How Jared Kushner sought advice from a 'pro-Kremlin' Russian
“Jared was genuinely eager to cultivate relationships with foreign policy people,” said a campaign adviser at the time who has worked with Simes. “He was having a hard time early on when foreign establishment was horrified by what Trump was doing. And he recognized in Dmitri someone who had serious foreign policy credentials and was sympathetic to the candidate.”
“I think Simes found Trump as much as the campaign found him,” said the foreign policy veteran, pointing to Simes’ desire for political relevance.called for an “easing of tensions” Despite his access, Simes had frustrations with the campaign and with Trump himself, whose cavalier attitude he found “maddening,” the former campaign adviser said. “So he tried to take Trump’s intuitions and turn them into something coherent.”
