Saudi Arabia organizes a blockade of Qatar, a country where the US has a major military base. Kushner leads the extreme minority view in the West Wing to support the blockade. To the consternation of the State Department, Donald Trump praises the move.

MbS orchestrates a purge of the disloyal, imprisoning members of the royal family & seizing their considerable assets. The most prominent is Prince Al-Waleed bin Talal, the 45th richest man in the world and a Trump foil.

A Qatari-funded investment company grants the bailout loan to the Kushners…the big one, for 666 Fifth Avenue.
This does not mean the Kushners don't still owe massive coin on these properties. It just buys them a little time.
