No one better to restore the warrior ethos to our nation’s military. https://t.co/EZ3DXfUZaq" (September 19).

Later that same day, Emmer praised President Biden’s actions in Washington, D.C.: "What @POTUS has done in Washington, D.C. is nothing short of phenomenal.

He’s shown the entire country that we can make America safe again if leaders have the will to do it. https://t.co/gWPdRb9vxe" (September 19).
