Senator Fischer: ‘Marco Is Entirely Correct’ that Obama Is Trying to Destroy America

RUSH TRANSCRIPT:

HEMMER: “OK. What about that? Nebraska Senator Deb Fischer, senate armed services committee, Marco Rubio supporter here to defend him. Thanks for making time for us on ‘America’s newsroom.’
FISCHER: “My pleasure.”
HEMMER: “Chris Christie said, I told you he would not be ready. What would you say to the new jersey positive after that back and forth?”
FISCHER: “I would say Marco is entire correct during that debate. President Obama came in with his agenda, his way. He has not reached out. He has not tried to build consensus. I serve in the senate with Marco Rubio. We understand that. This is man came in with an agenda and he is trying to change things.”
HEMMER: “Why didn’t he say, who on this stage disagrees with me? Probably if he said that he would have shut down Chris Christie and probably won the moment. Have you thought about that?”
FISCHER: “You know, debates, there is flowing and ebbing with debates. I would say to you that Nebraskans and I believe Americans are not focused how that was said. They’re focused on what Marco Rubio does. He inspires people. He is strong on national security. He understands the threats to this country. I do serve on the armed services committee and I chair the subcommittee on emerging threats. I know what the challenges are out there that we face. And no one knows these threats better, no one knows the challenges that we have in the world today, the dangerous world we face than Marco Rubio. That’s why I’m supporting him. He will be a strong commander-in-chief. He will keep us safe. He will keep our country safe. He will keep our families safe.”
HEMMER: “Just one last thing on the whole point about these closing 48 hours. You have all the voters who tell us they’re undecided and undeclared here in New Hampshire. You wonder how much of a mark that leaves, senator?”
FISCHER: “I believe that voters in New Hampshire are just like voters in Nebraska. They are informed, they are interested, and they’re listening to what the candidates are saying. They want to see somebody who has a plan. They want to see somebody who is talking about the issues. They want to listen to somebody who’s positive. Marco Rubio is running a positive campaign. He is providing this country with a vision, with enthusiasm, with really a voice that shows that we can be better. We’re going to have a better, brighter future in this country. Marco Rubio is a trusted leader. He is going to lead us there.”
HEMMER: “We’ll see how he does on Tuesday, senator. Thank you for coming in today. A Rubio supporter, Deb Fischer from Nebraska.”
