I'm a competitive person.

I support stem cell research, including embryonic stem cell research.

Thoughtful people of different political philosophies can disagree, but in a very agreeable manner.

Some of the most important conversations I've ever had occurred at my family's dinner table.

This is classic Donald Trump. This is the movement, not the party. He has been agitating against the leadership, the Washington establishment, the status quo, people who have held power, people that didn`t take on President Barack Obama to the extent he wanted to or the base wants to.

It's appropriate to celebrate public service, and the thoughtful people who choose to serve. They symbolize what is good and decent about this historic citizen legislature, and we thank them.
