The turnover at Newsweek was beneficial.”The Kushner camp — presented months ago with a list of questions from Ward — claims her facts are fabrications.“Every point that Ms. Ward mentioned in what she calls her ‘fact-checking’ stage is entirely false,” Peter Mirijanian, spokesman for Jared’s lawyer Abbe Lowell, told me. “It seems she has written a book of fiction rather than any serious attempt to get the facts. Correcting everything wrong would take too long and be pointless.”The publisher touted the presidential power couple known as Javanka, saying: “They are entitled inheritors of the worst kind; their combination of ignorance, arrogance and an insatiable lust for power has caused havoc all over the world, and may threaten the democracy of the United States.”But one Trump supporter pointed out that Ward might have a grudge because the then-“Celebrity Apprentice” star attacked her as a “third rate writer” when her last book, “The Liar’s Ball,” about the GM Building, which Trump once owned, came out.Trump called the 2014 book “very boring” and said, “She did a lousy job.”Ward replied, “I don’t know how serious a literary critic Donald is.”Harsher insults are on the horizon.</div></body>
