In pre-Trump Washington where the old rules applied, Rudy Giuliani could never survive the Senate confirmation process.

The question was, have you heard from anyone on the [Donald] Trump transition team? We have not been contacted.

Rudolph Giuliani will be the first Secretary of State whose last public office was mayor, the most thoroughly domestic public office that we have.

Why in general, when you`re putting together a White House staff and putting together a good one, you`re looking for someone there who is not someone who`s going to be heavy-handed.

I`m just learning that according to a source familiar with the transition process, President-elect Donald Trump intends to select Lieutenant General Michael Flynn as his national security adviser.

I think the fact of the matter is this is a tough moment for democrats. But it`s also exciting to see so many people out there mobilized.

That`s why somebody like a Tim Ryan can go to a bar in Youngstown just as well as in Congress and talk to working people. Democrats know how to carry the message. We just have to take some telephone new voices and bring them forward.
