We Don’t Need Anybody To Run Our Country -- Ben Sasse
Nebraska Republican Senator Ben Sasse was in Iowa this week talking about why Donald Trump is not a conservative.
CHUCK TODD: “And you believe Donald Trump is simply not a conservative?”
BEN SASSE: “Hey, listen, what Donald Trump has actually said out there is ‘when I’m president I’ll be able to do whatever I want.’ No, that’s not the American way. The American tradition is to say the executive branch is to faithfully execute the laws not try to run the country. We don’t need anybody to run our country. We need Washington to faithfully execute the laws and reaffirm American greatness, which is in the communities of Nebraska and Iowa.”
Senator Sasse told MSNBC's Chuck Todd that we can make America great again by returning power to the people and communities.
“Government is not the author or source of our rights and you don’t make America great again by giving more power to one guy in Washington, DC. You make America great again by recovering a constitutional republic where Washington is populated by people who are servant leaders, who want to return power to the people and to the communities. Because what’s great in America is the Rotary Club, its small businesses, its churches, its schools, its fire departments and its Little Leagues across this country. What makes America great is not some guy in Washington who says ‘if I had more power I could fix it all unilaterally.’ That’s not the American tradition.”
Sasse defined 21st Century conservatism.
“America is the most exceptional nation in the history of the world because the US Constitution is the best political document that’s ever been written. Because it says something different than almost any people in any government has believed in human history. Most governments in the past said might makes right and the King has all the power and the people are dependent subjects. And the American founders said no. God gives us rights by nature and government is just our shared project to secure those rights.”
