“They talk to you as if they grew up in an ivory tower,” a source told “Kushner, Inc.” author Vicky Ward.
Further revelations from a forthcoming book about President Donald Trump’s daughter Ivanka Trump and his son-in-law Jared Kushner, both senior White House aides, have cast the pair as out of touch because of their privileged upbringings.
Ivanka Trump and Kushner seemed to be perennially interfering with the president’s meetings. Ward wrote that Corallo believed the pair failed to grasp the seriousness of the Russia investigation. Another anonymous source told Ward that the pair were difficult to deal with because of their privileged upbringings."They talk to you as if they grew up in an ivory tower, which they did—but they have no idea how normal people perceive, understand, intuit,” an unnamed individual close to Trump's legal team told Ward.
The White House has dismissed the claims made in Kushner, Inc., with a representative for Kushner flatly denying the allegations made. “It seems [Ward] has written a book of fiction rather than any serious attempt to get the facts,” Kushner’s lawyer, Abbe Lowell, told The New York Times.
