Despite the Kushners ties to Trump and far-right politics, both Karlie and Joshua have maintained they are liberal Democrats. Speaking with Vogue in 2018, Karlie shared: “Josh and I share a lot of the same liberal values that guide our lives and the things we stand for. We’ve really grown together personally and professionally. Josh knows that I’m just a nerdy, curious human being. I think that’s why he loves me. We have each other’s back.”
Further, during an appearance on Andy Cohen’s Watch What Happens Live in 2020, Karlie shared: “I’m sure I’m not the only person in this country who does not necessarily agree with their family on politics,” and maintained: “I voted as a Democrat in 2016 and I plan to do the same in 2020.”
