Wing. >> well have to see if he can make any progress on u.s./mexican relations. president pineto remains unhappy with president trump. you look at cohn leaving, the kushner and ivanka trump circle inside of this west wing is evaporating before our eyes. the moderates inside of the white house, whos there, peter navarro, steven miller, that has real political consequence, it also has a consequence for kushner and his wife. where do they fit now in this west wing run by a nonideological chief of ...
