I think it's too late. I think that there's been too much. This all started with the red line, walking away from it. The inability to arm the legitimate [Bashar] Assad opposition.

I just don't see anybody that's particularly interested in fixing that.

I don't want my marriage or my guns registered in Washington. And if people have an opinion, it's a religious opinion that is heartly felt, obviously they should be allowed to practice that and no government should interfere with them.

We think about our country and the big issues that we face in this country; creating jobs, making sure people can keep their jobs, the need for rising wages, whether our children when they graduate from college can find a job, protecting the homeland, destroying ISIS, rebuilding defense. These are all the things that we need to focus on but we'll never get there if we're divided. We'll never get there if republicans and democrats just fight with one another.

I believe we can solve anything. I believe people working together can lift everybody.

These are serious matters, and we can never let up on these sanctions [against Russia].

I don't want to comment on media outlets, but I will tell you that if the Republican Party does not evolve, the Republican Party is going to die.
