Kushner’s name regularly comes up during Trump’s campaign speeches, with Trump’s praising daughter Ivanka’s husband as, among other things, “amazing” on Super Tuesday, “fantastic” during a CNN town hall in Wisconsin and “a very, very successful real estate man” in New Hampshire.

But unlike Trump’s sons’ wives, Kushner, 35, appears to play a prominent role in helping Trump formulate policy positions and campaign strategy. Indeed, he would have a role in a Trump White House transition team, according to a campaign adviser.
“Jared has impressed everyone on the campaign, including seasoned campaign veterans with his instincts and intellect, ” the adviser said of the real estate developer and newspaper publisher.
“He’s emerged as a quiet power whose input is sought on a wide variety of important issues.”
