The people that make this country work, the people who pay on their mortgages, the people getting up and going to work, striving in this recession to not participate in it, they're not the enemy. They're the people that hire you. They're the people that are going to give you a job.

The government's the one thing that's not supposed to grow. The U.S. economy is supposed to grow. The two things can't really happen together.

It's almost an addiction that some people have to what I call the perfection that Hollywood presents of successful, beautiful, fun-loving people.

It isn't personal per se to document what the Republican Party leadership is doing and how they're abrogating actual leadership.

Jennifer Palmieri and Joel Benenson and all these people on Hillary's [Clinton] side just can't come to grips with the fact that they lost.

I reject most conventional wisdom.

The Republicans know very well how to lose, and they know how to be very civil in defeat.
