Mazie Hirono: ‘When They Go Low, We Fight Back’

Monday on CNN’s “The Situation Room,” Sen. Mazie Hirono (D-HI) said when Republicans go low, Democrats should “fight back.”

Partial transcript as follows:

BLITZER:  What does it say to you, Senator, about Democrats if these midterm elections, and if it is a referendum on the president, your party still can’t win control of the Senate?

HIRONO: That means that we just have to keep fighting. This idea that when they go low —when they go low, we fight back and that’s what we have to do. Because clearly, with the 2020 elections coming up — and I’m certainly not going to concede we’re going to lose the House or the Senate. With the 2020 elections coming up, we have to get our message out even stronger than ever that there is danger with this administration and with this run-away president.
