I have many, many, many friends who are members of the GOP. They don`t act in that way at all. They are horrified at what`s happening in their party. I`m one of those people even though I`m 'disgraced.' And so when we generalize that it`s the party as if it was all the party I would say no, it`s not.

You`re nothing we`ll get rid of you. To me, that reminds me of Mussolini.
