For a bill to become law, it truly has to be the will of the people, and for a president to stop the will of the people and stop what you're trying to do in your state is not the role of Washington.

South Carolinians are strong, independently-minded people. At the end of the day, they make their own decisions. And I respect them for that. And I welcome that. And I told him that from the very beginning.

Do things that are uncomfortable to do. I say that because women tend to step back from things that they don't know about. And the second, most important, one is, push through the fear.

I wear heels. It's not for a fashion statement, it's... ammunition.

Russians are concerned by North Korea. I mean there's - this is getting kind of close to home for them. And so they're concerned. And I think certainly what we're going to start doing is rallying the troops again and say, ok, what do we need to do next?

I think what you can see is this is a president of action. I mean Donald Trump is not one that's going to sit there and talk for too long. If he thinks someone is wrong, he's going to deal with it.

There's never a good time to fire someone. That's not something that anybody is - that's never going to play out well. But at the end of the day, the president has to surround himself with a team that he can trust. Donald Trump is going to surround himself with a team that he thinks is going to represent and secure the United States properly.

I don't feel like President Trump doesn't listen to me on Russia. If he had a problem with what I'm saying, he would say something. And he hasn't.

We're working better with China than we ever have. We are determined to take care of South Korea, which is why we have our mission there, working and that, as well. And then we're going to continue to take care of Japan. The entire international community isolate North Korea and let them know that this nuclear tests not acceptable.

As I said, my parents loved that when they came to America, if you worked hard, the only things that could stop you were the limits you placed on yourself.

Ann Romney makes all women proud by the way she has conducted her life as a strong woman of faith, as a mother, as a wife and as a true patriot.

What Donald Trump is trying to do is find his own team, figure out how he's going to do it. But we have to remember, he can hire and fire anybody else that he wants to do.

I assume I'm being taped everywhere, so I never worry about that.

I think when you take the job, you automatically assume that you work for the president. And you are part of a team. And loyalty is a big thing. It's, you know, as a former governor, I can tell you, loyalty and trust is everything when you're a CEO. And so I can totally understand why Donald Trump is looking for loyalty and trust.

My job is to create jobs. In the end I'm going to have jobs to show for it.

I was never that kid that wanted to be in politics. What happened was, I graduated with a degree in accounting. I came back home to the family business. I saw how hard it was to make a ­dollar, and how easy it was for the government to take it. And my mom said, Quit complaining about it. Do something about it.

There's certain things that we do work with Russia on and then there's certain things when they do something wrong, I have no problem calling them out on it.

The reason people are uncomfortable is because Donald Trump acts. He doesn't talk with a bunch of people about it before, he just acts.

All of the men have been very respectful of me. And that's what I want. They don't have to like you. But as long as they respect you, that's really important. When I speak, I'm listened to. And when I try to move the ball, I do.

What we are is serious. And you see us in action, so it's not in personas. It's in actions and it's what we do. And that's why Russia was left on an island when it came to Syria. Everyone else isolated them with their connection with Bashar Assad and Iran.

Each of these lines attempts to serve a portion of our population for which we extend our sympathy and encouragement. But nevertheless, it is only a small portion of South Carolina's chronically ill or abused. Overall, these special add-on lines distract from the agency's broader mission of protecting South Carolina's public health.
