Donald Trump actually said...

"Gavin Newsom, he's a terrible governor."

"I solved that problem and I got along with him. He's not a religious zealot. He happens to be a smart guy. Kim Jong Un is a smart guy."

"In last Monday's inaugural address, President Donald Trump vowed to encourage a 'merit-based' society."

"Why? Do you want to have a large detail of people guarding people for the rest of their lives? I mean, there's risks to everything."
