Rachel Maddow Reminds Everyone That Jared Kushner Should Be A Big Scandal
Rachel Maddow pointed out that the Trump administration isn't doing what they claim and that Jared Kushner should be a much bigger scandal.
If the American people were in a generous state of mind, they might conclude that Donald J. Trump and his family can’t help themselves.
Even when Russia helps Iran kill US troops, Donald Trump is always there to do a favor for his buddy Putin.
That’s the generous interpretation.
The more realistic way of looking at it was stated by Rachel Maddow on MS NOW.

Maddow said:
While Russia is using Russian intelligence to help Iran kill American troops and target American facilities in the Middle East, and you know, maybe, maybe our president just can’t stop himself from acting to help Russia.
Even when Russia is acting to kill Americans, maybe he just can’t stop himself. It just feels so good he can’t stop. But doesn’t it seem like in the middle of this war, he should be able to stop himself from at least helping Iran? From helping the Iranian regime, which he has just declared war on because.
Also quietly amid this inexplicable war on Iran. Trump’s Justice Department has also just moved to drop the largest Iranian sanctions case ever in history. This is a case involving a bank, a bank called Halkbank. They’re being prosecuted for, again, the largest ever known violation of sanctions on the Iranian regime for illegally sending tens of billions of dollars to Iran.
That’s what that prosecution is about, and in the middle of. Trump waging war on Iran bombing Iran, supposedly because he’s so opposed to the Iranian regime. Trump now simultaneously has had his Justice Department drop that case, the largest Iranian sanctions case ever, because now suddenly he wants to let all that slide.
It’s almost like he’s not really doing things for the reason he says he’s doing them right.
Maddow then brought up Jared Kushner.
