This week’s quote comes to us from none other than Donald J, Trump, Jr. In his podcast this week he discussed potential running mates for his father and he had this to say when he came to Marco Rubio:
“By the time my father’s hand moves off the Bible in the swearing-in process, the second it moves off, it would be like, ‘Impeachment!'” he said. “There’s something about having someone outside the establishment to sort of further protect you from that establishment.”
