Our country is being run by incompetent people.

I think we need somebody absolutely that we can trust, who is totally responsible; who really knows what he or she is doing. That is so powerful and so important. And one of the things that I'm frankly most proud of is that in 2003, 2004, I was totally against going into Iraq because you're going to destabilize the Middle East.

I promise you, I will never enter a bicycle race.

I built a phenomenal company; if we could run America the way I ran my company, we'd be proud of it.

I've been challenged by so many people, and I don't frankly have time for total political correctness. And to be honest with you, this country doesn't have time either. This country is in big trouble. We don't win anymore.

Our military has been so badly depleted. Who would think the United States is raiding plane graveyards to pick up parts and equipment? That means they're being held together by a shoestring. Other countries have brand-new stuff they have bought from us. It's insane.

Sure, I'd like to see Apples built in the United States, not built in China. I'd like to see them have factories in the United States. At least, partially.
