    Not like for 6 years. When Trump won in 2016, but before the inauguration, there was talk about him getting appointed chief of staff. It didn't happen because Christie prosecuted Jared Kushner's dad in the 2000's, and Jared told Trump that Christie was a bad choice.

    the crime that Kushner's dad did was kind of bonkers too. He was being investigated for illegal campaign contributions, and his brother in law was a former employee turned state's witness. So what does he do? bite the bullet and pay a fine? Nope! He tries to blackmail his brother in law. He gets a prostitute and pays her to entice the brother in law to have sex in a motel with a hidden camera, the recording is sent to his own sister, the witnesses wife. The blackmailed couple then just tell the Feds what's going on and what was once just lying to the FEC becomes that and tax evasion and retaliating against a federal witness.
