Ivanka Trump and her husband, Jared Kushner, were just called out on X, formerly Twitter, by Donald Trump’s niece, Mary Trump, for their “tone deaf” comments about success. Jared Kushner was a guest on Lex Fridman’s podcast back in October 2023, and after Ivanka posted a clip of it with the caption, “I’ve received a remarkable number of gracious compliments on @jaredkushner’s recent in-depth discussion with @lexfridman,” Mary Trump—and many of her supporters—spoke out. Keep reading for more information.
Ivanka Trump posted a clip of her husband speaking in an interview with Lex Fridman, who has a podcast called the Lex Fridman Podcast, where he interviews guests about all things relating to science, technology, sports, and/or politics. In the video, Kushner talks about determination in achieving goals: “If you want to accomplish something, you just have to go at it,” Jared says at the end of the clip.
While he does acknowledge that he was born into a lot of wealth and opportunity—”I say this as somebody who’s been so blessed with so many things in life”—he also implies that some people just aren’t trying hard enough to be successful.
“A lot of people I hear they complain about what other people do or why it’s hard or why it’s impossible… When I’ve had challenges or things I’ve wanted to achieve, I just focus and say, ‘What can I do?'”
Ivanka shared a message along with the clip, writing, “I personally love this clip as it reveals the determined optimist who firmly believes that there’s always a solution if you’re willing to try enough paths. I love this about Jared… and it’s a good reminder as we start the new year!”
But not everyone got the same message out of that clip.
