There has been a distinction that I have followed throughout, which is that I keep the focus on issues and substance, so I'm happy to draw distinction with Donald Trump on the issues.

I'll tell ya', as President, every single day I will wake up fighting radical Islamic terrorism and working to defeat it.

Enough is enough. How about a president that actually stands up and defends this country?

We need a commander-in-chief who is actually focused on keeping this country safe.

We are competing to win the nomination. John Kasich went 0 for 27. He lost 27 states in a row.

I think it is possible to walk and chew gum at the same time.

I think our wives, I think our kids should be off limits. They don't belong in the attacks.

Legal, good. Illegal, bad. It's amazing how many folks in politics, how many folks in the media have trouble understanding that.

Our immigration laws should benefit American workers. That should be the focus of immigration laws.

I think we need a president, we need an administration that takes the burdens off farmers so that it is easier to do your job which is incredibly important.

Listen, if you want to stop radical Islamic terrorism, the answer isn't to go hang out in random neighborhoods.

I understand that the Commissioner who works for Bill de Blasio has a political imperative. de Blasio is a left-wing radical.

Listen, you are right that after I called for increased vigilance protecting us that Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton, and New York's mayor, Bill de Blasio all attacked me.

Our preferred option is win 1,237 delegates before the convention. We are working hard to do that.

Wisconsin is a battle ground.

The culture of the campaign has been a campaign built on attacks, on insults, and I think there is no place in politics for insults, for personal attacks, for going to the gutter, and there should be no place for physical violence either.

Leave Heidi the hell alone.

These are complete made up lies. They are garbage. But you know, it's indicative of just how low Donald Trump will go.

The ad they put out was deplorable. And as soon as I saw it I denounced it.

I'm always amused when Donald doesn't know what to do, instead threatens lawsuits.

Well, as you rightly noted, I'm not in the habit of supporting people who attack my wife and attack my family. Donald Trump is not going to be the nominee we are going to beat him for this nomination.

When others go to the gutter, I have not responded in kind. Donald has shown a willingness from the very beginning of this campaign to traffic in insults and personal attacks, he's directed them at everybody else. He's directed them at me…

Donald does seem to have an issue with woman. Donald doesn't like strong women. Strong women scare Donald.

I don't make a habit out of supporting people who attack my wife and attack my family.

This 'National Enquirer' story is garbage. It is complete and utter lies. It is a tabloid smear. And it is a smear that has come from Donald Trump and his henchman.
