Truly BIZARRE – KIM KARDASHIAN advises Trump on US domestic policy in White House meet
KIM KARDASHIAN has met with Donald Trump at the White House to advise him about prison reform - and the seemingly star-struck President immediately shared an image of the pair on social media.
The President described the encounter as a “great meeting” and posted an image of both inside the Oval Office.
Mr Trump’s son-in-law, Jared Kushner, had set up the meeting.
Mr Kushner is understood to have been engaged with the legendary personality in “months of back-channel talks”.
The reality star spent an hour at the White House on Wednesday in a meeting with Mr Kushner.
Her visit also included a conversation with Donald Trump.
In addition to matters of prison reform, the meeting was also expected to have focused on a campaign to pardon a nonviolent drug offender named Alice Marie Johnson.
Earlier in the day Kim Kardashian had wished Ms Johnson happy birthday on Twitter and insisted the day of the meeting was for her.
She wrote: “Happy Birthday Alice Marie Johnson. Today is for you.”

Alice Marie Johnson is currently serving life in prison without parole.
But Kim has taken to the case of Ms Johnson recently after a video by media outlet Mic, highlighted the case of the great-grandmother.
Kim Kardashian reportedly wanted to ask the billionaire to grant Ms Johnson clemency.
Lawyer Brittany Barnett insisted there was no better day to ask for Ms Johnson to be granted freedom than on her birthday.

She said: “Today's her birthday, so no greater gift than freedom on her birthday.”
She also told the Mail: “The message to the president is that Alice Johnson, the 21 years she has been in prison, represents a punishment that more than pays her debt to society and that to keep her prison the rest of her life is morally and economically unjustifiable.”
Without a pardon for the great-grandmother, she will spend the rest of her life in prison.
Earlier, White House press secretary Sarah Sanders had confirmed Kim Kardashian would be visiting.
She said: “She is expected to be here at the White House.
“I can confirm she'll be here.”
