“

Eight of us are saying let's talk, and Democrats are sitting here like middle schoolers saying no, we don't.

“

I couldn't care less who throws a private citizen a wedding after-party. … Subpoenas of presidential family members must pass a high bar. We can't let the Senate become a partisan tool used to harass private citizens in pursuit of political points. Republicans must learn the lessons of the past, we can't fall prey to Russiagate 2.0.

“

The war needs to come to an end as quickly as possible so that we can lower gas prices. … I don't know anybody that doesn't want the war to come to an end.

“

I have my notes here that I'm supposed to take questions from CNN and Politico. Anybody from CNN and Politico here? No.

“

We're actually making sure that the people receiving Obamacare subsidies are actually entitled to receive them. Amazingly, we weren't doing that before. … This is not about cutting off anybody from their benefits. It's about cutting off fraudsters from stealing from these programs. … We had a system in this country that rewarded brokers, that made people rich for enrolling fake people in programs that are meant to ensure that our fellow citizens have health care. This was a scandal.

“

[Objecting to Heinrich's GRID Savings Act after Heinrich blocked the Ratepayer Protection Act:] The term do-nothing Congress exists for a reason. We absolutely accomplished that right now.

“

[The Ratepayer Protection Act is] the most meaningful, bipartisan step Congress could take to protect the American people from higher prices for electricity. … It is a shame that this opportunity has been missed today.

“

It is simply outrageous that we have gotten to the point of consistent judicial intervention to protect this historic institution from getting bulldozed by the President. I will continue to fight for the rule of law and defend this memorial on behalf of the American people.

“

We're going to pay close attention to the administration and to see what they're going to do with these new powers.

“

The Senate let that momentum die today by allowing Democrats to set the terms of the debate when they never intended to deliver the votes. We must continue to fight to make America the world leader in crypto. … [Without a clear regulatory framework,] builders don't know whether their project is a security or a commodity or which regulator has jurisdiction.

“

The law is extremely clear: The John F. Kennedy Center is named for President Kennedy — and no one else. But President Trump is holding the Kennedy Center hostage unless he can put his name on this sacred memorial.

“

It was the most unprofessional thing that I've ever witnessed or been a part of. … He went into name-calling, from everything from trying to say that I was an obstructionist, I was dumb. … He didn't get his vanity project. He didn't get his name on it for the second time. … He said he was going to hold me responsible if something fell out of the ceiling and killed someone.

“

Personally, I feel a little bit weird about the fact that you have so many frontier AI tech companies kind of coming to the government and begging the government to regulate them. It feels a little bit to me like a bit of a Trojan horse. … It's something that we're concerned by, but we want to make sure that we actually regulate smartly. And we're thoughtful about the risk here.

“

What the president is just saying is, if you keep it going, to the American people, if you keep us in power and allow us to continue to do these things, then you're gonna share in some of the benefit of this incredible wealth that we're creating.

“

I will get a bill ready so that we can get the Trump Dividend passed immediately after the November 3rd election … because Republicans (and America) will win!

“

The Democrats are the party of hatred. They're the party that despises America and the people who built it. … I'm not asking anybody to agree with me on every single issue.

“

If you love Mexico so much, get your ass over there. I'll buy you the plane ticket.

“

While attending the Canfield Fair, an armed individual lunged at Dr. Acton, injuring multiple people. Dr. Acton and Eric are grateful for the swift and decisive action of law enforcement and are praying for the recovery of those injured. This kind of violence has no place in Ohio. Dr. Acton will always stand up to the chaos, hate and vitriol that pits us against one another.

“

Violence or the threat of violence at political or public events is always unacceptable. We are grateful for the quick work of the Ohio State Highway Patrol and other law enforcement on the scene.

“

Tina and I are disturbed by the attempted attack on Amy Acton today at the Canfield Fair. We are grateful for law enforcement's quick response. There is no place for this kind of behavior, and it must never be tolerated.

“

The attempted violence directed at Dr. Acton is unacceptable — political violence of any kind has no place in Ohio or our nation.

“

Candidates should be able to meet with voters without having to worry about threats or violence. What happened today is completely unacceptable and has no place in politics, and we hope that no one was hurt.

“

Connie and I are grateful that Dr. Acton and all involved are safe, and we thank the Ohio law enforcement officers for their quick and professional response.

“

I’m extremely skeptical of this. We’re investigating it because obviously we care, we want to know.

“

I wouldn’t call it a war. Right now, there is no active shooting.

“

The president and I can go and make that argument on national TV. We don't need a congressman in a tight race to be there in all cases. Sometimes it might be better if that guy's out there raising money.

“

I wouldn't call it a war. Right now, there is no active shooting. I recognize there have been places where this has flared up.

“

When you ask, when will this end, you're asking me a question, like, 'When will the Iranians stop shooting at ships?' I think the reality is, I don't know the answer to that question. You would have to ask the Iranians.

“

We will certainly work that on the back end.

“

Our view, and this has been a consistent message from the president and the rest of the administration on down, is that we believe that the Fed should be lowering interest rates.
