Yesterday, we prognosticated that the handshake agreement to sell the Miami Marlins to a New York real estate developer with a liquidity problem was with a Trump. Technically we were not wrong.

Sort of.

According to Darren Rovell, the main man in the dealings is Charles Kushner, father of Trump advisor Jared Kushner and father-in-law to Ivanka Trump. Rovell writes, “It is not known whether Kushner is part of that group, or possibly another group that is interested in buying the team as the source told the AP that negotiations with other parties might eventually be reopened.” But unless there’s another New York real estate mogul with debt raising issues who feels like he could probably find a workaround because he knows a guy… it’s probably safe to say Kushner’s part of the original group.

Kushner, like current Marlins owner Jeffrey Loria, is not without controversy. As Rovell continues:

If Kushner were to be the managing partner, approval might be difficult from a public relations standpoint considering scrutiny of the Trump White House. Kushner also served time in prison for tax evasion, witness tampering and making illegal campaign contributions.

Witness tampering, in this case, means Kushner hired a prostitute to sleep with his brother-in-law (who was cooperating with authorities), recorded it, and then sent the tape to his own sister. We’re dealing with a special time of slime bucket here.

Also, as a fun side note, Kushner and Chris Christie are mortal enemies because Christie was the US Attorney who put Kushner away, which many theorize led to Christie being kicked off Trump’s transition team, which he oversaw for the better part of last year, leaving the transition and, now, the White House and potentially the world in shambles. Fun times!
