WASHINGTON (Reuters) -Charles Kushner, the father of President Donald Trump's son-in-law Jared Kushner, told U.S. senators on Thursday he could be trusted to exercise good judgment if confirmed as U.S. ambassador to France, despite his past conviction for tax evasion and witness tampering and other federal charges.
"I made a very, very, very serious mistake and I paid a heavy price for that mistake," Kushner, a wealthy real estate developer, said during a hearing before the Senate Foreign Relations Committee.
