US President Donald Trump wanted the so-called First Daughter and Mr Kushner out of Washington because of the bad press surrounding them according to the book. The book claims Trump told his then-chief of staff John Kelly, to remove them and accused them of not knowing “how to play the game”. However, a New York Times review of the book said the President’s order repeatedly changed.
Author Vicky Ward said Mr Kelly was told “Get rid of my kids. Get them back to New York”.
He told Trump it would be difficult to remove the pair who have been influential since the early days of Trump’s pre-election campaign.
Ms Ward argues in the book the couple are keen to “break protocol” and use their ties with the White House to “further their own ambitions”.
She also claims that Ms Trump made inappropriate requests to travel on Air Force planes.
