Aggressively targeting China should be the top priority in U.S. sanctions policy.

I find it embarrassing. I think it is antithetical to our strategic interests.

I think they have to be accounted for more directly.

boy, I will tell you, that is a heavy lift sometimes.

I would say that politics is a tough game.

I do not like going to a country in which we sit down with the leader, and we do not have an ambassador there.

boy, I will tell you, that is a heavy lift sometimes.

It is time for our Government to wake up to the real challenges China presents and start taking concrete action.

this is a huge bipartisan victory, really, for Congress, and I think probably most Americans do not have a full appreciation of how important the Pacific Region is as far as our competition with China is concerned.

The Administration wrongfully insisted it is winning the competition with China. Not so.

The days of admiring the problem from afar must be over.

This was not a good idea, which is an understatement.

I find this preposterous.

I do think, and I will just state clearly that Iran is an implacable foe of the United States.

The Administration's record is dismal. China is tightening its linkages with our adversaries, and the Administration is doing almost nothing about it.

China's ambitions are global. It is proactive in every region and reaps strategic benefit from chaos in Europe and the Middle East.

Look, Congress recently passed legislation on a bipartisan basis to sanction China for the oil purchases.

Talking about a treaty without strong action only encourages China to further test U.S. resolve.
