Report: Kushner Urged Administration to Inflate Saudi Arms Deals
----------------------------------------------------------------

ABC News is reporting that Trump adviser and son-in-law Jared Kushner
urged the White House to inflate the numbers of a possible arms deal
with Saudi Arabia, in order to strengthen the image of the two
countries' alliance. Kushner allegedly pushed for the administration
last year to use the number of $110 billion dollars in possible arms
sales rather than the $15 billion figure officials believed was more
accurate.
