The usual phrase is, "Like father, like son". However, in this case, it's "Like father-in-law, like son-in-law". Jared Kushner, son-in-law to the con artist, is now under investigation for his meeting with Russian banker, Sergey Gorkov, who is an associate of Russian President Vladimir Putin.
Gorkov is the head of Vnesheconombank, a state-owned Russian entity that is the subject of U.S. government sanctions. Gorkov was trained by Russia's Federal Security Service (FSB). He has not played a diplomatic role for Putin, which prompted questions about why he was meeting with Kushner during the transition, according to the Times, which cited current and former officials in its report.
Like the con artist who did business with an Iranian bank which funds terrorists while Iran was under sanctions, and with Cuba while that country was under sanctions, Kushner has followed closely in those footsteps. The sanctions against the Russian bank, as well as other banks and individuals, is the result of Russia's seizing Ukrainian territory, its attack on Ukraine and its funding of terrorists in East Ukraine.
This meeting comes on the heels of the revelation Kushner had met with Russian Envoy Sergey Kislyak in an attempt to create a secret, backdoor channel with Russia. Why this channel, away from the prying eyes of law enforcement or the public, was needed has never been indicated. The closest anyone has come up with is it was an attempt to continue the collusion of the campaign but on matters related to the lifting of sanctions against Russia. This would jibe with the con artist's abject refusal to say anything bad about Russia, even going so far as to make excuses for Russia's deliberate bombing of hospitals in Syria.
It seems Kushner can't keep his backdoor closed, which may end up costing him a lot more in the end.
