George Washington was the president who could never tell a lie, and Richard Nixon was the president who could never tell the truth. Donald Trump is truly the president who can't tell the difference.

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

Mitt Romney looks like a president. I mean, he really does.

We have weakened the parties and strengthened all the special interests.

[The Republicans] looked at basically the failed wars and they said, oh, this, us being the policeman of the world, that is not working.

There is no question that, in 1980, Ronald Reagan had been portrayed as a war-monger, somebody who couldn't do anything off a script. And the one debate with President Jimmy Carter, he stood toe-to-toe and reassured people that he wasn't bound and determined to start World War III on the spot and could make a coherent statement.

I don't hear any clear, coherent message [from Democrats]. I mean, when you're a party out of power, it's the time to be a national party chair.
