Jared Kushner hid dozens of meetings with Russians from his application for top-secret security clearance: His lawyer argues Kushner simply forgot

While I agree that his clearance should be revoked until this issue can be fully resolved, lets be honest here. It's hard to forget dozens of meetings with Russians sure, but the article its self says that the meetings weren't exclusive to Russian "officials." Jared Kushner is well known as a real estate investor and has even made the largest single property purchase in history. So as a CEO and billionaire, just how many meetings has this guy been to in the past seven years? Maybe 1-3 meetings per day for the past seven years? I'd say it's pretty easy to forget a couple dozen meetings from the five thousand or so business meetings you've attended in the past seven years. In fact, he's not even trying to hide that he met with these people. Unlike his father in law, he's actually willing to comply with the FBI.

Sure, even if he is found guilty of trying to hide these meetings nothing will happen to him. He's too rich for that, not to mention his father in law is the President. That's one hell of a conflict of interest if you ask me.
