What is Kushner trying to hide amd what was he up to?
Kushner had a meeting with top Mexican officials but did not invite the US ambassador to Mexico to said meeting.

President Trump’s son-in-law and senior adviser Jared Kushner did not invite the U.S. ambassador to Mexico to meetings with top Mexican officials on Wednesday, according to a new report.
A senior U.S. official told The New York Times that Kushner did not invite Ambassador Roberta Jacobson to meetings with Mexican President Enrique Peña Nieto and Mexican Foreign Minister Luis Videgaray.
Jacobson, who is among the State Department’s top experts on Latin America, announced last week she would step down from her post in May after serving in the U.S. government for 31 years.
Christopher Sabatini, a lecturer on international relations at Columbia University, told the Times that Kushner’s meeting was “not the way foreign policy normally is, or should be, conducted.”
“The sending of the president’s son-in-law — someone with no experience in Mexican-U.S. relations — is another example of the de-professionalization and personalization of diplomacy that will hurt U.S. interests and leverage in the region,” he told the Times.

Considering Kushner tried to get a massive loan from the Qataris and his family tried to sell US green cards to Chinese investors, such incidents should raise red-flags. You have to wonder if Kushner was trying to score some deals while indirectly alluding to some backscratching. Hillary got flack for her pay-to-play attempts, rightly so.

Can a Mod please merge with the Kushner corrupt thread? Thanks.
