President Trump quipped today that his son-in-law/senior adviser, Jared Kushner, has “become more famous than me” after appearing on the cover of last week’s edition of Time.

Uh-oh.

Trump made the remark while greeting Republican congressional leaders and White House staff before a meeting on his legislative agenda.

“Jared has actually become much more famous than me — I’m a little upset at that,” Trump said, prompting the room to erupt in laughter.

House Majority Whip Steve Scalise (R-La.) turned to Kushner and said, “That’s a badge of honor.” Kushner smiled but did not respond, according to a reporter in the room.

Of course, the last time Trump uttered those words, it didn’t end well for the person he said them to.

During a reception for law enforcement officials two days after his inauguration, Trump singled out James Comey, saying, “he’s become more famous than me,” before calling him over for a handshake and hug.

Kind of like a mob boss giving the kiss of death, eh?
