Representative Ken Buck said he would 'not feel comfortable with a convicted felon in the White House.'

Representative Ken Buck speaks to reporters outside the House Chambers in the U.S. Capitol Building on May 31, 2023, in Washington, D.C. Buck on Tuesday used former President Donald Trump's words about former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton against him ahead of his arraignment."I would not feel comfortable with a convicted felon in the White House, so we'll see how the case plays out. And we'll see how the evidence is presented and what the defenses are," he said.

"But let's just look at Donald Trump's words in 2016. He said that Hillary Clinton was unfit for the White House because of the way she handled classified information. He said she wasn't even able to have a low-level State Department job because of the way she handled information. I think his words have set the standard that America will look at in determining whether he is fit for president.

Rep. Ken Buck says he"won't support a convicted felon," noting Donald Trump's previous rhetoric on classified info: "He said that Hillary Clinton was unfit for the White House ... I think his words have set the standard that America will look at."
