When Congressman [Mike] Pence was in Congress, he was the chief cheerleader for the privatization of Social Security. Even after President [George W.] Bush stopped pushing for it, Congressman Pence kept pushing for it.

Vladimir Putin is a dictator. He's not a leader. Anybody who thinks otherwise doesn't know Russian history and they don't know Vladimir Putin. Hillary Clinton knows exactly who this guy is. John McCain said, I look in his eyes and I see KGB. And Hillary kind of has that same feeling.

You spend your time blaming the other for what's not getting done and you actually do a couple things, and then you switch to, Hey, let's instead compete about who gets the credit for what we just did. And that's a lot more fun.
Tim Kaine
Living our lives of faith or motivation with enthusiasm and excitment, convincing each other, dialoguing with each other about important moral issues of the day, but on fundamental issues of morality, we should let women make their own decisions.
Tim Kaine
In fact, that's a great thing about America and even about being Catholic, we have plenty of opinions.
Tim Kaine
When Donald Trump says women should be punished or Mexicans are rapists and criminals or John McCain's not a hero, he is showing you who he is.
Tim Kaine
Almost always, executive orders are within an authority and always within the purview of Congress to change if they want to legislatively change it.

Tim Kaine
I will always be a partner with the president of the United States.
Tim Kaine
I'm not a Hillary Clinton defender. I'm a Hillary Clinton promoter.
Tim Kaine
I think you should live your moral values, but the last thing, the very last thing, the government should do is have laws that would punish women who make reproductive choices.
Tim Kaine
If you think of big, legislative accomplishments, most of them kind of get initiated with the president putting something out there and Congress working on it.
Tim Kaine
You build the bonds through the community and police force, build bonds of understanding, and then when people feel comfortable in their communities, that gap between the police and the communities they serve narrows. And when that gap narrows, it's safer for the communities and it's safer for the police.
Tim Kaine
I think we need to fight against Trumpism in the courts, we need to fight at the ballot box and online, and we need to do peaceful protesting. We need to use every lever at our disposal to make sure that the president doesn't hurt our country, our values, and our people.
