It's gratifying to work for somebody who doesn't measure accomplishment by the temporary state of public-opinion polls.
I profoundly believe that the Democratic Party is the only vehicle we have to put a check on Donald Trump.
As a conservative myself that, you know, generally I would have a point of view that less regulation is better than more regulation, but less regulation shouldn't supersede a tax on the fundamentally important institutions that sustain a democratic republic.
When Trump was elected, there were three parties in Washington: the Trump party, the Democratic Party and the Republican Party.
I've been involved in a lot of victories and I've been involved in defeats.
To see the Republican Party break up the way it has to lose its moral compass it is tragic, it's tragic for me personally, but I won't be part of it. I won't share a party label with people who think it's all right to put babies in internment camps.
I love little kids, I hate little kids being used by cynical politicians, though.
I've spent my life in the Republican party, it gives me no pleasure to say this. This party has demonstrated a complete incapacity to govern. Period.
