Kushner claims that Kanye West’s meeting was a ‘policy’ conversation

West’s meeting with Kushner was previously reported by The New York Times earlier this week. According to the Times, West camped in Colorado and flew to Telluride to meet with Kushner and his wife, first daughter and senior adviser Ivanka Trump of White House.

Forbes reported that West recently told colleagues he had spoken to Kushner “almost daily.” But at the briefing, Kushner described his conversations with the rapper as something that happens “every now and then.”

“He has some great ideas for what he would like to see happen for the country and that’s why he has the candidacy he’s done. But, again, there are a lot of problems that the president is championing. has admired him and it was just great to have a friendly discussion, “he added.

While still a supporter of President Donald Trump, West made some bizarre appearances with the president. He grew closer to Trump after his wife, Kim Kardashian West, worked with White House officials, including Trump’s sister-in-law Jared Kushner, on criminal law reform.

But after years of support from Trump, West declared last month that he would run for president, leading Republicans – including the president himself – to speculate that West’s name on the ballot would dissuade voters from Joe Biden, especially among Blacks. voters.

West’s first campaign event, a rally in South Carolina, was an unusual affair that looked nothing more than a traditional campaign.

The rapper – dressed in what appears to be a protective vest – made false remarks about Harriet Tubman and at one point broke down the screaming. The appearance caused much concern about his well-being, and a few days later his wife made a public statement acknowledging West’s bipolar diagnosis and asking for compassion and empathy.

Trump has denied involvement running West and on Tuesday told radio host Hugh Hewitt that he has not spoken to West about his presidency. But he encouraged West’s decision.

“I have not (talked to him), but I find it great,” Trump said. “I think it’s great that he wants to hear his voice.”
