They [Republican voters] believe in a foreign policy that puts America first: Give me a break. And so a lot of our drift within our party has gotten away from that.

More quotes by Jeff Sessions
[Donald] Trump is where the Republicans are, and if you're going to be a Republican leader you should be supportive of that.
Jeff Sessions
Marriage has been defined by every legislature that has ever sat in the United States from every State, now 50 States, the same way, but now we have unelected judges altering and changing that fundamental institution.
Jeff Sessions
[My father] was interested. He read the newspapers and read Time and U.S. News and World Report and people in stores would come along, you know, and they would talk politics.
Jeff Sessions
My father had a country store and then later, when I was 10 or 12, sold it and bought a farm equipment dealership in nearby Camden.
Jeff Sessions
We were segregated throughout the community, and it was pretty brutal, actually. It didn't appear to be, on the surface.People got along and we had great relationships, but there was discrimination that impacted adversely the ability of the African-American community to progress. People did not - were in denial about that fact.
Jeff Sessions
Amnesty will not help balance our budget ... In fact, a large-scale amnesty is likely to add trillions of dollars to the debt over time, accelerate Medicare's and Social Security's slide into insolvency and put enormous strain on our public-assistance programs.
Jeff Sessions
I am totally committed to maintaining the freedom and equality America has to provide to every citizen.
Jeff Sessions
I think if a candidate ran for office in most states in the country, if his opponent, or her opponent was an effective advocate against the TPP and could show, as I think we will be able to show, it's detrimental to working Americans, I think they would have a hard time getting elected.
Jeff Sessions
I had met [Donald] Trump once before, when he testified before a committee that Tom Coburn - Senator Coburn - and I hosted, to deal with excessive expenditures to refurbish the UN building in New York.
Jeff Sessions
I just want you to know that as a southerner, who actually saw discrimination and have no doubt it existed in a systematic and powerful and negative way to the people - great millions of people in the South, particularly, of America - I know that was wrong. I know we need to do better.
Jeff Sessions
Donald Trump can improve and get better as he goes along, and I think he will.
Jeff Sessions
How is it appropriate for a judge ever to say that they will choose to see some facts and not others?
Jeff Sessions
I am not the Jeff Sessions my detractors have tried to create. I am not a racist. I am not insensitive to blacks.
Jeff Sessions
We've seen what happened in Libya, what a disaster that's been driven by Hillary Clinton, and the disaster in Syria and almost disaster in Egypt. What a close call that's been. We're not out of the woods yet with Egypt.
Jeff Sessions
[Donald Trump] was a magnificent witness. The reporter, when asking me about his testimony, said, Sessions gushed about his testimony. But it was remarkable.
Jeff Sessions
I liked Donald's Trump speech on foreign policy. What he's showing is that his fundamental views are solid, and that there's an intellectual basis for this, an economic basis for what he's saying, and that can lead him to victory.
Jeff Sessions
I would acknowledge that [Paul] Ryan has some really good ideas about things, and I think they'll get together, like taxes. Larry Kudlow, Stephen Moore, they've been supportive of Ryan's tax view and now they're very supportive of [Donald] Trump's. So I think that's got potential.
Jeff Sessions
In retrospect there were failures enough to go around. There were failures before the storm and failures after the storm.
Jeff Sessions
We represent our constituents. And so they don't get to dictate policy.
Jeff Sessions
We know that a ready amnesty tends to be an invitation to more illegal entries.
