I have joined the political arena so that the powerful can no longer beat up on people who cannot defend themselves.

I think I see a tremendous amount of waste. I see a tremendous amount of job opportunities that have been let go for many years, and I'm not just talking about President Obama. I'm talking about for many, many years. And I was a big, big fan of Ronald Reagan, but I was a never big fan on trade with respect to Ronald Reagan.

I don't make a deal with Sergeant Bergdahl, where we get Bergdahl, a traitor, and they get their five people that they most wanted. Five for one.

We need strength. We don't have it. When Jeb [Bush] comes out and he talks about the border, and I saw it and I was witness to it, and so was everyone else, and I was standing there, "they come across as an act of love," he's saying the same thing right now with radical Islam.

In the end, you're measured not by how much you undertake but by what you finally accomplish.

I was the one that got him [Barack Obama] to produce the birth certificate. And I think I did a good job.

I have no relationship to Russia whatsoever.
