Conservatives Welcome Kushner’s Confirmation He Will Not Join Trump Administration

Jared Kushner has confirmed he will not be part of President Donald Trump’s next administration, a development that has been met with approval from many conservatives. Critics within Trump’s base have often argued that Kushner’s influence during the first term led to missed opportunities for advancing the America First platform.

As a senior adviser, Kushner was instrumental in foreign policy achievements like the Abraham Accords, which normalized relations between Israel and several Arab nations. However, his involvement in domestic policy, such as criminal justice reform, drew criticism from conservatives who felt these initiatives did not align with Trump’s core promises.

With Kushner stepping aside, Trump’s transition team is reportedly considering figures like Victoria Coates and retired Major General Miguel Correa for roles in Middle East policy. Both are seen as more closely aligned with the priorities of Trump’s base, offering a shift from the previous administration’s dynamics.

Kushner’s absence comes as his financial dealings remain under scrutiny. His investment fund, which has significant backing from Gulf states, has sparked criticism from some conservatives who worry about potential conflicts of interest. This has only reinforced the belief among Trump’s supporters that his departure from an official role is a positive development.

For many conservatives, Kushner’s confirmation that he will not take on a formal position represents an opportunity for Trump to double down on his America First agenda. Supporters are optimistic that the new administration will focus more intently on immigration, trade, and other issues central to Trump’s base.

Kushner’s informal advisory role on Middle East issues is expected to continue, but many hope that his reduced presence will pave the way for a sharper focus on Trump’s campaign promises.
