There's a void of leadership in a lot of Washington. I think one of the reasons why there's so much angst across the country.

To me there's nothing to get excited about with Hillary Clinton. I mean, maybe there's things to get excited about in terms of, scared of, opposition. But I don't think Hillary has this large army of devoted fans willing to go through fire for her.

It is preposterous to believe that the Russians had any effect on the outcome of voting in America. It's absurd. There is no evidence.

[NFL fans] wish they'd shut up and play football, and I think the vast majority of people, "Shut up and act! Shut up and sing! Shut up and star in your TV show! Just shut up and do what you do, but shut up!" I think they're wearing out their welcome.

I had dinner in Washington way, way back. This goes back to the nineties. It was the Jockey Club which was the restaurant at the Ritz-Carlton in Washington, and I can't mention the names, but boy, would I love to. I mean, you know these people. They're Democrats, Democrat campaign chairman, and they're talking about [Jordan] Vernon. They're openly admitting it.

Everybody wants to matter. And that's the sales pitch. So all you have to do is go out and, you know, buy some new kind of newfangled hybrid car or agree to raise taxes or, if you go to the store, buy everything and anything with a green label on it and you are saving the planet.

I cringe every time I see no evidence of push-back by the Republican Party on Obama policies.
