Rep. Flores says President Trump's children should be removed from White House

By Rusty Surette | Posted: Wed 11:27 PM, Jul 12, 2017 | Updated: Thu 8:10 AM, Jul 13, 2017

A Republican U.S. Representative from the Brazos Valley believes the President's children should be removed from the White House.

Rep. Bill Flores, District 17, made the remarks on Wednesday in a telephone interview with KBTX morning news anchor Noelle Bellow. The entire interview will air Thursday morning on Brazos Valley This Morning.

"I'm going out on a limb here, but I would say that I think it would be in the President's best interest if he removed all of his children from the White House," said Rep. Flores. "Not only Donald Trump, but Ivanka and Jared Kushner."

Flores was responding to a question about Donald Trump Jr.'s meeting last summer with a Russian lawyer who promised damaging information on Hillary Clinton.

"I do find issues with the meeting. It's a meeting that should not have taken place," said. Rep. Flores. "I think he thought he was looking out for his father's best interest."

I'm gratified to hear this from a Republican office holder; disappointed (but not surprised) that more folks on Flores' side of the aisle aren't with him.
