Political Quotes

On the recordMarch 2, 2021
Which is it? For 3 months, the Democrats told us the 2020 election was fine. There was no need for an investigation. It was flawless. But, today, they tell us we need to change election law with an 800-page bill. Think about it. We need all of this? 800 pages to fix a flawless election? Maybe something else is going on here. Last year, COVID was the pretext for making changes to election law. Partisan courts and partisan secretaries of State went around State legislatures in an unconstitutional fashion and changed election law in some States, and now they want to make sure those unconstitutional changes in a few States become the law in all States. That is what this is about. This isn't the first time Democrats have tried to have it both ways, talked out of both sides of their mouth. Remember what they said. Democrats said: Republicans tried to overturn the will of the people on January 6, 2021, when we objected to six States. But on January 6, 2017, they objected to ten states. The Democrat chair of the Rules Committee objected to Alabama, a State President Trump won by 30 points. The lead impeachment manager objected to Florida, and the chairwoman of the Financial Services Committee objected to Wyoming. For goodness sake, a State that President Trump won by 40 points. They tried to overturn the will of the people in Wyoming. We know what this is about. This is about raw politics, and we should all vote ``no.''
