Republican Senator Dave McCormick was on “Fox News Sunday” with host Shannon Bream to discuss numerous topics, including Hamas, the future of TikTok, and national security.
Senator McCormick shared his optimism for the future of the US since President Trump is ready to take office.
“You can just feel it in Washington, we talked about this, this sense of enthusiasm and optimism. That we are entering a new phase of security and prosperity. And so, I am excited to be here and excited to be a part of it,” McCormick said.
McCormick also talked about Hamas and emphasized the need to permanently get rid of them.
“We would not be in this position had President Trump not assumed the Presidency because that changed the negotiating dynamic,” McCormick said.
“The ceasefire won’t be sustained unless all the hostages come home,” McCormick said.
“You can’t live 600 feet away from people that want to slit your throat in the middle of the night and so Hamas has to be eradicated and this cease fire is hopefully the first step,” McCormick continued.
Senator McCormick also discussed TikTok’s future under potential negotiations with President Trump on partial US ownership of the site.
“I want to jump to our other headline this morning about TikTok going dark. There are millions of people very upset, distraught about this across the country,” Bream said.
“We are getting news this morning that President Trump maybe willing to work out a deal where there is still some level of Chinese ownership as long as there are firewalls there,” Bream continued.
“I think it’s clear that from a national security perspective you cannot have the communist Chinese controlling and owning TikTok when we have a 170 million users in the United States,” McCormick said.
“The law essentially requires a pause, that’s what we are in now, a pause unless there is a divestiture that puts it outside the control of the communist Chinese,” McCormick continued.
“It’s gonna require a great deal making, I can’t think of anybody better than President Trump to be able to find some sort of negotiated solution, but what that will be, I don’t know,” McCormick continued.
