I have a duty to protect the Executive Branch from legislative encroachment.

When you're writing about something that happened, it helps you transition to the present.

Sometimes armchair quarterbacks are doing it to enhance their own image. I'm just not comfortable with that idea.

Leadership to me means duty, honor, country. It means character, and it means listening from time to time.

I would like to be remembered as a guy who had a set of priorities, and was willing to live by those priorities. In terms of accomplishments, my biggest accomplishment is that I kept the country safe amidst a real danger.

I think once you recognize the unconditional love of an Almighty, it tends to put joy in your heart. Which in my case, it did.

I'm going to put people in my place, so when the history of this administration is written at least there's an authoritarian voice saying exactly what happened.
