The founders knew that foreign governments would try to meddle in our elections, meddle in our politics. And they did not want any foreign government money coming to anyone holding a position of trust with our government.

More quotes by Reince Priebus
I'm not the president, so the president, has top secret clearance immediately. I don't. It takes time.
Reince Priebus
Instead of talking about accomplishments, we are talking about stupidity and intelligence reporting that is based on facts that's not coming out of the actual heads of these intelligence agencies. And we are sitting here talking about it. And it is a shame, and it needs to end.
Reince Priebus
What hasn't been talked about a lot is that President Trump signed an order that puts in place a constant deregulatory form within the federal government. And what it says is, for every regulation presented for passage that Cabinet secretary has to identify two that person would eliminate. And that's a big deal.
Reince Priebus
We have done so many things that are noteworthy and an accomplishment one day after the next. The storyline should not be about bogus Russian spy stories. They should be that this president has accomplished more in the first 30 days of this presidency than people can possibly remember in a very long time.
Reince Priebus
People voted for Donald Trump. They want to repeal and replace ObamaCare. And we will.
Reince Priebus
Donald Trump is interesting to people. He's intriguing. But they want to see that Donald Trump in the White House. And he's getting there and he's going to pivot there.
Reince Priebus
Rhetorically, President Obama is a champion of bipartisanship. In practice, though, he is almost always its enemy.
Reince Priebus
He's a family man and a businessman. He spent his career building successful companies. Then, he saved the 2002 Olympics and brought pride to our nation. As governor, he balanced the budget, cut taxes, and created jobs. The president America needs is Mitt Romney!
Reince Priebus
To distract from the president's disappointing record, Team Obama has decided to base their entire campaign on attacking the private sector and Mitt Romney's career as a successful businessman.
Reince Priebus
Some of the conflict of interest laws do apply to the president, particularly The Emoluments Clause to The Constitution, which prohibits any type of benefit from a foreign government.
Reince Priebus
Walt Shaub is a true ethics hero for speaking out.
Reince Priebus
Moving forward, the best way is going to be something that is going to be a collective decision, that is made, of course, with President-elect [Donald] Trump having the primary say as to how to move forward. But all those opinions will be in the room.
Reince Priebus
Candidate Obama was either exceptionally naive or willfully disingenuous when he vowed to change the way Washington works. The very promise of Hope and Change was rooted in uprooting the Washington modus operandi. But instead of rejecting it, he embraced it all - the secrecy, the closed doors, the political favors, the near-criminal negligence.
Reince Priebus
What I can't do is have an intelligent conversation with [George Stephanopoulos] about a report in The New York Times that is unnamed, inconclusive, and based on something that isn't true.
Reince Priebus
I also want to make sure that when we debate these things [hackers attacks], that we actually have the facts that are very clear in front of us to have this debate.
Reince Priebus
[James Comey] term extends for some time yet. There's no plans at the moment in changing that term. And we've enjoyed our relationship with him and find him to be extraordinarily competent.
Reince Priebus
You have no idea whether the hacking even influenced the election.
Reince Priebus
The Office of Government Ethics has taken the right position on this, one consistent with many Republicans and Democrats. And by the way, OGE and Walt Shaub in particular, were very, very helpful in moving the [George W. Bush] nominees through. This is not a partisan organization at all.
Reince Priebus
Stepping back from running [Donald Trump] positions is meaningless from a conflict of interests perspective. The presidency is a full-time job and he would have had to step back anyway.
Reince Priebus
I also think we have got other great choices to make. The conclusion has not been made. There's no announcement that's coming today, as far as Secretary of State is concerned.
