. In December, another woman was recruited, the hotel room was wired, the my-car-broke-down approach was made. But Yontef turned the woman down twice. There was no sex, and no tape.
According to the papers, Kushner didn't use the Schulder videotape until May 2004, when he learned that some of his associates had been told they were targets of the grand jury investigation. On May 9, 2004, according to the court documents, Kushner got in touch with one of the private detectives and instructed him to mail the tape and still photos to his sister Esther, who opened the package and saw her husband having sex with the prostitute.
If Charles Kushner's plan was to "gain leverage" over his sister, it didn't work. Esther and Schulder took the tape to law enforcement, and another count, retaliating against a cooperating witness, was added to the charges against Kushner.
Of course, the sex angle got the most coverage in the New Jersey and New York media. When the prostitute who had been with Schulder cooperated with authorities, the New York Post ran a story headlined, "Sex Gal Now Helping Feds — Hooker Turns On Kushner."
Charles Kushner was charged in July 2004. He had all the resources anyone would need to fight the charges, but instead chose to plead guilty. He was sentenced to two years in prison and served 14 months, at a facility in Alabama. His son Jared flew down to visit him every Sunday. Brother-in-law Richard Stadtmauer went to trial in 2009 and was convicted and sentenced to three years. The others charged in the case pleaded guilty and received lesser sentences.
While it was all going on, Jared Kushner was a student at Harvard and, later, studied for law and business degrees at New York University. He was not involved in the family's criminal activity. His father's spectacular flameout meant that Jared, who conferred with Charles constantly on matters of business, had to take a much bigger role in the family's business affairs.
Who did Jared blame for what had happened? Not his father. "Charlie and Jared blamed papers in general and more specifically the Newark Star-Ledger for besmirching the family name," Gabriel Sherman wrote in 2009:
And, the crimes notwithstanding, [Jared] sees his father as a victim. "His siblings stole every piece of paper from his office, and they took it to the government," Jared maintained. "Siblings that he literally made wealthy for doing nothing. He gave them interests in the business for nothing. All he did was put the tape together and send it. Was it the right thing to do? At the end of the day, it was a function of saying 'You're trying to make my life miserable? Well, I'm doing the same.'"
Five years later, in a 2014 interview with the New York real estate publication The Real Deal, Jared called his father's treatment "obviously unjust" and said the experience had soured him on an earlier ambition to become a prosecutor. "If you're convicting murderers, it's one thing," Jared said. "It's often fairly clear. When you get into things like white-collar crime, there are often a lot of nuances. Seeing my father's situation, I felt what happened was obviously unjust in terms of the way they pursued him."
Now the pursuer, the prosecutor-turned-governor-turned-Trump-supporter Chris Christie, has paid a price for bringing a case in which every single defendant was guilty.
Both Jared Kushner and Christie deny there's a problem. "That stuff is ancient history," Christie told ABC two weeks ago, on March 29. Last November, Kushner told Forbes that, "Six months ago, Gov. Christie and I decided this election was much bigger than any differences we may have had in the past, and we worked very well together. The media has speculated on a lot of different things, and since I don't talk to the press, they go as they go, but I was not behind pushing him out or his people."
Maybe. Maybe, as Jared Kushner maintains, all the reports of "differences" between him and Christie are inaccurate. But if the case of Kushner's father, and his uncle, and his other uncle, and his aunt, and their business is any indication, putting aside differences is not the family way.
