I think Donald Trump is obviously the more colorful, the more flamboyant, the more dominant personality.

The problem with smear campaigns is that too often they work.

I think Hillary Clinton - first of all, it's a great victory, acknowledge it. She has made history.

President [John F.] Kennedy, after the Bay of Pigs, said to Turner Catledge of The New York Times: I wish you had written more, I wish you had investigated more, because it might have saved the country of the cataclysm of the Bay of Pigs.

When the party holds the White House, all the political decisions are made in the White House. And being a party chair, you're just an artifact.

There's never been a sense of public service about Donald Trump.

The Democrats have to do what he did when [Rahm Emanuel] was chairman of the Democratic House Campaign Committee, recruit veterans, recruit football players, recruit business people. And I think that's what the job of the new party chair has to be.
