https://www.axios.com/trump-kushner-second-thoughts-408d5a33-725d-442a-88e4-d6ab6742c139.htmlPresident Trump has told people in recent days that he regrets following some of son-in-law and senior adviser Jared Kushner's political advice including supporting criminal justice reform and will stick closer to his own instincts, three people with direct knowledge of the president's thinking tell Axios.
Behind the scenes: One person who spoke with the president interpreted his thinking this way: "No more of Jared's woke s***." Another said Trump has indicated that following Kushner's advice has harmed him politically.
Why it matters: This could be the final straw for federal police reform legislation this year, and it could usher in even more incendiary campaign tactics between now and November.
Details: The sources said the president has resolved to stick to his instincts and jettison any policies that go against them, including ambitious police reform.

(25,111 posts)regretted this? And actually, I'm getting tired of all this bullshit. My gawd, shithole, people are dying from COVID19. The infections are on the rise. Plus, you still have children in concentration camps. And bounties on our troops by your bestie, Putin. And all you worry about is "ratings; it's someone else fault; stealing taxpayers money; spending taxpayer money 1) task force to protect confederate statutes; hoax, to name a few.
I am so tired of this man, the administration and the republican party.

(11,738 posts)People on the board have been saying the "n" word is not too far down the road. Maybe we should start a pool?
As others have said, the one policy goal that could maybe possibly been helpful to some Americans, is the policy he regrets so he is going back to his instincts. We know what his instincts are.
I say we'll hear it from him by Mid August.
