Interview with Wall Street Journal's CEO Council - Nov. 15, 2016
November 15, 2016
INTERVIEWER: We all lived through a bit of an earthquake on Tuesday night. A couple days after the election you said—you gave a speech to the AFL-CAO—you said this, “If we’ve learned nothing else from the past two year of electioneering, we should hear the message loud and clear that the American people want Washington to change. It was clear in the Democratic primaries, it was clear in the Republican primaries, it was clear in the campaign, and it was clear on Election Day,” So how do Democrats show that […]

Remarks on President-Elect Trump - Nov. 10, 2016
November 10, 2016
Thank you very much for the introduction, Rich. Thank you all for giving me this opportunity to talk with you. We are now two days removed from an incredibly close and hard-fought election, and many people here in Washington and around the country are trying to make sense of what happened. This wasn’t a pretty election. In fact, it was ugly, and we should not sugarcoat why. Donald Trump ran a campaign that started with racial attacks and then rode the escalator down. He encouraged a toxic stew of hatred […]

As you may know by now when you attack him, he will punch back ten times harder. No matter who you are-- a man or a woman—he treats everyone equal. He’s a fighter, and if you elect him to be […]

COOPER: This has obviously been a difficult time. How are you holding up? How are you doing? MELANIA TRUMP: I'm great. I'm very strong. I'm very confident. And I live my life. I take care of myself and of our son and my husband, and I'm doing great.

2016 Senate Victory Speech - Nov. 8, 2016
November 8, 2016
Thank you, thank you, everybody. Oh, my gosh. Tonight, we showed a campaign that respects the voters and is focused on practical solutions, rather than shopworn slogans, can actually be successful. We showed that a relentless focus on rebuilding Illinois's middle class and respecting hard work, rather than wealth, can be successful, too. And while it's too early and the big race is still yet to be called, we are filled with hope that history will be made tonight. A win for Secretary Clinton is also a win for inclusiveness […]
