What we saw with both Donald Trump and Marco Rubio, that their response, whenever you point to anything in their record, is just to yell, "Liar, liar, liar," and to get very personal and to make direct character attacks. And my approach, from the very beginning of this President's campaign, starting a year ago in 2015, is that I will not respond in kind. I do not intend to insult any of the candidates.

We need a president who is focused on defeating every single ISIS terrorist and protecting the homeland, which should be the first priority.

I salute the House for having the courage to stand up and fight and defund ObamaCare. And I remain confident, hopeful and optimistic the House will stand their ground, will continue the fight, which means this issue is coming back to the Senate. And when it comes back to the Senate, after the House stands their ground yet again, we will have an opportunity for Republicans to come home.

I know very much what I believe.

When Donald Trump is in trouble, he starts yelling, he starts screaming. He starts insulting. He starts cursing.

You don't hear me lambasting, engaging in personal attacks, getting nasty. I don't think that belongs in politics.

I think our nation faces enormous challenges, and we need leaders who are willing to tell the truth and do the right thing regardless of the consequences.
