US President Donald Trump's son-in-law and senior adviser, Jared Kushner, said black people must "want to be successful" in order for the administration's policies to help them.

"One thing we've seen in a lot of the black community, which is mostly Democrat, is that President Trump's policies are the policies that can help people break out of the problems that they're complaining about," Kushner said Monday on Fox & Friends. "But he can't want them to be successful more than they want to be successful."
