When Hillary Clinton was a U.S. senator, she voted for some trade deals when they met her standards, but she voted against others when they didn't.
Tim Kaine
The Trump plan is a different plan. It's a you're fired plan. And there's two key elements to it. First, Donald Trump said wages are too high. And both Donald Trump and Mike Pence think we ought to eliminate the federal minimum wage.

I try to practice my religion in a very devout way and follow the teachings of my church in my own personal life, but I don't believe in America, a first amendment nation, where we don't raise any religion over the other, and we allow people to worship they please, that the doctrines of any religion should be mandated for everyone.
Tim Kaine
I'm really, really worried about the Trump team, and I want people on the team who I think are adults who have judgment and won't do anything stupid.
Tim Kaine
Donald Trump's idea that more nations should get nuclear weapons. Saudi Arabia, Japan, South Korea.
Tim Kaine
The thing I would worry a little bit about is Donald Trump owes about $650 million to banks, including the Bank of China. I'm not sure he could stand up so tough to the people who have loaned him money.

The current situation in Iraq is ultimately a crisis of governance, which has allowed extremist groups to take advantage of disillusioned segments of the Iraqi population.

When I was running for governor, I was attacked pretty strongly because of my position on the death penalty. But I looked the voters of Virginia in the eye and said, look, this is my religion. I'm not going to change my religious practice to get one vote, but I know how to take an oath and uphold the law. And if you elect me, I will uphold the law.

Race to race, the Republicans are putting up candidates that are quite far out of the mainstream in terms of should we have passed the Civil Rights Act or does Social Security need to exist.
Tim Kaine
In terms of what Hillary Clinton, who's running for president, thinks about Catholics and the value more broadly of having a faith background, I can tell you she views at it as a plus, just as she views her own Methodism as a plus.
Tim Kaine
Donald Trump started this campaign in 2014 he said if I run for president I'll absolutely release my taxes.
Tim Kaine
The great presidents are people who watch out for others.
Tim Kaine
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
It's immoral to ask people to risk their life.
Tim Kaine
You should live fully and with enthusiasm, the commands of your faith, but it is not the role of the public servant to mandate that for everybody else.
Tim Kaine
I accept the teachings of my own church in terms of how I live, how my wife and I live, what we teach our kids. But I don't think the teachings of my church are such that I should legislate that for everybody else.
Tim Kaine
Absolutely without firing a shot and instead of 175,000 American troops deployed overseas we now have 15,000.

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.
Tim Kaine
I am extremely energized to be in the Senate, because the Senate is the only emergency brake on the Trump train right now. And we have to use that emergency brake in a smart way to keep him from hurting our country, our reputation, our values, and our citizens.
Tim Kaine
If you just fight against everything willy-nilly, then the message is you're just gonna obstruct on anything. I would rather fight very, very hard on matters of fundamental principle and then have the critique be that Trump is violating the very foundations of America.
