I just think we all distrust people and institutions much more than we once did. And we tend to think elites run everything and are looking out for themselves at our expense. Add it up and you get LOTS more conspiracy theorists.

The editorial board, who endorses candidates, is totally separate from the news side of the business. We don't consult one another. They have one job to do, we have a totally different one to do. So whether the Washington Post editorial board endorses Donald Trump or Hillary Clinton is meaningless to me.

Anything is possible with Trump.

As for whether what happened in Britain improves[Donald] Trump's chances of winning, I don't think so. He has the same chances; we may just be more aware of what they are now.

No one who has followed politics for the last decade thinking about August like quiet month for politics. There are no more quiet times or slow periods. None. Which, frankly, makes it a very good time to be a political writer.

Being freaked out doesn't mean you can fix what you perceive to be the problem.

Donald Trump has been rewriting the rules since he got into politics.
