President Trump has called his senior adviser, son-in-law Jared Kushner, "a tremendous asset...throughout the campaign and transition."
However, their close relationship may be going through some challenges, according to a recent Vanity Fair report.
The piece states that "according to a source familiar with the situation, Kushner's influence on his boss may be flagging."

One instance cited by Vanity Fair is the abrupt cancellation of Trump's meeting with Mexico's President Enrique Peña Nieto, which Kushner had reportedly spent numerous hours trying to negotiate.
According to writer Emily Jane Fox, a source said about Kushner, "I'd never once heard him say he was angry throughout the entire campaign. But he was furious."
In addition to issues surrounding Mexico, Kushner, an Orthodox Jew, has also been blasted for working on behalf of an administration that recently barred refugees when his own grandmother was a Holocaust survivor.

In fact, Trump has indicated that his son-in-law could help brokering peace in the Middle East, citing his family background, but critics have pointed out the Kushner is too inexperienced for the task, reports The Guardian.
Meanwhile, his wife Ivanka has also been under fire for posting an Instagram picture of her and Kushner dressed in fancy clothes as protests about her father's immigration order grew.
According to USA Today, she has been accused by many on social media as being "tone deaf."

Fake news is my guess.
This whole article is made up crap.
This is controversial, how?
Is this as bad as Obama going golfing right after the beheading of that journalist?
Geez, now we’re listening to Vanity Fair? What’s next? People?
More fake news. Do they ever stop?!
Vanity Fair is full of crap.
This is bullshit.
Doubtful it even rises to the level of #fakenews.
Whenever the word reportedly is used by a faux news spreader, it is probably fake news.
Source: Vanity Fair.
Result: Fake News.
I printed this out, shredded and nestled around my violets. This BS is going to make some amazing spring blooms.
If there’s no news, ya gotta make it up...and it has to be anti-Trump cuz that’s what sells.
Graydon Carter, the editor of Vanity Fair, hates, hates, HATES Donald Trump (going back to his days as an editor of Spy magazine), and the feeling is probably mutual. Vanity Fair will never have a good word for Donald Trump.
Whenever the word reportedly is used by a faux news spreader, it is probably fake news.
Also, citing Vanity Fair as source like this is probably fake news, “the abrupt cancellation of Trump’s meeting with Mexico’s President Enrique Peña Nieto, which Kushner had reportedly spent numerous hours trying to negotiate.”
Right, I always get my news from AOL...
Yep. Fake. I doubt AOL has anyone on the inside.
...Vanity Fair will never have a good word for Donald Trump...
Likewise, I’m sure...
Uhm...regardless...Trump is going to have disagreements, arguments and debates with staff and cabinet ...it’s the way decision -making happens. This was true for Obama, Bush, Clinton, Bush, Reagan etc...
Some of the most intense were in Reagan’s White House. A bunch of yes men are dangerous. .
