Jared Kushner's videos stuck on the outside of a door are Twitter's new favorite

It's an intense week in Latin America, with hearings by Brett Kavanaugh, a bombshell against a Trump administration official and renegotiations of NAFTA. But as always, social media users have found a way to lighten the mood. On Thursday, Twitter rushed over a video of Jared Kushner stuck in front of a door and turned it into a viral meme.

According to the Huffington Post, the video shows him arriving at the US Trade Representative's (USTR) office for NAFTA negotiations. Followed by journalists shouting questions, Kushner advances towards the building and seems to try the door – which does not open – then ring a bell or a bell. No answer comes and he starts to look uncomfortable as the seconds pass and he and his bodyguard wait for the door to open. After almost two minutes, he gets on his phone, apparently to call someone inside, after which he is finally let in.

CBC / Radio-Canada reporter Katie Simpson, one of the first people to share the video, wrote that the timing was "embarrassing because it takes 2 minutes to let him in".

Twitter thought it was hilarious and turned it into the same Thursday. As the video is broadcast, a user has even nicknamed it Veep, which sometimes shows politicians doing gaffes while the credits roll.

Some users had other ideas about what he reminded them of: "I swear it's like SNL sketch!!" a user tweeted, while another wrote, "I think it's more of the clumsiness of Office. "

It was raised that it was "reminiscence" from an incident in 2005 during which President George W. Bush tried unsuccessfully to open a door while he was leaving a press conference. "I was trying to escape. It did not work," he joked.

Kushner is helping the president renegotiate NAFTA this month and, according to Axios, he is one of the few people to "have total visibility" of the negotiations. An official said The Washington Examiner that Kushner has been working on NAFTA issues since Trump took office and that he is helped by a close relationship with Mexico.

Trump announced on August 27 that the United States and Mexico had reached an agreement on the most important sections of NAFTA. Kushner was behind the president when he made the announcement, calling this moment "great day for our country".

According to Bloomberg, it is unlikely that a definitive agreement will be reached this week. This August 27th agreement did not include Canada; The United States and its northern neighbor are now working to resolve the outstanding issues before agreeing to an agreement. "One of the things that is true in any trade agreement is that nothing is done until everything is done," Canadian Foreign Minister Chrystia Freeland said Thursday by Bloomberg. . "A trade deal is about bringing all the pieces together."

CTV News reported that the negotiations lasted late into Thursday night and that they will continue on Friday. Kushner will probably be here as long as he can get in.
