Jared Kushner has a lot going on. His father-in-law, President Donald J. Trump, has a bunch of quick tasks he'd like Jared, a White House senior advisor, to get right on.
These include:
Finally bring peace to the Middle East.
Head up an Office of American Innovation, which is tasked, in part, with tackling the country's opioid epidemic.
Advise the President during this weekend's meeting with China's President Xi Jinping.
That Kush, a 36-year-old real estate developer, has no experience in any of these areas is of no real importance to his father-in-law.
As Trump said on the campaign trail: "Jared is a great young man, went to Harvard, very smart, doing a fantastic job in business. He’s in the real estate business and has done an amazing job."
Still, the weight of these tasks, coupled with feigning respect for Steve Bannon when cameras are around, must weigh heavily on Kush's shoulders.

Jared, what do you know that we don't?
