‘American Psycho’ Jared Kushner slammed as ‘the perfect avatar of elite incompetence’
Kushner’s knack for failing upward makes him “the perfect avatar of elite incompetence in our times,” and
an example of how people born into wealth in the United States seemingly get rewarded no matter how incompetently they behave.
“Kushner bought the New York Observer in 2006 and wrecked it utterly; its last print issue ran the day that Trump won election in 2016,”
“His record $1.8 billion purchase of 666 Fifth Avenue remains
one of the great boondoggles in New York commercial real estate history.
And yet Kushner’s many failures seem only to have made him more ardent and secure in his self-belief.”
“So here we have Kushner, a powerful special adviser with no meaningful expertise in public health or epidemiology,
using a breathtakingly specious chart
produced by an economist who’d flubbed the biggest prediction he’d ever made —
all as a justification for the federal government to do less to confront a rampaging pandemic,”
