let me just say this: I think it is important for us to know that justice knows no party. If Republicans have done wrong, let them pay the price. If Democrats have done wrong, let them pay the price. Whether the person is popular or not, let justice be blind, and let us do it in a bipartisan manner. These attacks on the chairman and Members of Congress and the investigators have to stop. Let us all be serious. Billy Graham, Perry Mason or Mickey Mouse, in doing the investigation of the chairman of the committee, they too would be attacked and smeared and denigrated. It is time to stop it, it is time to work together to get this thing over with so that we can go on to the business of the people: balancing the budget, protecting our streets from illegal drugs, reforming health care, preserving and protecting Medicare and Social Security, and doing all of the important things we need to do. Let us get past this investigation and do the work of the great American people.

I think it's crucial that he absolutely has to fight for it. But I think the American electorate understands that he is fighting Chuck Schumer, a man who voted for the wall in 2006, along with his Senate colleague Barack Obama.
