Democrats privately condemn party members, they mocked Trump in their speech to Congress: Report
Rohanna: Well, I don’t know why we didn’t stand up for the cancer boys in the league situation. I stand up…I think it is necessary to basically respect certain traditions and a certain level of civilization. I just don’t think – argue the facts. By the way, we should be on more shows and we may disagree… You don’t bite, don’t bite. You know, it’s one – I think you have to mix it up, you know, the reality is, there are Republicans looking at Fox, there are independents, there are Democrats. I just think we have to be willing to say we are willing to work hard. We are willing to have disputes. We are willing to express our vision and be challenged.

We need a purchase agreement for the government to purchase new industries. We need to get technology in Silicon Valley and in every community across the country. We need to provide financing for new steel and chips, and these Democrats talk about a true economic vision.
