Political Quotes

“Earlier this week, the President put the ``hel'' and the ``sink'' back in ``Helsinki'' because our Republic is sinking under the weight of his radical actions in capitulating to Vladimir Putin in the eyes of the world. Now, some of my colleagues have called this appeasement. I want to correct that. Appeasement is a misguided policy where you give concessions in order to try to make peace and stability with a dangerous, aggressive foreign power. This was not appeasement. This was simple surrender. The President wasn't trying to make peace with a hostile power. He was trying to capitulate and have us go over to the other side of the hostile power. The President has sided with authoritarianism, with every kleptocrat, dictator, despot, and tyrant on the planet Earth today. We the people of the United States and we in Congress have a responsibility now to defend American constitutional democracy. We must invest in our elections and fortify our elections so we can begin to restore the principles we have lost under the terrible leadership of Donald Trump. ____________________”
