The Senate will be a less august chamber without you, sir.

We need to make clear that that is inconsistent with democratic values and inconsistent with commitments that have been made.

If you just dismiss all of that and just talk politics, at some point here soon, Republicans are going to have to decide whether or not they want to be tethered to the president politically.

I will. As I mentioned in the statement, they need to know that any purchase of additional Russian weapons will result in additional CAATSA sanctions.
