Conservatives Relieved As Kushner Confirms He Will Not Be In Trump Administration
Jared Kushner, a key figure in President Donald Trump’s first administration, has confirmed that he will not be part of Trump’s next administration. Many conservatives are welcoming this news, viewing it as a chance for Trump to refocus on the America First policies that defined his 2016 campaign.
Kushner was a senior adviser during Trump’s first term and played a significant role in negotiating the Abraham Accords, which established diplomatic ties between Israel and several Arab nations. While these efforts were widely praised, many in Trump’s base have expressed frustration over his influence on domestic and foreign policy, believing it sometimes diverted from Trump’s promises to voters.
Without Kushner in the administration, conservatives see an opportunity for Trump to align his team more closely with his base. Figures such as Victoria Coates and retired Major General Miguel Correa are reportedly being considered for key Middle East roles, signaling a shift away from Kushner’s leadership style.
Despite his absence from an official position, Kushner is expected to provide informal advice on Middle East issues. His connections to Gulf leaders and Israeli officials remain strong, but many conservatives hope that new voices will dominate the next administration’s policy decisions.
Adding to the discussion around Kushner’s absence are concerns about his business dealings. His $3 billion investment fund, backed heavily by Gulf states, has faced criticism from some conservatives who view these financial ties as potentially distracting from Trump’s agenda.
For many of Trump’s supporters, Kushner’s confirmation that he will not join the administration marks a fresh start. They believe his absence will allow the president to focus on delivering the promises that energized his base during both of his historic campaigns.
