No wonder nobody around the world is nervous about America anymore. No wonder we're not intimidating our adversaries and they're running around wild in the world, because they know we're not investing in our defense anymore. We need to make or military strong, not to wage war, but to avoid war and to bring peace and stability in the world.

Be careful about anybody who's running for president who's going to tell you that they're going to build a wall across the entire southern border. It's not going to happen. It is the wrong message to send. And it's not going to be effective.

The American people are tired. They're tired of the bickering in Washington, D.C., and the lack of action.

Today we must make a pact with each other to end this reckless conduct with the people's government.

When I think about the folks who are out there at home tonight watching... They know that this country is not respected around the world anymore. They know that this country is pushing the middle class, the hardworking taxpayers, backwards, and they saw a president who doesn't understand their pain, and doesn't have any plan for getting away from it.

[Donald Trump] will appoint an attorney general, who will send very clear messages about how law enforcement is to be pursued in this country.

I think we have to focus,on exactly what the priorities are.
