“Jared Kushner Won’t Rule Out That Trump Could Try to Delay the Election”

Vanity Fair:

Trump son-in-law and White House adviser Jared Kushner was asked about the possibility of delaying the election Tuesday by TIME journalist Brian Bennett during a TIME100 Talks interview. And though Kushner acknowledged that the consequential move was “not [his] decision to make,” the First Son-in-Law didn’t dismiss the notion outright. “That’s too far in the future to tell. Nothing that I’m aware of now,” Kushner said about any possible plans to delay the election. When Bennett asked him if he could offer a commitment that the election would take place on November 3 as scheduled, Kushner again demurred. “It’s not my decision to make, so I’m not sure I can commit one way or the other. But right now that’s the plan,” Kushner said. “Hopefully, by the time we get to September or October or November, we’ve done enough with the testing and with all the different things we’re trying to do, to prevent an outbreak of the magnitude that would make us shut down again.”
