Federal spending is atrocious.

Straw purchasing is illegal.

Incredible how unnecessary it [questions the legitimacy of President-elect Donald Trump] was, because John Lewis was articulating something that most Democrats simply aren't, calling Trump illegitimate.

Governor Romney has paid 100 percent of his taxes that are owed. He has complied 100 percent with what the law requires.

I'm not just going to go on these fishing expeditions. I didn't do that with President Obama. We didn't go through this with President [Barack] Obama. I think the world and certainly the American voters understand that Donald Trump has mass holdings. He's worth billions of dollars. He's been very successful in business. And I think the American voters understood that when they voted him in.

I mean Donald Trump is a legitimate president. He won fair and square. He didn't win the election because of Russian interference.

I'm not going to go on this fishing expedition that they want me to, that the Democrats want me to, the president has a duty and obligation to comply with the law. But again he's exempt from almost all of these things.
