If Donald Trump becomes president again, do not expect to see his son-in-law Jared Kushner back in the White House.
Kushner wishes the best for his father-in-law, but doesn’t want to take part in a second Trump term.

Kushner Wants to Focus on His Family and Stay Out of the Spotlight
Kushner, who is something of a persona non grata to the MAGA faithful, instead wants to remain involved with his investment firm, Affinity Partners.
“I was very fortunate to play a role in the campaign and then join him in the administration,” Kushner told Axios’ Business Editor Dan Primack. “There was some incredible things we were able to get done together. Very, very proud of them.”
“But this time, I think he’ll be able to build a really incredible team based on the people who are available,” Kushner said.
Kushner said that he did enjoy his role in Trump’s first term and thinks in his 2024 presidential election bid the former president has “I think that the team around him is maybe the best he’s had.
“They’re doing an incredible job,” Kushner explained. “And I suspect that if he gets into office again, he would have just the level of competence and professionalism, even more so than it was in the last administration.”
Kushner also said he enjoys staying out of the spotlight and spending time with his family, which is completely understandable given the scrutiny Trump unintentionally tends to bring to those around him.

No Ivanka Either
Kushner’s wife and Trump’s daughter, Ivanka Trump, also said she would like to focus on her family and doesn’t intend to be involved in a potential second Trump administration.
Ivanka Trump said last year, “I love my father very much. This time around, I am choosing to prioritize my young children and the private life we are creating as a family. I do not plan to be involved in politics.”
She added, “While I will always love and support my father, going forward I will do so outside the political arena. I am grateful to have had the honor of serving the American people and will always be proud of many of our administration’s accomplishments.”
