Propane Jane: What's scary to me is that Putin, sitting all the way on the other side of the world, is looking at us, saying, "This is where they are; this was their reaction to a black President; I'm going to stir them up via racism & misogyny."

Rep. John Delaney: I'm the only candidate who's focused on small-town America. My campaign is about people's jobs & their pay; their kids in public schools; whether there'll be jobs for their kids. Kitchen table issues.

Richard Ojeda: I feel bad for the soldiers who enlisted right after 9/11--they've been sent to combat zones four, five times, and for what--to protect contractors who're making tons of money. It's time to get our soldiers out of there; bring them home.

Bethany Dreyfus: The Trump admin has been attacking science, gutting EPA administration. It's easy to attack workers in the abstract but the public wants to know their water and air are safe--we're the ones who make that happen.

Joe Walsh: I hope you'll see more & more Republicans sticking their necks out to stand up against Trump. I don't think Trump will go away, even after he loses, so Repubs like me need to fight the bigoted, cruel, protectionist, nationalist party Trump wants.

Bob Ney: The General, as we know, was not a good guy. He was a bad guy; however, there was a point in time where we worked back channels with him because we were both against ISIS. Eliminating him isn't a bad thing but I question the timing & the location of it.
