- [on Donald Trump, January 2021] Pressuring an election official to 'find the votes" so he can win is potentially criminal. And another flagrant abuse of power by a corrupt man who would be a despot if we allowed him. We will not.
- The indictment of a former president is unprecedented. But so too is the unlawful conduct in which Trump has been engaged. A nation of laws must hold the rich and powerful accountable, even when they hold high office. Especially when they do. To do otherwise is not democracy.
- [2024] The precedent of giving blanket pardons, preemptive blanket pardons on the way out of an administration, I think is a precedent we don't want to set.
