Ivanka Trump might leave White House if father wins 2020

President Trump's adviser and daughter Ivanka Trump signaled in a new interview that she could leave the White House if her father is reelected in 2020, reports The Hill. 

Asked in a CBS interview whether she would remain in the administration if her father wins the election, Ivanka Trump said she is "driven first and foremost by my kids and their happiness."

"My decisions will always be flexible enough to ensure that their needs are being considered first and foremost," she said. "So they will really drive that answer for me."

"I think for me, I came down here - it's about the impact," she continued. "It's about being able to deliver for the forgotten men and women that I met over the course of two years as I campaigned around this country. And over the last two and a half years as I've traveled to almost every state in this nation. It's about providing pathways to opportunity."

But the White House adviser added that the work is "unfinished."

"We've done so much, but it's not enough yet," she said. 

CBS's Margaret Brennan also asked Ivanka Trump whether she would consider running for office, to which she replied, "For me ... the politics is truthfully less interesting."

The interview was taped on Dec. 19, and Trump's full discussion with Brennan will air Sunday.
