I'm so sick and tired of sitting here and people like to say what has Barack Obama done for the African-American community? Tons.
I think that Hillary Clinton wants to have a policy debate with Donald Trump. I think that most people want to have a policy debate with Donald Trump because one thing that we've learned, and I said it before is, Donald Trump on foreign…
You cannot let Donald Trump have a moment. You cannot let Donald Trump have a day.
This letter wasn't as much about foreign policy as it was about temperament, and character and the ability to be commander in chief.
Someone who actually encourages our armed forces to go out and waterboard, to go out and kill innocent families, I mean, that is unconstitutional on its face.
I think only one candidate is an existential threat to the United States of America, and that's Donald Trump.
I think Thomas Perez is a great individual, would be an asset on the ticket.
I think there are some operational deficiencies in the Democratic Party.

I believe the Republican Party for all intents and purposes is giving up on winning the White House in 2016.
A lot of my friends -- I am not relishing. I'm not like ecstatic or taking Trump lightly by any stretch, in fact it's more pride in being able to beat back on that George Wallace-esque xenophobia in November that I'm excited about doing.
But there's also nobody to bring the Republican Party together. It's sure not Mitt Romney.
Marco Rubio who is a complete superstar winning democrat will tell you they really don't want to run against in November if they're being honest with themselves.
I mean, that is the level of political discourse that we're having in this country on the republican side.
I want a plan to help limit mass incarceration. I want somebody like Hillary Clinton who is actually talking about adopting President Obama's Ferguson Commission standards.
Hillary Clinton actually apologized for actually being a part of that.
