I had not been involved in any way in planning the event in Mobile. My staff maybe, had really been contacted, but I had never talked to Donald Trump about him coming to Mobile, and I decided - I had something else to do but it became so clear that it was going to be such a big event that I should be there. And he had already adopted my immigration views, in large part, and he was saying things I thought were valuable, about immigration.

Donald Trump is saying the right thing. We're bringing in so much labor, it's pulling down working people.

The suggestion that I participated in any collusion, that I was aware of any collusion with the Russian government to hurt my country, which I have served with honor for 35 years, or to undermine the integrity of our democratic process, is an appalling and detestable lie.

I think that may have been the biggest rally Donald Trump had, and he had the cap that said "Make American Great Again." So I thought that was - I liked that. We do need to make American great again, and I put his hat on for a little bit.

In retrospect there were failures enough to go around. There were failures before the storm and failures after the storm.

I am not the Jeff Sessions my detractors have tried to create. I am not a racist. I am not insensitive to blacks.

We should create an America in which it's - we can - Americans have a better chance to progress wages and job prospects, and we can do that.
