Late Night Laughs: Around the White House

-

It’s been a busy few weeks for the president. Every day he gets to work, rolls up his sleeves and gives a new job to Jared Kushner. — Stephen Colbert

Jared Kushner, who of course is married to [President Donald Trump’s] daughter Ivanka, went to Iraq today, where he met with the Iraqi prime minister. Which is strange. Because Jared Kushner’s a real estate developer. He’s 36 years old. He has no experience dealing with foreign government­s. This is a guy who negotiates rent. His job is to figure out how much it will cost to put a Dunkin Donuts on the first floor of an office building. — Jimmy Kimmel

Dennis Rodman has more foreign policy experience than Jared Kushner. So you have to wonder why the president would send him to a military operation in Iraq. There’s only one possible explanatio­n:

I think the president might be trying to kill him. A lot of fathers don’t get along with their son-in-laws. If you’re president, you can throw a black bag over his head and ship him off to Iraq. — Jimmy Kimmel

So far, Kushner is in charge of brokering Mideast peace, negotiatin­g the wall with Mexico, tackling America’s opioid epidemic, fixing the Department of Veterans Affairs, handling diplomacy with China, and dyeing the eggs for the White House Easter egg hunt. — Stephen Colbert

This weekend, Jared Kushner’s to-do list got even longer when he made a surprise visit to Iraq. He wanted to go somewhere with less sectarian violence than the White House. — Stephen Colbert
