Jared Kushner, the young man with no qualifications to do anything constructive, is now taking center stage in the federal government’s non-response to the coronavirus pandemic.

Kushner, who’s married to Donald Trump’s daughter, made his first appearance today at the daily White House briefing from Trump’s pandemic response task force.

What did he say? What does this fellow have to offer the nation?

“This truly is a historic challenge. We have not seen something like this in a very long time, but I am confident that bringing innovative solutions to these hard problems, we will make progress,” Kushner said.

Innovative solutions. That’s it. What innovation does this guy have up his sleeve? Anything?

I find it astonishing in the uber-extreme that Jared Kushner would be standing anywhere near the actual brainiacs who are trying to offer wise counsel to a president who has demonstrated a stubborn reluctance to listen to anything from anyone with actual expertise on any pressing matter.

There he is. Jared Kushner, one of the “best people” Donald Trump promised to put to work to solve the nation’s problems.

Kushner had no business being there.
