John Thune: “I just could not agree more, and I just think those management practices that maintain a healthy forest are so…”

I’m hoping the White House will become engaged. Texas is an incredibly expensive state and obviously one that we need, that we’ve got to hold if we’re going to keep the United States Senate.

By scrambling the Democrats, we’ll spread their resources thin, making it nearly impossible for them to flip the seats they need to take the majority.

If you want to have a Republican Senate majority after the election — is not to have us turning fire on each other, but drawing contrasts with Democrats.

I’m a realist. I don’t ever try and sugarcoat things. I think it’s a competitive environment right now.
