Foreign Policy: Kushner to Interns: Trump Team Too Disorganized to Collude With Russia
In off-the-record remarks, the president’s son-in-law offers a unique defense.
Donald Trump’s election team could not have colluded with Russia because they were barely talking to each other, according to Jared Kushner, the president’s son-in-law and top White House advisor.
