You would carpet bomb where ISIS is, not a city, but the location of the troops. You use air power directed – and you have embedded special forces to direction the air power. But the object isn’t to level a city. The object is to kill the ISIS terrorists.
We need a president who is focused on defeating every single ISIS terrorist and protecting the homeland, which should be the first priority.
President Obama fuels that perception. That will change when militants across the globe see that when you join ISIS that you are giving up your life, you are signing your death warrant.
A debate actually is a policy issue but I will say this – gosh, if you guys ask one more mean question, I may have to leave the stage.
If you can stitch together that kind of coalition with young people, bringing together conservatives and evangelicals – and I will tell you, in Iowa, we also won Reagan Democrats, working-class voters.
We’re seeing so many people come around and say, “Listen, we want a real conservative. We don’t want a Washington dealmaker who will support Democrats and cut deals to grow government and give into the cronyism and corporate welfare.”
I love Texas, I can’t wait in a couple of days to be home to the great state.
I love Texans. And Texas is clearly the crown jewel of Super Tuesday.
At the debate, Donald Trump backed off of his health care position for 20 years. For 20 years, he has agreed with Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders on socialized medicine, saying Obamacare doesn’t go far enough. He wants the government to pay for everyone’s health care and to control it.
We need a consistent conservative, someone who has stood for free market principles, who has stood for the Constitution and, critically, who stood for the working men and women of this country.
We’re seeing is young people who are optimistic, who want a future, want our constitutional rights, are coming to our campaign.
Listen, if you’re a hardworking steelworker or truck driver, that drives down your wages. That takes away your jobs.
I think we need to be fighting for the working men and women of this country, not the moneyed New York interests.
Donald Trump threatened to file a defamation suit against me for running a TV ad that consisted only entirely of his own words on national television. Now, that’s really a remarkable theory, that it is defamation to show people what he said on national TV. I think the voters are smarter than that.
Whenever anyone does as this ad does, plays the actual words of Donald Trump on national television, his response is to yell, “Liar.” Their strategy is simply to yell, “Liar, liar, liar.”
Donald Trump tweeted out to the world a quote allegedly from Senator Tom Coburn impugning my honesty. Within hours, Tom Coburn came out publicly and said, “That quote was an utter fabrication.”
If we want to defend the country, we have to defend against who’s coming in.
What the USA Freedom Act did is it did two things. Number one, it ended the federal government’s bulk collection of phone metadata of millions of law-abiding citizens.
I’m very proud to have joined with conservatives in both the Senate and the House to reform how we target bad guys.
I introduced legislation in the Senate that I believe is more narrowly focused at the actual threat, which is radical Islamic terrorism, and what my legislation would do is suspend all refugees for three years from countries where ISIS or Al Qaida control substantial territory.
