Kushner Seeks to Radically Overhaul GOP Platform

“For the past six months, top Trump campaign officials, reporting to Jared Kushner, have been working on a radical overhaul of the Republican Party platform,” Axios reports.

Kushner “has told confidants he wants to shrink the GOP’s extensive platform of policy beliefs and principles down to a single card that fits in people’s pockets. That’s a huge change. The 2016 platform runs 58 pages — the product of extensive debate and heated negotiations.”

“Kushner told colleagues he wanted ‘something like the 10 principles we believe in,’ per two sources familiar with his comments.”

“Another source familiar with the discussions pointed to the GOP platform of 1856 as an example of a platform that is similarly short.”
