And what you`re seeing I think is folks, especially in my party are looking at Donald Trump as damaged. And as well, something that might weigh down the party going into the midterms and into 2024.

If you take what Cassidy Hutchinson said at face value then Donald Trump knew that the protesters had weapons and encouraged them to go to the Capitol anyway, that was stunning to me.

But after yesterday when she testified that he knew that there were guns on property and that he still encouraged people to go down to the Capital, that certainly changes my mind.

He, Trump, needs to stop this now.

I think we are all familiar with the term. Honestly I think you are seeing some of it now.

I wish we could agree that we would rather spend it on doing things than paying off debt in the past.

I just think this is absolutely shameful. I really do.

I think you would see less inflation, I think you would see more private investment.

But, yes, it has always surprised me how that history has been revised, the history has been portrayed that it was because of the fight, because of the debt ceiling fight that we got the downgrade.

You know what? I think this is the most important topic that we should be talking about today.

Look, what is - Mike Pence is a nice guy. But what is Mike Pence offering that 15 other Republicans, in the field, they're not offering?

freedom of expression, it's a fundamental right.

We believe that it is the role and responsibility of government to make these determinations.

Eventually we are going to balance the budget. It is either going to be through proper congressionally driven avenue, or it is going to be printing a bunch of money.

The reason you're -- you're seeing so much attention to it today is they think this is what's going to bring down the president. That's what this is all about.

a wonderful way to streamline government and do what we haven't been able to do in a long time.

If we're going to sacrifice the national security of the country if we're going to withhold military aid. If we're going to bestow favors in U.S. resources to countries where the President has investments, is that what we want driving U.S…

It will mean heretofore that when a president is impeached that one party can deny the other witnesses, and that will be the new normal that would be trials without witnesses.

We do that all the time with foreign policy.

So that was -- those were the driving factors that he also mentioned to me in past that the corruption related to the DNC server? Absolutely, no question about that. But that's it, that's why we held up the money.

Again, I was involved with the process by which the money was held up temporarily.

We do that all the time with foreign policy. I have news for you. Get over it.

There's going to be political influence in foreign policy.

The look back to what happened in 2016 certainly was - was part of the thing that he was worried about in corruption with that nation, and that is absolutely appropriate.
