More quotes by Tim Kaine
Midterm elections for first-term presidents are notoriously difficult.
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
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
A president should take action to defend the United States against eminent threat. You have to. The president has to do that.
Tim Kaine
Most evil in the world is only partly because of an evil person. Most of it is because of the complicity of bystanders.
Tim Kaine
I'm not a Hillary Clinton defender. I'm a Hillary Clinton promoter.
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.
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
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.
Tim Kaine
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.
Tim Kaine
This is one where you can just kind of go to the tape on it. But Governor [Mike] Pence said inarguably Vladimir Putin is a better leader than President [Barack] Obama.
Tim Kaine
I ask the GOP leaders also to stand up for the integrity of the American electoral process.
Tim Kaine
If somebody comes before me and I think that they will do a good job in fulfilling the mission - even if I might not have nominated them - if I think they're gonna do a good job, I vote for 'em.
Tim Kaine
I'm very, very serious about my Catholicism and Hillary Clinton views that as a real asset. And we've talked about our faith lives, as she asked me to be on the ticket with her.
Tim Kaine
In fact, that's a great thing about America and even about being Catholic, we have plenty of opinions.
Tim Kaine
But people ought to be proud to be Democrats right now. You know, we're a happy warrior party. And this Congress has every reason to be very, very proud of the heavy lifting that they have done.
Tim Kaine
You don't need to apologize for an opinion, but in terms of respect for the church and people's faith lives, Hillary Clinton has that respect, because it's what motivates her.
Tim Kaine
My sense is that economic anxiety means electoral volatility.
Tim Kaine
Here's what people should look at as they look at a public servant. Do they have a passion in their life that showed up before they were in public life? And have they held onto that passion throughout their life, regardless of whether they were in office or not, succeeding or failing?
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.
