In promoting national security, economic prosperity and the sanctity of human life, conservatives made measurable gains in 2003.
I'm a small-town kid who grew up with a cornfield in the back yard and dreaming of serving my country in public office.
I've had more than a few battles with a Republican president. ... I am not immune [to] disagreeing with people who otherwise I support.
Enhanced interrogation gleaned information that saved American lives and - I was informed - prevented incoming terrorist attacks on this country from being successful.
I have a sense of this man [Donald Trump]. I have a sense of his heart.
Donald Trump understands the frustrations and the hopes of the American people.
What I'm OK with is protecting the American people. What I'm OK with is, when people have the intent to come to this country and take American lives, that we are prepared to do what's necessary to gain the information to protect the people of this country.
In fact, in Indiana we suspended the Syrian refugee program in the wake of the terrorist attack. We have no higher priority than the safety and security of the people of this country, and Donald Trump is right to articulate that view.

The choice couldn't be more clear. Americans can elect someone who literally personifies the failed establishment in Washington, D.C., or we can choose a leader who will fight every day to make America great again.
