More quotes by Mark Shields
Donald Trump has taken over the Republican Party. He's transformed the Republican Party.
Mark Shields
As Bill Clinton said so eloquently at the convention, during Vietnam there was a chance to serve there was a chance not to serve.
Mark Shields
Donald Trump, I hate to tell people who are concerned about it, is not going to be impeached. The American people believe in giving somebody a fair chance. He's a new president. There have been troubles, there have been problems.
Mark Shields
Mitt Romney looks like a secretary of state. He looks like the chancellor of the exchequer.
Mark Shields
The Democrats have tried the war against women in the past. It didn't really have that much traction.
Mark Shields
American education will be determined by the quality of American public education, and that's public schools that are available.
Mark Shields
The Democrats have to do what he did when [Rahm Emanuel] was chairman of the Democratic House Campaign Committee, recruit veterans, recruit football players, recruit business people. And I think that's what the job of the new party chair has to be.
Mark Shields
[Donald Trump] stood up and he said, you finally have a president, you finally have a president. I am the future.And what did he get? Hosannas and huzzahs and genuflection. It was a total takeover of the conservative movement.
Mark Shields
The problem with smear campaigns is that too often they work.
Mark Shields
I am struck the whole litany of people, especially of that era, who were involved in some scandal or another. Some of it was sexual. Some of it was more financial. And it was just all concentrated in a lot of people all at once.
Mark Shields
Democrats can have a different version of the line, or they can just say, no, we are the party of international peace and activism, and we're the party that's going to have a civilized capitalism.
Mark Shields
In the 2004 presidential election, we saw a wonderful example of citizens making contributions. In fact, individual giving to both the Kerry and Bush campaigns was the highest in our nation's history.
Mark Shields
90 percent of American schoolchildren are in public schools. And the emphasis on private schools and charter schools and parochial schools is not unimportant.
Mark Shields
You want a leader, Western leader, English-speaking? Mitt Romney.
Mark Shields
The Sheldon Adelsons, the Koch brothers, the George Soroses, what we want to try to do is force them into the parties, not so that Kasich or whoever is going to straight to them and trying to kiss up to special interests, but so the parties have the power and they can direct the money.
Mark Shields
I think an increasing number of Republicans are perplexed and actually nervous about Donald Trump and Russia, nervous in the sense that he is gratuitously giving Democrats the national security advantage, that they're standing up for the country.
Mark Shields
Human trafficking is a human tragedy. It's an outrage against any decent people.
Mark Shields
If you only make fights that you're going to win, there would be no women's vote in America, there would be no civil rights laws in the country.
Mark Shields
You've got people who didn't serve with John Kerry saying they did serve with John Kerry in the boat. With George Bush, we can't find anybody who did serve with him.
Mark Shields
Donald Trump is sounding the same theme he has sounded since May or June of 2015.
