Donald Trump

In order to reduce our payroll, absolutely.

I want to thank him, because we're trying to cut down our payroll.

I'm not going to rule a military option. We have many options for Venezuela.

We will stop racing to topple foreign regimes that we know nothing about that we shouldn't be involved with.

I think you know the answer to that.

Nobody loves a peaceful solution better than President Trump, that I can tell you.

Well, I think it's pretty obvious. So we are looking at that very carefully and I hope that they are going to fully understand the gravity of what I said and what I said is what I mean.

I'm not going to do what they did.

It's fine. It is what it is. It's fine. Everybody said there's no collusion. You look at the councils that come in, we have a Senate hearing, we have judiciary, we have intelligence and we have a House hearing and everybody walks out, even…

The people that were questioning that statement, was it too tough? Maybe it wasn't tough enough. They've been doing this to our country for a long time, for many years and it's about time that somebody stuck up for the people of this…

Now, as far as somebody else, where did they file the right papers or did they forget to file a paper? You know, I guarantee, if you went around and looked at everybody that made a speech or whatever these people did, that's up to them…

I thought it was a very, very strong signal or whatever. I know Mr. Manafort -- haven't spoken to him in a long time, but I know he was with the campaign, as you know, for a very short period of time, relatively short period of time. But…

He's not going to go around threatening Guam, and he's not going to threaten the United States, and he's not going to threaten Japan, and he's not going to threaten South Korea.

We're going to look at what's happening in Asia. We're looking at it right now.

It's fine. It is what it is. It's fine. He's working hard on the border. I'm very proud of what we've done on the border. Very proud of General Kelly what he's done on the border. One of the reasons he's my chief of staff right now is…

The first order I gave to my generals, and, you know, my first order was, I want this, our nuclear arsenal to be the biggest and the finest in the world. We've spend a lot of money, a lot of time, and a lot of effort, and it's in tip-top…

He has disrespected our country greatly. He has said things that are horrific.

At home and abroad a mess. It's a mess. And believe me, I and we inherited one big mess. That I can tell you.

I want to thank him, because we're trying to cut down on payroll. And as far as I'm concerned, I'm very thankful that he let go of a large number of people because -- now we have a smaller payroll. There's no real reason for them to go…

We're backed by 100 percent by our military. We're backed by everybody, and we're backed by many other leaders.

And frankly, the people that were questioning that statement, was it too tough? Maybe it wasn't tough enough.

If he doesn't get repeal and replace done, and if he doesn't get taxes done, meaning cuts and reform, and if he doesn't get a very easy one to get done, infrastructure, he doesn't get them done, then you can ask me that question.

Mitch, get to work and let's get it done. They should have had this last one done. They lost by one vote, for a thing like that to happen is a disgrace. And frankly, it shouldn't have happened.

North Korea best not make any more threats to the United States. They will be met with fire and fury like the world has never seen.

North Korea steps right over President Trump's redline.
