I don't see anything in the Mueller leaks and other information that's been out there that rises to this level at this point.
Rick Santorum
The Public Record
Rick Santorum is a former U.S. Senator from Pennsylvania, serving from 1995 to 2007. A member of the Republican Party, he was known for his conservative positions on social issues, including opposition to abortion and same-sex marriage. During his tenure, Santorum was involved in various legislative efforts, including those related to healthcare and education reform. He gained national prominence during his 2012 presidential campaign, where he focused on issues such as economic growth and family values.
Look, for the president, this comes down to two things -- number one, impeachment. And the House is going to do what the House is going to do. The Senate will never, at least given the current state of play right now, is not going to come…
So the idea that this is a policy discussion, it's not. This is purely political. I think the president in that regard has to stand firm.
I think the demographics for Republicans are a challenge, and I think the approach that Donald Trump has taken is really the solution to this problem, and that is to appeal to blue collar working people of all races, colors, creeds.
It's going to be obvious that the best way to do that is to do all the harassment, maybe even -- there may be some smoke of impeachment or even some discussion, but the idea of actually trying to force an impeachment resolution in the…
The chance to beat Donald Trump is not going to be through impeachment.
It just -- again, the only thing that makes sense to me on the face of it was, well, maybe he forgot. But now he stepped in front of 'judge and said, nope, I lied and I intended to.
I just can't wait for the Mueller -- this Mueller report to come out so some of the pieces start to fit together.
I think the judge had every right to be upset and to say -- well, I don't think it was treason, but I do believe it's a serious offense.
If you take Michael Flynn at his word in front of the judge, that he knew he was lying and deliberately lied -- again, I don't understand why he would have, it doesn't make sense to me.
If FEC violations, campaign finance violations being the cause when almost every political campaign has some sort of, you know, illegality when it comes to the way they operate their campaign.
The bottom line is here, I think the greatest damage that's been done is Donald Trump doing what you just said, out there spinning different story after different story, not telling the truth.
The remedy here for -- with Donald Trump is if he's, quote, guilty of these campaign finance violations is to go after him through the impeachment process.
I think Bob Mueller has a political motive here and I do believe the Justice Department is very much targeted in --
I don't think most Republicans and I talked to a lot of them, are concerned the president is going to do anything to stop the Mueller investigation because they know that would be a cataclysmic disaster for the president to do.
This is a quixotic venture on his part to show that, you know, he's standing up to the president because he's running -- he thinks he's running for president in 2020.
The president is not going to sign that bill, and there's not enough to override the president's veto on this.
I think Rod Rosenstein has made a lot of bad decisions as deputy attorney general.
Donald Trump shouldn't worry so much about G.M.. I mean, look, factories will close. I mean, I don't think he can go out -- he didn't campaign and say no factory will close.
I think Cindy Hyde-Smith is going to win this race, but this is not it. I mean, this is not going to be a great night for Republicans.
The side show that goes on every day in the White House has a corrosive effect on our ability to win races.
It's absurd. At the worst-case scenario they say, it's a 10 percent reduction in economic -- you can't even tell us what the GDP is going to be next year.
The fact that the United States doesn't sign on to this doesn't stop China from doing things.
I think what he was clearly saying is, look, we have done a good job in this country reducing air emissions and cleaning up things.
