People aren't stupid. I mean, people remember in 1990, the unemployment rate was 10 percent. Now it's 4 _ percent. We've got 1/4 million jobs that we've created.

One of the functions of government is to act as a safeguard not just of property but of our liberties.

We're getting to the point where we're impinging on democratic institutions in this country and I think, you know, it takes a certain - not a suspension of disbelief - but willingness to go along with other people to get the ship of state going forward. I'm not sure that happens in a [Donald] Trump presidency, frankly.

Before my tenure, people didn't seem to think that citizens had a right to limit the size of their government.

Managing people's sex lives is something that I don't think is a good role for government.

Government has a role as well in what is referred to as redistributive justice.

[Donald Trump] doesn't deal well with criticism and blame and I don't think he could competently manage the office of the presidency given the criticism and challenge that you face every single day as the President of the United States.
