I would note that China has a very comprehensive and, to date, pretty successful strategy to expand their influence in the world...

One of the ones that we are succeeding on is the attitude of the people of Taiwan themselves.

I do not know that we have laid out a comprehensive strategy for supporting the people of Taiwan and the capacity of the people to determine their own destiny, but if I were to jot down several of the elements that I think would be part of…

Russia is a mafia-run gas station parading as a country.

We are united in our commitment to a free and sovereign nation in Ukraine.

I wish that political people would say, let us point out to the American people do you really want to leave if there is going to be abandonment of our principles.

I do not think that was a viable approach either in national security terms or in political terms.

We have left behind thousands, we have broken promises to friends and allies, we have abandoned women and girls there.

I, like all Americans, are very concerned about what we are seeing in social media, the impact it is having on our democracy, the disinformation that we are seeing.

Many of us have a great deal of concern about what China's ambitions might be with regards to Taiwan.

The Afghanistan withdrawal was a very sad day in American history and in human history for many, many reasons.

I think we have a moral responsibility and an American commitment to help those who helped us and leave no one behind.

I would, for one, be very anxious to provide that support.

That kind of distortion of our economic system is a bad idea.

These multibillionaires are going to look and say, I don't want to invest in the stock market, because, as that goes up, I'm going to get taxed.

If there’s some people getting around the law somehow or there’s a loophole, fix the loophole. But don’t create a new tax, which is going to encourage high-income people not to invest in starting businesses, not to invest in the stock…

The amount of money he wants to spend is really an astronomical amount of money.

Just to give you some perspective, a trillion seconds ago, Neanderthals run the earth.

In this day and age for a nation to be carrying out genocide is really inexplicable.

The threat that China poses is significant and we must work with all of our interlocutors on making sure in our meetings that they understand that, despite needing the economic relations, perhaps, with the People's Republic that it is also…

I think there is a difference between leaders coming together over a social event and drinks and meetings and saying, hey, let us all agree to a 15 percent international tax rate and that actually becoming the law.

I am interested in your perspective, if you have that at this stage, about what the status of that is in Luxembourg and what you think our objectives might be with regards to communicating with Luxembourg on that topic and perhaps…

I would not want to see a circumstance where we, in our nation, took action, which would then not be matched by other nations and put our enterprises at a competitive disadvantage.

Russia, in particular, poses an ongoing threat to Europe and to places around the world.

I wonder how they square that with a relatively friendly relationship with China, China carrying out genocide.
