If I had my choice, I wish this country, America, were running great. I wish I could stand up and say, "Wow, this place is really running fantastically."

You watch these phony networks, and dishonest networks, who are 100 percent about Hillary Clinton. She's got nothing going. The only thing she's got going is the media.

I don't want to impede free press, by the way. The last thing I would want to do is that.

When I ran, people know I have a very big business. So I mean they elected me I guess partially for that reason.

I have a message for all of you. The crime and violence that today afflicts America will soon - and I mean very soon - come to an end.

I'm sick and tired of this stuff. I'm sick of them doing it. I'm sick and tired of it working. I'm sick and tired of the media carrying the ball and running with it. I'm sick and tired of the assumption. We've gotten to the point where [Donald] Trump was actually talking about a serious problem that not everybody faces. The idea that some people don't face this, he is being accused of being insensitive and he's actually talking about how the VA has let those people down and we need to have a program of improvement where we deal with this a little bit better than we have been.

I think, for me, nuclear is just the power, the devastation is very important to me.
