Donald Trump [edit]

Sasse was a critic of former president Donald Trump. In 2021, when the Nebraska Republican political party considered censuring Sasse for this lack of support, Sasse responded "Politics isn't about the weird worship of 1 dude."[55]

In early 2016, during both major parties' presidential primary election seasons, Sasse announced that he would not support Trump should Trump become the party's nominee; he was the first sitting senator to brand such an proclamation.[56] Sasse questioned Trump's commitment to the U.S. Constitution, in detail accusing him of attacking the Beginning Amendment; stated that Trump had refused to condemn the Ku Klux Klan; and suggested that Trump "thinks he's running for King".[57] He stated that if Trump won the party's nomination, he would vote neither for him nor for Hillary Clinton, just would probably "look for some tertiary candidate—a conservative pick, a Constitutionalist".[57] Sasse suggested that he might leave the Republican Party, saying, "if the Republican Party becomes the party of David Duke, Donald Trump, I'm out".[58] [59]

Asked about Sasse's 3rd-party suggestion, Trump replied, "That would be the work of a loser."[59] Several Nebraska Republican politicians, amidst them Country Senators Bob Krist and Beau McCoy and U.S. Senator Deb Fischer, took exception to Sasse'due south statements. Krist called them "very immature" and said that Sasse should "quietly and in a statesmanlike mode permit the system to work out and provide the leadership that needs to be provided"; Fischer said that voting for a 3rd-party culling would produce a Clinton victory.[60] Krist later switched his registration to the Democratic Party, running as its candidate in the 2018 Nebraska gubernatorial election.

In September 2017, Sasse said he idea virtually leaving the GOP "every forenoon" and said he thought of himself as "an independent bourgeois who caucuses with the Republicans".[61] Sasse has called Trump a "megalomaniac strongman", has "chosen the president'south tariffs on steel and aluminum imports 'impaired'", and "has described Trump's escalating trade war with Prc [as] 'nuts'".[62]

In March 2018, Sasse criticized Trump for congratulating Vladimir Putin on his ballot win,[63] proverb, "The president of the Usa was incorrect to congratulate him, and the White House press secretary was wrong to duck a simple question about whether or non Putin's reelection was free and fair. It was non. The American people know that, the Russian people know that, and the world knows that. The White Business firm refused to speak directly and clearly about this thing; we were weakened as a nation, and a tyrant was strengthened."[63]

In July 2018, Politico reported that Sasse had "quietly launched a new political non-profit group, fueling speculation that he might launch a Hail Mary bid for president rather than seek another term in the Senate". But Pol also reported that Sasse and Trump were talking multiple times each calendar month.[62]

In January 2019, Sasse was one of 11 Republican senators to vote to accelerate legislation intended to block Trump's intent to lift sanctions against iii Russian companies.[64]

Sasse has been criticized for lambasting Trump but voting in line with his positions. Dick Polman of WHYY criticized Sasse as "all talk, no activity", saying that Sasse and other Republicans in Congress "continue to abet and excuse Donald Trump's relentless assaults on democratic norms and the rule of law".[65] Jennifer Rubin, in The Washington Mail, wrote that Sasse and Republicans "now face up voters increasingly upset well-nigh corruption and corruption of power, both of which volition not abate so long every bit spineless Republicans concur the majority in both houses".[66]

Sasse voted to acquit Trump in his first impeachment trial in the Senate over his request of Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky that he start an investigation into political rival Joe Biden. Sasse said, "It's clear that the president had mixed motives in his decision to temporarily withhold armed forces aid from Ukraine. The line between personal and public was not firmly safeguarded." He added that removing Trump from function would exist bad for the country in the long term and that "removal is the incorrect decision".[67] During the impeachment trial, Sasse voted not to call witnesses to bear witness.[68]

In August 2020, Sasse again came into conflict with Trump when Sasse referred to Trump's executive order authorizing stimulus after Congress failed to agree on a second COVID-19 relief bundle equally "unconstitutional slop".[69] Trump responded past calling Sasse a RINO (Republican In Name Only)[70] and maxim that Sasse had "gone rogue".[71]

In an Oct 2020 campaign town hall upshot, Sasse turned critical of Trump: "He mocks evangelicals backside closed doors. His family unit has treated the presidency like a business organization opportunity. He'southward flirted with white supremacists." He added, "The United states of america now regularly sells out our allies nether his leadership" and criticized Trump for "the way he treats women". Sasse expressed concern that Trump's "stupid political obsessions" and "rage tweeting" alienate voters.[72]

In December 2020, when Trump pardoned many people connected to himself, Sasse said, "This is rotten to the cadre."[73]

Sasse acknowledged Joe Biden's win in the 2020 presidential election[74] and condemned Trump'southward efforts to overturn the ballot results.[75] He was the first Republican to criticize Senator Josh Hawley'due south plan to challenge the results during Congress's count of the electoral votes on January half-dozen, 2021, saying such an activeness would "disenfranchise millions of Americans" and that it would "bespeak a loaded gun at the heart of legitimate cocky-authorities."[76]

Sasse was the first Republican senator to publicly support the 2021 efforts to remove Donald Trump from role, saying that he was willing to consider manufactures of impeachment because Trump had violated his oath of role.[77] Along with six other Republican senators, he voted to convict Trump in his second impeachment trial.[45] On May 27, 2021, forth with v other Republicans and all present Democrats, he voted to establish a bipartisan commission to investigate the January 6 storming of the U.Due south. Capitol. The vote failed for lack of threescore required "yes" votes.[78]

The Lincoln County Republican Political party in Nebraska censured Sasse for his comments about Trump'due south impeachment. The county chair lamented that state constabulary does non allow Sasse to exist recalled. "President Trump was 'impeached' in the House with no investigation, evidence or due process", Scotts Bluff County GOP Chair Kolene Woodward wrote in an open letter to Sasse about the decision to censure. "Your back up for such a mock judicial proceeding reminiscent of Joseph Stalin is reprehensible." Woodward added, "You were elected to correspond the people of Nebraska who overwhelmingly voted for President Trump. Your deportment are a selfish, political ploy." Woodward also expressed frustration that there was no way to recall Sasse from the Senate. "Unfortunately, in Nebraska we practise not have recall", she said. "Nosotros don't accept any way of recalling someone who goes to D.C. and does whatever they want, so we are also looking at [whether we can] add together that in the future."[79]

Environs [edit]

Sasse has criticized what he calls "alarmism" over climate change and has said, "you don't hear a lot of people who put climate as a No. 1 issue... offering constructive, innovative solutions for the future."[80] He has said that "innovation" is the solution to climate change.[81] [82]

In 2017, with Republicans unable to develop a repeal-and-replace plan that could secure a majority in the Senate, Sasse proposed an immediate repeal with a one-yr filibuster in implementation, and called on the Senate to give up its August recess to let information technology to work on a replacement measure.[86]

LGBT+ rights [edit]

Sasse does not back up same-sex activity marriage. After the United states Supreme Court ruled that it was unconstitutional for a state to ban aforementioned-sex spousal relationship in Obergefell 5. Hodges, Sasse said, "Today's ruling is a disappointment to Nebraskans who sympathise that marriage brings a wife and married man together and then their children can have a mom and dad. The Supreme Courtroom one time again overstepped its Ramble role past acting as a super-legislature and imposing its ain definition of marriage on the American people rather than assuasive voters to decide in u.s.."[88]

Congressional term limits [edit]

Sasse pledged to support a constitutional subpoena setting fourth dimension limits on the terms in office for U.Due south. senators and representatives.[89] In the 117th Congress he cosponsored a bill for a constitutional subpoena that would limit senators to two terms and representatives to three.[90]
