And Donald Trump is not going to give in to the special interests in this country, like the teachers' union, who say that substandard education in our urban areas can only be fixed by giving it more money and that that's all they're going to do about it and not change the underlying problems that we have on violence.

I think he [Donald Trump] is generally a good person, but you know what? He had no business being president of the United States. If I thought he did, I wouldn`t be running. I`d be helping him.

I know the human spirit. I haven't found a wall that can be built that a determined human being can't get over, under or around.

When the president of the United States says he's going to do something, he needs to do it. That makes not only our adversaries more emboldened. It makes our allies more nervous.

We didn't disqualify Hillary Clinton to be President of the United States the facts of her life and career disqualify her.

The bottom line is that I have a job to do to help get the new administration ready. If there's some role for me that I want to do and the president-elect wants me to do - we've known each other 14 years. We'll talk about it.

You see, Mr. President - real leaders don't follow polls. Real leaders change polls.
