<p>Sen. John Curtis (R-UT) defended President Donald Trump during an interview over the weekend for this recent decision to fire several senior military officers, saying that his election victory was a real “stop the car” moment in politics.</p>
<p>Curtis made the remarks during a Sunday CBS News interview on “Face The Nation” with host Margaret Brennan when asked about the firings, which included the chair of the Joint Chiefs.</p>
<p>“Are you concerned that’s what’s happening here?” she asked.</p>
<p>“I think we have to stop and look what happened really last November,” Curtis responded. “And one of my colleagues describe it this way, it was a stop the car moment. Those of us who have had young kids and been on family vacations know what a stop the car moment is. It’s, kids, you’re so disruptive, we’re stopping the car.”</p>
<p>“And I think in many ways the American people said, stop the car,” he said. “We want dramatic change. We’re unhappy with what’s happening at the border, we’re unhappy with the economy, we’re unhappy with so many things.”</p>
<p>“You keep promising that you’re going to cut spending, and you don’t. Stop the car,” he continued. “And so people really shouldn’t be surprised that this is a stop the car moment. We don’t get to go to Disneyland until we figure this out. And I think that’s what people are seeing right now in Washington.”</p>
<p>He said that Trump’s victory was a clear sign that people wanted change and that people should not be surprised to see him following through on what he said he would do.</p>
