I believe in a free and open press; people have to cover the presidency, respect the office and its current occupant. And we need it to be a two-way street.

I don't think CNN is 'fake news.' I think there are some reports everywhere, in print, on TV, on radio, in conversation, that are not well-researched and are sometimes based on falsehoods.

I think that Donald Trump has faced an unprecedented avalanche of critical coverage when he was running and frankly, I think, it in part he owes his victory to that.

I was - in this magazine, it referred to me as "political parrot." And I thought, "That's the best you can come up with, really?" Okay, and I think it made fun of something I was wearing. But that does happen, and it happens a lot with female journalists, folks.

As someone who was like a chief spokeswoman for [Donald Trump] and his campaign manager, it wasn't always relevant to what Americans out there were telling us at rallies or telling pollsters behind the scenes concerning them.

People want the government to go back to the people.

It was [Donald trump] had seen me on the job there, doing other things, and he asked me if I could run the place, and so we had that conversation. But I appreciate that, too.
