Barack ObamaI'm not comparing myself with Donald Trump or anybody else - but the people are fed up with the politicians ignoring the problem. The people are fed up by if they say something about the influx of the mass immigration from mostly Islamic countries, what they really feel is the threat for the safety of their daughters who go to school or their parents who walk in the park or themselves going shopping on a Thursday evening in Holland - they are being called racist if they make a remark about, 'hey this is not our country anymore.'

Demetri MartinI never really looked at it like that, but it's true. It's weird that it's been half my life. Because I lead these two separate lives.

I didn't like to do that. I wanted to protect my reputation.
