Donald Trump is a racist. Donald Trump in fact is making fascist appeals. That's why many self-respecting Republicans are not supporting Donald Trump for president.
If there are threats to the United States, then I would of course go back to the president and make a recommendation that may include the use of U.S. military ground force.
I have my disagreements with President Obama, but President Obama has run an amazingly scandal-free administration, not only he himself, but the people around him. He's chosen people who have been pretty scandal-free.
One of the first things I did was interview the President of the United States. Some people work their whole lives and can't interview someone of that stature.
Under this president, we have a government that has grown too big, too costly and now even more overbearing by forcing religious entities to abandon their beliefs.
A president cannot make decision on what someone might know in the future.
Here is the thing people do not understand. And I have said this repeatedly. I am not against changes in U.S. policy towards Cuba. I just want to make sure that those changes are reciprocal, that they're reciprocated by the Cuban government. That was not part of what President Obama did.
A good president does with executive power what Pablo Picasso did with paint. He takes bills into new and slightly discomfiting territory. He puts extra eyes on policies. He moves the mouth of the Supreme Court from where it should be to where it must be.
If I had been president, I would have come out and declared: "Nothing there, ever! This place stays as it is. We make a big place there where people can pray about the errors we have made that those two towers had to fall."
In addition, for almost a year now I have been urging the President, the Department of Justice, and the Federal Trade Commission to investigate suspicious gas price spikes.
Being a press secretary is like learning to type: You're hunting and pecking for a while and then you find yourself doing the touch system and don't realize it. You're speaking for the president without ever having to go to him.
No doubt it was better to have become president than not.
Better to be ordinary people in a superior country than to be a president in a disreputable country.
I'm deciding where I am best for this president-elect [Donald Trump] and this vice president-elect [Mike Pence] in due course. But there are many qualified men and women who can serve him at the highest levels.
I can't imagine anybody disagrees with President Trump when he says, if we don't take care of our veterans, who are we really as a nation?
Washington has never seen anything like President Donald Trump.
Just had lunch with the president who seems pensive, slightly deflated, realistic, aggravated and resolute. Didn't eat his pie.
Certainly I had my preference, and I very much hoped that George W. Bush would be our next president.
Once he became president, George [H.] Bush revealed a vein of Styrofoam and no matter how deep he tried to go, he always ended up bobbing on the surface. His inaugural speech was like being present at the death of language.
This president [Barack Obama] is someone who has done more to protect and keep together families with DACA and then with DAPA.
If the President asked you to help, I don't think anybody could refuse, unless one felt that one couldn't be effective.
You can track elections by who was playing that president on 'SNL' at that time. There's the theory that the more likable or charismatic impression would help get the president elected.
The election moment is merely the American public saying, "We'd rather you be President than that guy." That's it.
Presentationally, Bill Clinton is a US President to die for. The truth is, far too many have.
I think Ronald Reagan was the best President of my lifetime.
