I certainly think the free-market has failed.

Every day, no matter what is happening around me, I consciously try to discipline my own feelings and my mind about what I have to be grateful for, because by any stretch of the imagination - even during the worst times when people are accusing me of things and doing all that they do - I'm a very lucky person.

I've said that we're going to produce real results for the American people because so many Americans feel left out and left behind, they think the economy has failed them, they think our government has failed, they can't stand the gridlock and dysfunction in our politics, and I'm determined to produce more good jobs with rising incomes, and deal with all of the concerns that families have about education, college affordability, student debt.

We've got to get back to rebuilding the middle class, the families of America. That's where growth will come from.

I had grown men cry. I mean, literally.

I can`t think of an election that is more important, certainly in my lifetime.

The central question in this election [2016] is really what kind of country we want to be and what kind of future we'll build together.
