“Right — he negotiated all that by himself. LOL.”
He negotiated all that. Right. Henry Kissinger never did as much, and he had a support team behind him, too.

“I said at the time that the guy was a lightweight”
Which says more about you than Jared. Had he belted the fellow passenger in the mouth, he would never have lived that down, and would have been out of the administration, and back in Jerusalem with his wife, living the life of an Israeli.
Odd. This is the first I ever heard of the incident, because Jared did exactly what he was supposed to, and let the idiot blather, so long as he wasn’t threatening anyone. When you’re in the public eye, representing a super power, that is the wisest course.
This is exactly why I describe the guy as a lightweight -- not a physical one, but a MENTAL one.
Someone who faces such asymmetrical consequences in a public confrontation has no business flying on a commercial flight in the first place -- in the COACH section of the aircraft, no less.
And we're talking about someone who allegedly had a net worth about $800 million at the time.
That entire Kushner family is the stuff of legends (and not in a good way) in New Jersey real estate circles.
