On MSNBC Saturday, Washington Post reporter David Fahrenthold revealed the disconnect between what President Donald Trumps son-in-law Jared Kushner is demanding of his tenants, and what he is asking for from his creditors.
[Trumps] adult children, they seem to derive most of their income and, you know, youre the expert on this, from his businesses, things with his surname on them, said host Joy Reid. So in terms of their income, without these hotels, without these resorts and the money coming in from them and the foreign emoluments coming in, where do they get their money?
Well, the main source of income, if the hotels and restaurants are closed, is a couple office buildings that dont even have their name on them, one in New York, one in San Francisco, said Fahrenthold. Those produce a lot of cash. It will continue to produce it for a while just because its so hard to get out of leases.
And lets talk about Jared for a moment, said Reid. Rather than relax the rent requirements for his tenants, and some of his tenants are in tough positions, in Maryland and other places, that they are enforcing to the maximum that they want their money. What about his income? A lot of it does come from being not the best landlord.
Im not the worlds expert on Jared Kushner, but I have read that, said Fahrenthold. At the same time, the Kushner Company is asking for leniency from its lenders theres a retail space in Times Square that Ive read theyre having trouble making the payments on. So theyre forcing others to make payments while trying to get out of it themselves.

A true, human parasite that will kill the host if needs be. The scum of the Earth get to cash in big and then beg for leniency while they boot The People out because they have gamed the system well enough to have massive investments in rentals. Oh, go be homeless you worthless, delinquent tenets! Aren't there poor houses to go to?
I imagine they might pray fervently to St. Scrooge, St. Potter and St. Rand in order they might continue to extract more from the most people. A pox on them?
