Republican voters are fed up with Democrats and Democrat policy.
Not getting rid of [Donald] Trump because there's a slew of Republican voters that don't want to get rid of Trump.
I know the drill. [Republicans] say Donald Trump is not a Republican. They say he's a Trojan horse or he's unacceptable or he's uncouth or whatever they say.
Now we have Republicans - to one degree or another - working as hard as the Democrats are to defeat Donald Trump.
The Republicans that want to get rid of [Donald] Trump are a minority.
All of these years I've been doing my program I was under the impression the Republican Party wanted to beat Democrats. And as the years have gone by, it's become obvious to me that that's not their number one objective.
The Republican Party clearly is not interested in winning. And if you want to be even more specific than that, it is paramountly obvious that they're not even interested in defeating the Democrats.
The Republican Party is in a predicament that it made itself. It made its own bed, and now they don't want to lay in it.
The Republican Party has steadfastly sided with its donors and its lobbyists, and this is why we're where we are.
Here you have the Republican Party, and they had, what, 16, 15 candidates seek the Republican nomination? And Donald Trump won it. And they have been enraged actually since day one when Trump announced, and his statement did not result in a Trump implosion, and then future Trump statements and appearances did not result in a Trump implosion. But the candidates that the Republican Party...They thought they had the best presidential field ever, and they hated and resented Trump for that.
It's comprised of both Republicans and Democrats and their membership in this club known as the establishment, party affiliation is second or third in terms of your qualifications to be in the club.
The American people - Republican voters especially - are fed up with the status quo.
I don't think it's written in the clouds, written in stone, written in the beach. Hillary is not going to president. The Republican nominee will be, and that is why, folks, we have to be careful about who's nominated on our end.
Conservatism's not the answer. The Republican Party has to reach out, moderate and modify its views to be able to accommodate radical Democrats, minorities, and so forth.
