The Conservative Movement Today Is Like That Tall Ship With Its Proud Captain: Strong, Accomplished But Veering Off Course Into The Dangerous And Uncharted Waters Of Big Government Republicanism.

Uncharted Waters

I - Do I Believe In Evolution? I Embrace The View That God Created The Heavens And The Earth, The Seas And All That's In Them.

And Conservatives Know That If You Reject These Principles Of Limited Government And Urge Others To Reject Them You Can Be My Ally, You Can Be My Friend But You Cannot Call Yourself A Conservative.

Let's Put The Safety And Security Of The American People First.

Donald Trump Is A Businessman, Not A Career Politician. He Actually Built A Business. Those Tax Returns That Were - That Came Out Publicly This Week Show That He Faced Some Pretty Tough Times 20 Years Ago. But Like Virtually Every Other Business, Including The New York Times Not Too Long Ago, He Used What's Called Net Operating Loss. We Have A Tax Code That Actually Is Designed To Encourage Entrepreneurship In This Country.

Less Than Ten Cents On The Dollar In The Clinton Foundation Has Gone To Charitable Causes.

The Sanctity Proceeds Out Of The Belief... That Ancient Principle Where God Says "before You Were Formed In The Womb I Knew You," And So For The First Time In My Public Life I Sought To Stand With Great Compassion For The Sanctity Of Life.

The American People Aren't Focused On The Debates Of The Past. They're Focused On Their Future. They're Focused On The Challenges That We're Facing At Home And Abroad.

Trump Is Committed To Being The President For Every American.

We Can Get America Moving Again, Put On Top Of That The Kind Of Trade Deals That'll Put The American Worker First, And You've Got A Prescription For Real Growth.

Both Of Us [me And Donald Trump] Were Raised To Believe That To Whom Much Is Given, Much Will Be Required. And So For The President-elect That Meant That What - He Describes Himself This Way, The Kid From Queens Would Go To Manhattan Island And Build The Big Buildings.

The Promise To Share The Burden Of Our Defense Has Gone Unfulfilled For Too Many For Too Long, And It Erodes The Very Foundation Of Nato.

We Have The Smallest Navy Since 1916, We Have The Lowest Number Of Troops Since The End Of The Second World War. We've Got To Work With The Congress And Donald Trump Will, To Rebuild Our Military And Project American Strength In The World.

Let's Be Very Clear First Off. Nothing Has Changed About Donald Trump's Position On Dealing With Illegal Immigration.

We Welcome The National Rifle Association Here To Indianapolis. It's Tens Of Thousands Of Freedom Loving Americans. I Was Grateful To Be Able To Speak To Them And Interact With Them And I Really Do Believe That The Right Of Law-abiding Citizens To Keep And Bear Arms Makes Our Communities More Safe, Not Less Safe.

The Presidency Is The Most Visible Thread That Runs Through The Tapestry Of The American Government. More Often Than Not, For Good Or For Ill, It Sets The Tone For The Other Branches And Spurs The Expectations Of The People.

[donald Trump] Is A Man Known For A Large Personality, A Colorful Style And Lots Of Charisma. And So I Guess He Was Just Looking For Some Balance On The Ticket.

I'm A Small Town Boy From A Place Not Too Different From Farmville. I Grew Up With A Corn Field In My Backyard. My Grandfather Had Emigrated To This Country When He Was About My Son's Age. My Mom And Dad Built Everything That Matters In A Small Town In Southern Indiana. They Built A Family And A Good Name And A Business, And They Raised A Family.

An Enormous Number Of People Come To The Usa Legally And Then Simply Overstay Their Visas Because We Make No Effort To Hold Them Accountable To That Or Uphold The Law.

For Me, My Faith Informs My Life.

Our Family Has Been Honored To Serve Our State And Nation. Like Many American Families, We Have Been Fortunate And Blessed To Raise Three Wonderful Children And Put Them Through College While Doing Work That We Love.
