In conservative circles surrounding the “Make America Great Again” movement, the perception is gaining ground that Jared Kushner plays a central and controlling role in Donald Trump’s political environment. Parts of this base view him as the dominant figure within the internal power structure. Alongside ideologically driven positions, there is also a current within the movement strongly shaped by conspiratorial thinking, which interprets political developments as the result of hidden influence and frequently reproduces antisemitic narratives.
Within these circles, alleged connections between Kushner and the so-called Alexander brothers are also circulating, a family of entrepreneurs active in the luxury real estate business with operations including Florida and New York, whose members have been convicted of serious crimes such as rape and abuse. This connection is presented as part of a broader interpretive pattern in which personal networks and religious affiliations are used to explain political decisions. At the same time, there is clear criticism within these groups of a potential military escalation in the conflict with Iran, which is interpreted as being in Israel’s interest and allegedly influenced by Benjamin Netanyahu.
At the same time, the perception is growing that representatives of isolationist positions within the government’s orbit are increasingly losing influence. Figures such as Tulsi Gabbard, who have opposed military interventions, are finding themselves in a difficult position and are appearing publicly restrained. Joe Kent, who is associated with this current, also announced his resignation after informing JD Vance of his decision before Donald Trump was made aware of it
