72
I must admit I found it astonishing to watch the candidates below Donald Trump beat up each other and never lay a glove on the front-runner. I mean, when I was running, everybody went after the front-runner and pointed out my weaknesses and foibles, and that’s part of the normal primary process.

157

189
I was on the campaign trail, covering Donald Trump for two years – and it’s really hard to do anything for yourself with a schedule like that. I didn’t have time to answer text messages from my friends or go to the gym, let alone get my nails done.
190
Donald Trump did exactly what he said he’d do on the campaign trail and frankly what we should have more of, which is luring companies to stay here by easing regulations, by lowering the tax burden so that more Americans can have U.S. jobs.
191
I told Donald Trump, ‘This isn’t a campaign, this is a movement.’ Look at what’s happening. The American people are not happy with their government.
192
I am far from the first to conclude that Donald Trump lacks the temperament to be president.
193
On style points alone, Donald Trump makes GWB look magnificently presidential.
194
What I find shocking is that there’s this thought process that Hillary Clinton is going to be president of the United States, and to even think of Donald Trump is a joke.
195
Omarosa is a distraction. She’s always been a distraction. She’s never been a positive influence on anything to do with Donald Trump.
196
Donald Trump has his Twitter account, but so do I, and so do millions and millions of Americans. So the way that we can organize around that is different than what we had in the past, and we can use that tool for good, not just for evil.
197
I kind of think that if you show conspiracy theorists a photo of the dead Bin Laden they will come up with an explanation for why it’s really a Photoshopped picture of Bin Laden asleep. Or his dead cousin Fred. Donald Trump apparently believes that Bin Laden is dead, so that ought to be enough for the Middle East.
198
Donald Trump has tapped into a deep vein of racism, nativism, and misogyny.
199
Despite the intelligence community‘s assessment that Russia interfered in our presidential election, President Donald Trump and Republican leadership seem wholly uninterested in examining how and why Russia targeted us – and what we must do to prevent it from happening again.
200
When people voted for Donald Trump, they knew he wasn’t an angel.
201
I think that people have realized it’s very unwise to bet against Donald Trump.
202
Donald Trump is a friend.
203
Donald Trump embraces his wealth. Hillary Clinton wants us to forget that she made $21.5 million on 92 speeches.
204
Donald Trump doesn’t speak like a politician, and that’s made some people uncomfortable. In a world of political correctness run amok, his straight talk has been a breath of fresh air.
205
I profoundly believe that the Democratic Party is the only vehicle we have to put a check on Donald Trump.
206
The survivors of Hurricane Harvey do not need empty tweets and platitudes from people like Donald Trump and Joel Osteen. They have shown beyond a shadow of a doubt that, as we say in Texas, they are all hat and no cattle.
207
I think Donald Trump is a very unique candidate.
208
Let’s be clear: Donald Trump is a lewd, lecherous lowlife.
209
I mean, Donald Trump has been able, because of Mitch McConnell, to seat more circuit court judges almost than Barack Obama did in eight years.
210
Donald Trump has been both a peculiar and characteristic American figure for more than three decades. Inheriting a small New York real-estate development company from his father, he parlayed it not so much into a big real-estate company, but himself into a fantasy of a big real-estate developer.
211
Without any doubt, I’m convinced that Hillary Clinton represents less individuality, flexibility for the states, a weaker national defense. And you know, for all those reasons, we ought to get behind Donald Trump.
212
Our country deserves a party that isn’t afraid to say immigration is a good thing, or to say that Donald Trump is racist, or to admit that we have an economic system that is fundamentally broken for too many people and is breaking our planet too.
213
I am everything Donald Trump is against.
214
The effect of Bill Clinton’s NAFTA and Hillary Clinton’s Colombian Free Trade Agreement has been devastating to Michigan and most of the rest of the country, and accounts for the appeal of Donald Trump.
215
Donald Trump himself has financial ties to oligarchs in Russia who are close to Putin.
216
I do not believe the United States and the Americans are going to let Donald Trump become president… I think the challenge is Donald Trump, with his anti-China rhetoric and with his anti-trade rhetoric, is going to make the job for all of us more difficult going forward.
217
You don’t have to worry about Donald Trump stabbing you in the back; he’ll stab you right in the heart, but he says what he says, and he stands by it.
218
In 2014, with the help of Donald Trump, my friend Chuck Sonntag and I got a group of Big Tree Boys together to organize fans to help keep the Bills in Buffalo. We started Bills Fan Thunder, and we played a small public role in saving our team.
219
I mean, what was really interesting is that, you know, Ted Cruz put out this ad with little kids saying that Donald Trump essentially is pretending to be a Republican, which is a little bit odd because Ted Cruz is not been the biggest Republican Party booster, right.
220
Donald Trump is a fraud. Listening to him talk about how he’s going to put American first again, he’s spent his entire career putting his own profits first.
221
My partner Donald Trump says that married couples should always have a prenuptial agreement. True, a prenuptial is important if one partner is much richer than the other before marriage, but Kim and I don’t have one.
222
I don’t think men like losing their hair, I don’t think that’s a newsflash. When you see people, start from Donald Trump and go down, you realize people will do anything to have some coverage up there.
223
Always taken Donald Trump seriously. I think people have underestimated him.
224
Every voice on the Left bleated about how they feared protests and riots by angry Donald Trump supporters if and when he lost the election, yet it is the Leftists themselves destroying property and blocking roads. Everyone can see where the hate is coming from. Everyone.
225
NBC has created a monster and it is called Donald Trump.
226
I don’t think, Donald Trump doesn’t think, no one thinks that a foreign entity should be interfering with a foreign election.
227
Donald Trump is talking about the failed leadership of the Obama Administration.
228
It’s very clear that Mr. DeSantis is taking a page directly from the campaign manual of Donald Trump.
229
I pray all Americans who have seen and felt the meltdown of America with the Obama years, to please fight for Donald Trump. He will not let us down.
230
What is obvious is that Donald Trump is comfortable with an approach to running his presidency based on what worked for him in the private sector.
231
When I think about moguls, I think like Donald Trump who… owns NYC practically. That’s a mogul. I feel like I’m on my way to a lot more, but mogul is a really serious thing. I think it’s a word that gets thrown around easily.
232
Always remember: You have to identify the disease before you can begin work on a cure. In the case of support for Donald Trump, the results are in: It isn’t the economy. It’s the racism, stupid.
233
We get so many requests like, ‘We want behind-the-scenes access,’ or ‘We’re going to show people what it’s really like to be on the campaign with Donald Trump.’ But there is just no way that a camera or an episode or a documentary could capture what has gone on.
Hope Hicks
234
Most Americans know we are in a mess, and as they look at Donald Trump, they believe he is the one leader who can reverse the downward death spiral of this nation we love so dearly.
235
Me and Drake gonna be neighbors if Donald Trump becomes president.
236
I’ve always felt that Donald Trump was a Dickensian character because he is so ridiculous. With his hair and his arrogance, he is certainly Dickensian in his absurdity.
237
Listen, the guy was not created by coverage from MSNBC and CNN. If you want to blame us for making Donald Trump president because you’re unhappy about it, I think you are deluding yourself. Donald Trump hit a nerve.
238
Donald Trump is a guy who has called for privatization of the V.A. That is something that is overwhelmingly rejected by America’s veterans. They do not want to go down that path. Do they want improvement? Sure they do. But they don’t want risky or radical.
239
Donald Trump begins his political career in birtherism. That idea is connected to a very, very old notion that African-Americans are not citizens.
240
Donald Trump has got unlimited number of insecurities. But the No. 1 one thing, I would say, is his insecurity with his intellect. There’s a reason why he always refers to where he went to college and, you know, that, ‘I’m a smart person.’ You know, it may be narcissism. But I think it really reflects an insecurity.
241
Donald Trump can take his message directly to the people via rallies and addresses carried over social media. I’d call them updated versions of Roosevelt‘s fireside chats, but a portion of my younger readership doesn’t even know what a radio is thanks to a Democrat-run education system.
242
I’m interested in all things that Donald Trump does. I’ve known him since 1980. He’s a good man.
Gary Busey
243
When I hear Donald Trump say the American military is a disaster, I want to go through the screen and shake the guy. We ought to have a commander in chief who talks about our troops with respect and gratitude.
244
For Donald Trump, during his candidacy, he became a polarizing candidate, which included, along the way, insulting a lot of people.
245
A lot of people in the media say that Donald Trump goes golfing too much, which raises a very important question: Why do you care? Do you want to know what he’s not doing when he’s golfing? Being president. Let the man putt-putt!
246
Donald Trump has advocated violence – I saw him do it several times on the campaign trail.
247
The nominee of our party, which at this – is presumed to be Donald Trump – I think that’s the right team to support. That’s what I’ve always said I would.
248
No one can tell you the rules of ‘Celebrity Apprentice.’ No one. Donald Trump just does what he wants, which is mostly pontificating to people who are sucking up to him, while the network people try to manipulate him into making the highest-rated show they can.
249
The differences between Secretary Clinton and Donald Trump in terms of temperament, in terms of values, couldn’t be more stark.
250
My 2016 was basically spent covering Donald Trump and falling madly in love with James Fletcher.
251
Hillary Clinton is excoriating Donald Trump over Trump University? The Clinton scandal at Laureate Education, a for-profit education chain of schools and colleges operating world-wide, including the United States, is much worse.
252
The idea that Donald Trump committed an abuse of power by bringing politics into a foreign relationship is a joke. They all do it. Trump is just more open about it.
253
I think the WWE is a great place for professional athletes. Floyd Mayweather did it. Mike Tyson has done it. Even Donald Trump has appeared in the ring.
254
I can’t imagine what this place would be – I can’t imagine what the country would be – with Donald Trump as our president.
255
Donald Trump has courageously taken on the entrenched special interests who sought to suppress the working people of this country and who have sought to deny them a livable wage.
256
The American people are ready for solutions, and Donald Trump offers a chance to move in a new direction.
257
I haven’t agreed with every one of my Republican colleagues or Democratic colleagues on every issue. But I’m supporting Donald Trump because we need change in this country.
258
I believe the first reason that Donald Trump is running for president is because he truly believes that he can help turn the nation around. The second reason I believe is that this is the greatest position in the world, to be at the center of political power, of the universe.
259
I think Donald Trump believes in defeating ISIS, resolving issues in the Middle East.
260
I don’t think Donald Trump is Ronald Reagan.
261
If the Republican party becomes the party of David Duke, Donald Trump, I’m out.
262
It is an outrage that Donald Trump can swear and scream on national television and no one says boo about how he presents himself.
263
Even though Q is at the moment based on Donald Trump, it is certainly possible for a significant faction to rise up that believes he was in the deep state all along and foiled the plan.
264
Donald Trump is an innocent child of God, and the democratically chosen president-elect of the United States. We must deeply bow before the first and deeply respect the second.
265
Somebody made the statement that Donald Trump has built or owns the greatest collection of golf courses, ever, in the history of golf. And I believe that is 100 percent true.
Donald Trump
266
Members of the FBI and the Department of Justice – some of whom ended up on Bob Mueller’s team to prosecute Donald Trump – did everything they could to exonerate Hillary Clinton for her crimes and incriminate Donald Trump with a non-existent crime.
267
We speak truth to power, and we’ve never been fooled into believing Donald Trump ‘can be a good president.’
268
I don’t know why someone would be dumb enough to challenge Donald Trump.
269
Every city has a Donald Trump; ours is just the Trumpiest.
270
This country deserves a statesman who can represent the people with proper decorum, respect, and knowledge of what’s happening in the world, and I don’t believe that Donald Trump represents any of that.
271
Donald Trump has put some professional people around himself. Experienced. Successful. I know a lot of people seem to think that success and experience are reasons you shouldn’t serve in public office. But they are knowledgeable and smart, and they’ve been around the world.
272
Donald Trump is a dream for business people like me. I think Trump’s going to make pharma great again.
Martin Shkreli
273
Our message has been muddled, especially in 2016. Voters in Ohio heard from Trump, ‘I’m going to save your coal jobs.’ And while that was a lie, what it told them is, ‘I’m going to feel your pain.’ What they heard from the Democratic side was, ‘Vote for us because Donald Trump is crazy.’
274
Donald Trump has a curious understanding of what freedom of speech means.
275
President-elect Donald Trump says he’s looking for a simple plan for defeating ISIS within his first 30 days of taking office. But even as ISIS has suffered setbacks in Iraq and Syria, its violent ideology continues to spread.
276
Frankly, what we need to be looking at is whether this election was rigged by Donald Trump and his buddy Vladimir Putin.
277
In 2007, Donald Trump spent $20,000 that belonged to his charity – the Donald J. Trump Foundation – to buy a six-foot-tall portrait of himself during a fundraiser auction at his Mar-a-Lago Club in Florida.
278
You see a Donald Trump on TV, just like you’d see Joan Rivers on TV when she was living, and you see a real person. That’s the Donald Trump that I know.
279
Donald Trump, you already know. We can’t have that guy in office.
280
I have known Donald Trump for almost 30 years. And he has created and accomplished great things. But beyond that, this is a man with a big heart.
281
Reince Priebus is a strong supporter of Donald Trump and a good friend and supporter of Paul Ryan.
282
While the United States is closing doors, Canada is opening them. While U.S. President Donald Trump is slouching toward authoritarianism, Canada is safeguarding democracy.
283
In my opinion, Donald Trump lives a life of loving and helping others as Jesus taught in the great commandment. He cannot be bought; he’s not a puppet on a string like many other candidates… who have wealthy donors as their puppet masters.
284
Donald Trump and I have very different views on Iranians. I am confident that if he ever visited the country, he’d learn a lot about the people and come back to the States with a newfound appreciation for the Persians.
285
I wish I could talk like Donald Trump or Steve Wynn. Hell, I’d love it.
Kirk Kerkorian
286
Manipulating an election in a small developing country doesn’t have the same sort of ripple effect of electing Donald Trump into the White House.
287
Donald Trump, despite his campaign promises, this is not a guy who is going to be willing to send executive power that belongs to the legislative branch back to the legislative branch. I mean, Donald Trump is going to try to amass and consolidate power, given that he’s an authoritarian.
288
Donald Trump got elected because, in his twisted way, he pointed out the huge troubles in our economy and our democracy.
289
I will support the Republican nominee. I don’t think that’s going to be Donald Trump. My party has historically nominated someone who’s a mainstream conservative.
290
Donald Trump is an archetypal grifter. Using the presidency to promote your golf courses, hotels, and real estate business is grifting. So is getting people to pay a premium for buildings with your name in big, gold letters. Licensing your name is what every grifter dreams about.
291
I find it very easy and good to cooperate with President Donald Trump. Because he’s very down to earth, very concrete. He tells me what he wants; he asks me what he can get from us.
292
If Donald Trump wants to harm cities and the people who call them home, he’ll have to come through me.
293
Donald Trump is well known for liking people he thinks are tough.
294
I strongly endorse Donald Trump because we need a president that will put our veterans in front of the line rather than watch them die while in line.
295
I was on stage last night, and I gave a medical report about Donald Trump. I said he was hospitalized for an attack of modesty.
Mort Sahl
296
I am a mom from Michigan. I am an outsider. And I am going to do everything I can to make sure Donald Trump and Republicans everywhere are successful.
297
I don’t have any insight to Donald Trump that anyone else doesn’t.
298
Everything that is wrong with this country today, the people who are opposed to Donald Trump are responsible for!
299
I’ve known Hillary Clinton for a long time. She’s trustworthy. She’s ready from Day One to assume the office of presidency in the United States. She’s qualified and she’s ready as compared to, I think, Donald Trump, who has shown his recklessness, and dangerous statements that he’s made.
Ben Cardin
300
I believed that the donor class would cringe at the vast threat Donald Trump poses to the entire Republican Party, its brand, its prospects for expansion, and the nation.
301
I chose as the campaign logo a blue rose, which means ‘make possible the impossible.’ I think the British with Brexit, then the Americans with the election of Donald Trump, did that: They made possible the impossible.
302
The question of impeaching Donald Trump is about replacing the toxic partisanship of today’s Republican party with America’s traditional rule of law. It has become a constitutional imperative.
303
For years, as a seller of real estate and star of reality TV, Donald Trump made a living wooing customers and viewers. His selling skills were good enough that he even convinced voters to elect him as president in spite of his near-total lack of qualifications.
304
Donald Trump does not touch alcohol, which is really respectable. But think about that. That means every statement, every interview, every tweet – completely sober.
305
Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump have deep ties to corporate money. They both have a detailed and complexed view of how some on Wall Street manipulate the game. They know where the excesses are and who is to blame. If willing to take on their friends, they both could reform Wall Street from the inside.
306
I don’t think Donald Trump is a conservative. I think his line on China for example, that he’s going to talk tough to China. China didn’t create Social Security, Medicare. China isn’t spending a fifth of a billion dollars every hour that it doesn’t have.
Mark Steyn
307
I was a Republican before Donald Trump was a Republican. I was a Republican when Donald Trump was a Democrat. I was a Republican when Donald Trump was an independent. And I’m going to be a Republican when Donald Trump gets tired of being a Republican.
308
He is gracious with his time and has a tremendous heart. He is an incredibly loyal person and never forgets those who are loyal to him. I feel very lucky to have a man like Donald Trump as my father-in-law.
309
I am working with Donald Trump to deport dangerous illegal aliens, build the wall, and end sanctuary cities.
310
While I might not agree with everything Donald Trump says, I proudly stand with Donald Trump.
311
Donald Trump has taken a battering ram to longstanding political norms – the unwritten conventions that make governance possible. But even before he decided to run for president, those norms were under assault.
312
I met Donald Trump in 2003 on a reality show. Could you ever imagine then that we would end up in the White House together?
313
The Democratic Party has to be run by progressives… because we can’t let another monster like Donald Trump win again… even if we seem impolite in our fight back against him.
314
The challenge with Donald Trump is that he’ll deny things he said the day before or even in the same interview. And then sometimes when you try and talk about a fact that he misstated or something that he said out loud that he now disagrees with himself on, it’s very frustrating.
315
What people don’t realize about Donald Trump – and I don’t even know if Donald Trump realizes it – is that every tweet he unleashes against you… creates such a crescendo of anger.
316
Since winning the election, Donald Trump has jump-started voter suppression efforts at the federal and state levels.
317
I thought, ‘How cool would it be to paint Donald Trump in Donald Trump’s house with Donald Trump there.’
Michael Israel
318
Now that Donald Trump has won the presidency despite losing the popular vote, there’s a growing cry to rethink, or even abolish, the electoral college. This would be a mistake.
319
When 63 million people voted to elect Donald Trump as the president of the United States, it opened up the floodgates for toxic white masculinity in America.
320
We need a Donald Trump more than we’ve ever needed anybody since George Washington.
321
Donald Trump is a great friend, and he has four or five Picassos on his plane. And that’s where I would look at them.
322
There’s so much being said about Donald Trump already, all the time, and the more you joke about him, the more you risk making the same jokes other people are making about him.
323
Nobody could like Donald Trump, surely, except his mother. No one really likes The Donald. But how can you not have respect for a guy who’s been down on the floor and just keeps coming back? Nothing will keep Donald Trump down until they drive a wooden stake in his heart and a silver bullet in his brain.
324
The media here is the opposition party. They don’t understand this country. They still do not understand why Donald Trump is the president of the United States.
325
I’ve always competed in those shows. Like, I won ‘Fear Factor’, I did ‘I’m a Celebrity Get Me Out of Here’, I did ‘The Mole‘, ‘Celebrity Apprentice’ with Donald Trump. I’ve done a lot of those shows, all in the hope of being a blessing to my mom’s organization.
326
No one ever complained about Facebook for a single day until Donald Trump was president.
327
As a candidate, Donald Trump said he would punish women for accessing abortion, and as president, he’s made good on that promise by stacking the Supreme Court with anti-choice extremists Brett Kavanaugh and Neil Gorsuch.
328
I’d much rather face the voters defending what’s right and true than to have to explain selling my country and my soul to Donald Trump.
329
I look forward to continuing to hear what Donald Trump has to say about his vision for this country.
330
Donald Trump has been president for nearly three years. He’s been on Twitter for more than 10. Yet the only thing more surprising than Trump’s increasingly awful, hideously unpresidential, deeply divisive tweets is that we still manage to be surprised by them.
331
Because Bernie is going to bring in progressives and not lobbyists and people who are pro-corporate… for the establishment of the Democratic party, Bernie Sanders was more dangerous than Donald Trump.
332
The conservative media ecosystem – like the rest of us – has to recognize how critical, but also how fragile, credibility is in the Orwellian age of Donald Trump.
333
We don’t have to settle for disgraceful politics. We don’t have to settle for being as terrible as Donald Trump.
334
I think that if the Democratic Party focuses on nominating who will make the best president, that’s going to be a critical mistake. There’s only one question at the end of the day, and that question is, Can the potential nominee beat Donald Trump?
335
We look at individuals who would vote for Donald Trump as if… we kind of undervalue them. And we underestimated them.
336
If voters think Donald Trump is rough around the edges, wait until they really start hearing from Chris Christie.
337
There’s very widespread grassroots support for Donald Trump, one that Republicans have not seen before.
338
The fact of the matter, it’s that Trump is getting money from blue-collar workers who send him checks for $250. Why? Who is Donald Trump? It’s not who he is, it’s who he isn’t. Not what he is for, what he is against – that is, everything Washington is doing.
339
If Donald Trump has proved anything, it is that there is nothing more powerful than a candidate’s voice.
340
Donald Trump could win the presidency without a popular-vote majority only because both parties have been locked into base-turnout strategies that are partially responsible for our government’s ineffectiveness and gridlock.
341
There is no more time for us left to revive our great country. No more time to repeat our mistakes of the past. Washington needs a complete turnaround, and Donald Trump is the agent of change, and he will be the leader of the change we need.
342
The thing about Donald Trump, he is a different candidate.
343
If anyone’s going to bring about mass extinction, it’ll be Donald Trump.
344
Donald Trump is a little bit like I am. He says what needs to be said. Most of all, folks, he’s not afraid of the United States liberal media. They dislike him nearly as much as they hate me.
345
Turkey‘s regime is fast degenerating into outright dictatorship, emboldened by the imminent ascent of Donald Trump to the most powerful position on Earth.
346
Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump and House Speaker Paul Ryan harbor incredible promise for America once they forge an effective partnership.
347
Donald Trump performs consistently better in online polling, where a human being is not talking to another human being about what he or she may do in the election.
348
I believe Donald Trump is a good man. He did everything wrong as a candidate, and he won, and I don’t understand it. Other than I think God put him there.
349
Seeing Donald Trump run for and then win the presidency only enhanced my commitment to helping people free themselves from ridiculous body standards and disordered eating so they can use their gifts for more fulfilling things, like being of service and enjoying this beautiful world.
350
I think what Donald Trump needs to do is quit. I think he needs to stop being the Republican nominee.
351
So I think that having Donald Trump as president of our country, and also his impact around the world, would have left my father in dismay.
352
I believe that the role of president of the United States is vastly different from the role of candidate and that the Donald Trump of the campaign will not succeed as president.
353
Donald Trump represents a threat both to the party and to the country. I believe he makes the world far more dangerous, I believe he puts America’s economy in jeopardy. And his temperament is totally unsuited for the presidency.
354
Of course China, of course Mexico do not want Donald Trump. They know if he gets in and becomes President of the United States, the days of taking advantage of the United States are over.
355
As a Donald Trump supporter, the battle to elevate the will of the people above that of the establishment is one with which I empathize.
356
President Donald Trump and Attorney General Jeff Sessions want to change the false Black Lives Matter narrative, but it doesn’t look like they will have many allies among liberal mayors and their police commanders.
357
The thing I have in common with Donald Trump is, about a dozen years ago, we got a ‘Man of the Year’ award in New York City, the Hotel Plaza, from the USO.
358
Donald Trump is right – we must secure the border and end sanctuary cities.
359
Our job is to do two things – to defeat Donald Trump and to elect Hillary Clinton. It is easy to boo, but it is harder to look your kids in the face if we are living under a Trump presidency.
360
If you want a president who will upend the status quo in Washington, D.C., and appoint justices of the Supreme Court who will uphold the Constitution, we have but one choice, and that man is ready. This team is ready. Our party is ready and when we elect Donald Trump, the 45th president.
361
I understand why people could look at things that Donald Trump says and be deeply offended by them and feel that he is not looking out for their best interests.
362
I think we all agree that the comments Donald Trump made in relation to Muslims were divisive, unhelpful and wrong.
363
I don’t want to be like Donald Trump or anything like it… I’m different than some people.
364
I’m fighting Donald Trump every day.
365
There’s no question, I think, as more and more people get to know Rex Tillerson, they’re going to be really proud of the choice that Donald Trump made as our next secretary of state.
366
I voted against Donald Trump for every American who looks and sounds like me. Because we love this country. We are proud of this country. We stand as equals in the United States of America.
367
Donald Trump, who surely has lots of high-stakes issues on which to focus, is consumed with the appearance of women.
368
If Donald Trump wants to raise the minimum wage to $15, yes, I will work with Donald Trump.
369
Among the reasons Donald Trump is president is that he read the nation and the world better than his rivals.
370
We see – every week or two, we see another story of a small business that went out of business because Donald Trump.
371
The immigration policies that Donald Trump and the Republicans are pushing are downright hateful and must be stopped.
372
I hope we build a son who’s strong enough to stand up for other people. And if Donald Trump is out there teaching folks how to build walls, we’re hoping to instil in our son the ability to know how to take them down.
373
I happen to know personally that Donald Trump does not have a problem with gay people.
374
Occasionally, Donald Trump says something that is politically incorrect but which also happens to be true.
375
My least favorite joke right now is Donald Trump.
376
Congressman Heck says Donald Trump is the candidate he trusts on national security and changing our economy. Well, I don’t know about you, but I don’t want Donald Trump anywhere near our nuclear launch codes.
377
I see particular commonalities in the rise of Donald Trump and Bernie Sanders.
378
I guess I’ve maintained my hair. I’m like a Donald Trump. I have a good, solid head of hair, and that’s been my trademark all these years.
379
They set a low bar for Donald Trump, and he banged his head on it.
380
Donald Trump outsources his ties to China. He outsourced his furniture to Turkey. I know a company in Ohio that could make that furniture in Archibald, Ohio.
381
Brexit happened. Donald Trump is president. If Ann Widdecombe won CBB Year of the Woman, it would be the third sign of the Apocalypse.
382
I chose to personally support Donald Trump for president early on and referred to him as America’s blue-collar billionaire at the Republican National Convention because of his love for ordinary Americans and his kindness, generosity, and bold leadership qualities.
383
Do you know how many people watch Fox News in this country? There’s a lot of people who watch that and there’s a lot of people who voted for Donald Trump that feel that represents their view and they’re happy that’s represented in news somewhere even if it’s in the opinion section.
384
For people who never tire of telling the world what a moral high ground they’ve taken in opposing Donald Trump, they sure don’t seem to mind offering up a bellyful of gloats and taunts.
385
Donald Trump did not appear by magic.
386
When blue-eyed Donald Trump married hazel-eyed Ivana Zelnickova, he probably figured his broad-shouldered DNA would dominate her girly alleles. But genetics played a cruel trick on Trump: Of the couple’s three children, only the youngest, Eric, wound up with his father’s fishy blue eyes.
387
Women face a very, very difficult time when they run for higher elected office, unfortunately, especially against a guy like Donald Trump.
388
Donald Trump may be unusually flamboyant, but his views are all too representative of the party that is about to nominate him for president.
389
Donald Trump, an oft-bankrupt make-believe mogul clown with a television show where he pretends to fire America’s saddest former celebrities, is one of the Republican Party’s most prominent national figures because he is on TV and people have heard of him.
390
I don’t work for Donald Trump. I work with him. I work for the people who sent me up here. He ran on repealing and replacing Obamacare. Those people that put him and me in office expect us to repeal and replace Obamacare.
391
From the moment Donald Trump was inaugurated, Washington Democrats have been myopically focused on politically targeting his administration and impeaching him.
392
What I’m saying is, ‘Look, life is a long thing, and I don’t need enemies. I need friends just like Donald Trump.’
393
Even though I don’t agree with Donald Trump on everything, and I think there may be certain things or statements of his that I may disagree with, he is a better candidate by far than Hillary Clinton.
394
I think Donald Trump is a racist.
395
All eyes turned to the United States after countries around the world banned the Boeing 737 Max 8 and 9 following the deadly plane crash in Ethiopia. But President Donald Trump didn’t follow suit at first, even as the pressure built.
396
Donald Trump was straight up. I mean, he told me what he thought of me, and that’s cool. I might not like it, but at least he did it to my face. That’s what Montanans like. They like people to be square with them.
397
Donald Trump called for the closing of borders to Muslims; John McCain said, in response to the President’s address on the San Bernardino shooting, that ‘this is the war of our time.’ As that shooting shows, we react to terrorism with far more intensity than we do to an ordinary crime.
398
I have had a unique relationship with Donald Trump. I’m also the one who put him and ‘The Apprentice’ on the air at NBC. I’ve known who he is and what he is for a long time.
399
Obviously everybody can’t go to the convention, but if you’re staying away from the convention because you disagree with a style or some substance of Donald Trump, that’s a mistake because we’ve got our country at stake.
400
It’s time to make America safe again. It’s time to make America one again. I know it can be done because I did it by changing New York City from ‘the crime capital of America’ to – according to the FBI – the safest large city in America. What I did for New York City, Donald Trump will do for America.
401
If we all work together, then we can save the American Dream from the nightmare that is Donald Trump.
402
If there’s anyone who’s against Wall Street, it’s Donald Trump, not Hillary Clinton, who basically lives off of the funding from Wall Street.
403
Let’s bring in Donald Trump. He wants to lower taxes across the board for individuals and large and small businesses, significantly reduce burdensome regulations, and unleash America’s energy resources.
404
President Donald Trump has made it very clear he wants to move Canadian jobs to the United States. There’s no reason why Justin Trudeau should be helping him.
405
Donald Trump is a symptom, not a disease. The disease is the death of real political conservatism: a cool, intelligent reluctance to believe that all change is good, a love for the established, the particular, and the well-worn.
406
I actually met Donald Trump and shook his hand and looked him in the eye, and it tells me a lot when you look a person in the eye. He’s a man’s man first and foremost; you know, you can’t pretty much, you know, put him to the side and expect anything less than a good fight.
407
Donald Trump, in my judgment, would make a perilous world even more dangerous. I worry that his tendency to lash out and his ill-informed comments would cause dangerous events to escalate and possibly spin out of control at a time when our world is beset with conflicts.
408
I happen to think Donald Trump is crazy, but that’s not an economic message.
409
Donald Trump has a mantra of despair, of loss. He says we don’t have victories anymore. We used to have victories, but we don’t. And he says the American dream is dead.
410
I would advise Donald Trump to try to bring and unify this party together.
411
I’m really – there’s more of a chance that I stay on the Titanic than – than I go on, you know, on a Donald Trump boat.
412
I wouldn’t want my comedy show to hurt anybody. I’m not Donald Trump.
413
With a sinking feeling, I have come to a horrible conclusion: I am addicted to Donald Trump.
414
I think that Corbyn’s success, just as the success of Bernie Sanders and Donald Trump, is a reflection of this frustration that people have that whatever they do, in terms of voting for different parties, nothing much seems to change.
415
The Internet didn’t cause Donald Trump, and it certainly can’t solve Donald Trump.
416
When it comes to trade, when it comes to standing up to countries like North Korea, when it comes to standing up to guys like Vladimir Putin, Donald Trump is not a conservative.
417
Donald Trump can ultimately make the case for himself.
418
As ambassador to China, Huntsman never publicly objected to Obama’s trade policy, which allows China to take advantage of us – something that Donald Trump highlighted. Challenging Obama on China is one of the keys to beating him.
419
Barack Obama was a good president, and hopefully, Donald Trump is a good president.
420
We can’t cross our fingers and hope that President Donald Trump can ‘learn and change.’
421
The challenge with a candidate like Donald Trump is he’s not a conventional candidate, and he doesn’t run a conventional campaign, and he doesn’t answer questions in a conventional way.
Joel Benenson
422
Donald Trump – you can say a lot of negative things about him, and I do, and I think he’s completely unprepared for the office, and he lacks the fabric to lead this nation, but if there’s one thing that he understands, it’s branding and how to navigate the media.
423
We need a new leader in Congress who will represent the issues that Donald Trump ran on because they were the winning issues.
424
I said Donald Trump could never be elected, confidently fueled by the empirical data of professional polling, a certainty in the vital necessity of field operations, and the knowledge his own campaign team (even on the night of the election) was ratting out the shambolic train wreck his campaign had been. I was wrong.
425
The Democrats have failed to have a real robust message for working-class people in places like Ohio – these states that Donald Trump came in and won.
426
I am not Donald Trump. I cannot see my people suffer in front of my eyes.
427
Hate is contagious. A few seconds after Donald Trump has told me something hateful, somebody else repeats it. He has legitimized what people only dare say in their kitchens and bedrooms.
428
It wasn’t the smiling Trump that people elected. It was the frowning, glowering, angry Donald Trump that people elected.
429
I’ve sat down with Donald Trump in an hour-and-a-half-long meeting with several of the representatives; he was very engaging. He listened to our concerns and our thoughts. I find him very parental.
430
Bill Clinton is just as gross as Donald Trump – so much so that the Clinton campaign can’t really back Trump into a corner on his integrity or mistreatment of women because Bill’s personal history is so damn awful.
431
I had a very weird, very vivid dream. Donald Trump and I were in some kind of room. It was an office with pictures on the wall behind us, and we were standing next to each other posing for a picture.
432
When you hear Donald Trump say ‘America First,’ that was a Klan slogan from the early 1900s. Trump simply resurrected it. It’s a clear example of his racist attitude.
433
Donald Trump is either going to resign, he’s going to be removed from office by impeachment, or I’m going to beat him in 2020. But one way or the other, he’s not going to serve a second term.
434
Republicans with any moral sense are desperate for a supportable alternative to Donald Trump.
435
While Democrats, including Barack Obama, mocked the notion that Russia is the greatest threat to our country, nobody has been tougher on Russia and Vladimir Putin than President Donald Trump.
436
What he’s really talking about – and I’m speaking for Mike Flynn, not Donald Trump – is that he’s saying, essentially, we have to have options. We have to have a lot of options. And, frankly, we do. We do have a lot of options.
437
Donald Trump promises to impose, soon after his inauguration, a new requirement on federal agencies: If they want to issue a new regulation, they have to rescind two regulations that are now on the books. The idea of ‘one in, two out’ has rhetorical appeal, but it’s going to be extremely hard to pull off.
438
I would argue that electing Donald Trump would be a disaster for minorities; it would be a disaster when it comes to foreign policy.
439
Golf mogul Donald Trump sports an arrangement of hair that is less a comb-over than a ‘do-over, a candy-floss confection of gossamer wisps that comes off as the clumsiest cover-up since Watergate.
440
Donald Trump has proven adept at mobilizing anti-immigrant and anti-trade sentiment among a minority of Americans into a strong movement that seeks to put the United States first in global affairs. Yet, his is not the majority’s view.
441
Paul Ryan is loved in our state because he’s a conservative who has advocated for conservative policies, and Donald Trump coming out saying favorable things about Mr. Ryan’s opponent doesn’t add to the number of voters in Wisconsin that’ll vote Donald Trump.
442
In New York, you’ve got Donald Trump, Woody Allen, a crack addict and a regular Joe, and they’re all on the same subway car.
443
Probably nobody in America has come close to setting up as many jobs for people with his business as Donald Trump has.
444
In picking Gen. Jim Mattis for Defense secretary, President-elect Donald Trump has said that he found his ‘Gen. George Patton.’ Yet that label may not really capture what makes Mattis a distinctive choice.
445
President Donald Trump has now sued the New York Times, the Washington Post, and CNN over opinion pieces that they’ve published – and really, he should stop.
446
I have nothing to do with Donald Trump.
447
A person like Donald Trump, who has said what he’s said about Muslims, Mexicans, women, George Bush, John McCain – a person like that should not be the nominee of our party or be the president, and I will campaign for an alternative to Donald Trump until that avenue is no longer open.
448
Maybe my job made 0.1% of difference, but Donald Trump did 99.9% of the work, and anyone who tells you different doesn’t know Donald Trump.
449
Events keep happening that seem inexplicable and out of control. Donald Trump, Brexit, the War in Syria, the endless migrant crisis, random bomb attacks.
450
I’d tell you whose brand was tainted is Donald Trump. I mean, this guy was tainted every kind of way you could imagine. I mean, no way in the world that Donald Trump is a champion of working people.
451
Some have said, ‘Gosh, Donald Trump is going to hurt you.’ Some have said, ‘Gosh Donald Trump is going to help you.’ He may be helpful in certain parts of Ohio, but I’m going to run my own campaign.
452
If you don’t believe this election is important, if you think you can sit it out, take a moment to think about the Supreme Court justices that Donald Trump would nominate and what that would mean to civil liberties, equal rights, and the future of our country.
453
But I will say this, look, I don’t think that there’s anyone in the country who thinks that impeachment’s going to lead to Donald Trump leaving office. The point is, you need to put down a marker as to who is accountable, what the President can get away with.
454
Just as Donald Trump is abrogating America’s responsibility to lead the fight against climate change, Theresa May is evading Britain‘s role.
455
I have serious challenges with Donald Trump and his messaging that is going to make it more difficult for us to bring in minorities, Hispanics, into the party and into our voting base in November. I would be concerned about him carrying the banner for the Republican Party.
456
Liberals may mock people of faith who believe he was chosen to protect their values, but I believe Donald Trump is fulfilling his pledges and I pray he will continue to lead with divine guidance.
457
Let me tell you what changed my mind: it was when Donald Trump picked Mike Pence to be his running mate. I was convinced that Donald Trump knew exactly what he was doing, and he knew that was rounded out the ticket in many ways.
458
Donald Trump understands media. He’s a television star. And he’s connected with America.
459
You know, I would say that I understand why the voters in Kentucky voted for Donald Trump. They are tired of the swamp. They are tired of the dysfunction.
460
I’m not a doctor. I can only assess that Donald Trump that I knew in 2003 and the Donald Trump that I knew in 2017. And he is not the same man.
461
Donald Trump speaks his mind. If you like it or you don’t like it, at least you know where he stands.
462
Despite the left’s best hopes, the Manafort indictment didn’t contain a single reference to the Trump campaign and the charges he faces are completely tailored to a decade of shady business deals overseas. Collusion wasn’t the center of the charges and President Donald Trump was left out of it.
463
The bottom line is, there’re a lot of conservatives that don’t feel Donald Trump is conservative, right? Or, he’s not their brand of conservatism… and there’s a lot of people who don’t have a seat on the inside who used to have a seat on the inside.
464
Donald Trump became President of the United States because of a simple but potent combination of promises: draining the swamp, building the wall, correcting free trade imbalances, and making America great again.
465
Putin has built a mobilisation society, his sky high popularity numbers, which Donald Trump so envies, are fully dependent on being able to mobilise the population against an enemy and that imagined enemy is the United States.
466
Donald Trump has brought jobs back to this country.
467
While Donald Trump claimed during the campaign that he would be a ‘friend’ to the LGBTQ community, we knew it was likely one more ‘alternative fact’ spouted by the President and his team.
468
There are no points for civility or decency when it comes to prosecuting the campaign against Donald Trump.
469
When candidate Donald Trump said things that I didn’t necessarily agree with, I would call him on it.
470
Women cannot be equal participants in a society that views sexual assault and sexual harassment the way Donald Trump and his defenders do.
471
Donald Trump is a breath of fresh air in the nation where the political establishment from both parties has betrayed their constituencies time and time again.
472
As he assumes the awesome responsibilities of the presidency, Donald Trump has inherited a world on fire and a U.S. military weakened by years of senseless budget cuts. I am encouraged that he recognizes these problems and has pledged to rebuild the military.
473
Tiger Woods has known Donald Trump… for many years, well before he became the president. He knows the true Donald Trump, not the one that the mainstream media tries to post up all the time.
474
My father was Donald Trump in many ways. His narcissism. I grew up with that generation of guys from New York, a generation of New York phony snake-oil-salesmen kind of energy.
475
My heart aches watching Donald Trump… pouring his heart out… How can anyone doubt his sincerity?
476
I believed I paved the way for Donald Trump. I brought ridiculousness to politics and he saw an opening and just jumped on in there.
477
Donald Trump is an idiot and a moron and just a kook of the first order, but he is surrounded by a bunch of guys like me, who are ride-or-die for him. They don’t love him ideologically, but they’re stuck. And they’re very smart. And they’re very determined and they will do anything to win.
478
Donald Trump tells us that he is very, very smart. I’m afraid that when it comes to foreign policy, he is very, very not smart.
479
The ultimate question is whether the name Donald Trump will be attached to an era – whether he will so change America that it will never be the same afterward.
480
Economic anxiety might not have won Donald Trump the White House, but much of his strongest support came from more sclerotic rural and industrial areas.
481
In light of the exit from the race by Ted Cruz and John Kasich, it is now clear that Donald Trump will accumulate the delegates necessary to be nominated by the Republican Party.
482
Before Donald Trump took office, optimism about his presidency was the lowest of any president-elect since at least the 1970s.
483
Donald Trump was in a tuxedo, standing next to his award: a statue of a palm tree, as tall as a toddler. It was 2010, and Trump was being honored by a charity – the Palm Beach Police Foundation – for his ‘selfless support’ of its cause. His support did not include any of his own money.
484
Donald Trump, like most Americans, like most Republicans, believe in protecting America’s core national interests.
485
I have a bigger voice than Donald Trump, you know what I’m saying? Than literally anybody that works in politics.
486
Donald Trump is certainly an American original. Barack Obama, he’s an American original. Where else but in America could that man become president? George W. Bush, a very different man from his father. These guys, they have their distinct voice and their distinct agenda.
487
Every racist that I know – and I know a lot of racists – every racist that I know voted for Donald Trump.
488
Donald Trump wouldn’t work on paper. Obnoxious, crass, boastful, and vulgar, with garish tastes and a Stepford wife – as a fictional character, he’d seem too crudely drawn. Even in a trashy airport thriller, readers wouldn’t buy such a boor as president.
489
Little things had to go wrong for Donald Trump to become president: Comey, emails, all that stuff. Big things did make Trump possible. Big, cultural, political, economic forces opened the door to someone like Trump.
490
It kills me to hear Donald Trump talking.
491
I didn’t tell anybody anywhere on planet Earth that I support Donald Trump as a candidate.
492
Donald Trump is anathema to America.
493
Problems in our country haven’t been caused by Donald Trump, America and its ambitions or CIA spies. Our problems are rooted in a bad government system, the lack of free elections, independent courts and freedom of speech.
494
I’ve yet to see an example of somebody standing up to Donald Trump and suggesting policy initiatives and him embracing them yet. It’s not happening at scale.
495
Donald Trump is running this campaign. And I’m working directly for Donald Trump.
496
Donald Trump often appears on Fox, which is ironic because a fox often appears on Donald Trump’s head.
497
I’ve been wrong on everything about Trump; I’ve been wrong about everything on the Republican side of the ledger. But allow me – with that caveat – to made the prediction that Donald Trump will not be the president of the United States. It just will not happen.
498
I think I had come from a consumer world for a long time and America and eyeballs were moving to social media in huge numbers, especially on mobile phones and devices. And when Donald Trump asked me to work on the campaign I also knew I had a great piece of product that would resonate with Americans.
499
Out of Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton, I would rather Clinton be president, but just overall, I would rather Obama have a third term.
500
Donald Trump is at his very best, at his very best, when he talks about the issues.
501
Donald Trump talks about everyone behind their backs.
502
Donald Trump won the election. I think that’s true. I also think there was interference. If this was another country, I think we’d be demanding another election.
503
In America you can be Donald Trump, have a business go wrong, and file for Chapter 11. You can move on, and no one complains. When his casinos were in Chapter 11, he was still on TV telling people how to get rich. I had to persevere for years with easyInternet because I couldn’t afford to hurt the brand.
504
For Donald Trump, Latinos are second-class citizens. We believe we are all Americans. We believe we are strong together. There is a big difference in this sense between the two parties and the candidates.
505
I’ve come around to thinking that having Donald Trump in the White House would be wonderful. Even if he isn’t able to achieve very much. Now, daddy‘s gonna build the wall, daddy’s gonna fix trade. That’s going to happen.
506
When it comes to me not supporting Donald Trump, it’s pretty much correlated to the things he has said.
507
Donald Trump tests the limits of campaign speech. He makes false statements and refuses to correct them. He attacks other religions and ethnic groups, inflaming domestic tension and foreign terrorist rage.
508
Silence is not what democracy needs. Right now we have an election where, even the supporters of Hillary Clinton, the majority don’t support Hillary; they just oppose Donald Trump. And the majority of Donald Trump supporters don’t support him; they just oppose Hillary.
509
I think Donald Trump believes in putting a wall around America and hoping everything turns out OK.
510
Donald Trump should be focused on how to fix the country, not an award show.
511
Say what you will about Donald Trump, he cares. He cares about things I don’t, and he has some awful ideas, and he is an amoral man in so many ways. But, in contrast to Obama, his emotions are no mystery.
512
I am solidly, 100 percent behind Donald Trump.
513
Donald Trump, like many cult leaders, understands the power his words will have over the minds and actions of his followers… but few cult leaders have a pet media infrastructure.
514
There’s no question I’m going to do everything within the normal political bounds to make sure we don’t nominate Donald Trump.
515
There’s no question I’m going to do everything within the normal political bounds to make sure we don’t nominate Donald Trump. I think he would be terribly unfit for office.
516
Oh, man. I think if anybody deserves to be inducted into the Hall of Pain, it’s Donald Trump.
517
I have said this before. Donald Trump is very popular in Pennsylvania. We cannot afford to underestimate his popularity in our state. And I have emphasized that continuously.
518
How Donald Trump has come so far with so few words – how he even managed to keep up conversationally with all those beauty queens – is a question I don’t expect ever to be solved.
519
I believe that trying to deal with Donald Trump is like trying to play three-card monte in Central Park: it’s not going to work out.
520
The rise of Donald Trump established a new ground zero for liberal media, requiring no pretence of balance – better yet, with a kind of political brain haemorrhage, everybody seemed to have lost the ability to be balanced.
521
The rise of Donald Trump has exposed a deep chasm in America between the haves and have-nots.
522
I couldn’t believe that Donald Trump won. I couldn’t believe that we elected an orangutan to front the country.
523
The status quo is not working, and I believe that Donald Trump is going to be a phenomenal president.
524
If Donald Trump wants to acknowledge that we have a pay gap for women and we need to address it, I would work with Donald Trump.
525
Donald Trump really understood how to float a story, how to float a rumor, how to manipulate the truth.
526
Some commentators have attacked the special counsel regulations as giving the attorney general the power to close a case against the president, as Mr. Barr did with the obstruction of justice investigation into Donald Trump. But the criticscomplaint here is not with the regulations but with the Constitution itself.
527
The second thing I know about Donald trump is that he is truly pro-life. I have talked to him in Trump Tower. He believes in protecting the unborn.
528
I support Donald Trump, but I also support abortion and a women’s right to choice, what to do with their body.
529
I am very glad that Paul Ryan left the government as a capitulating supplicant to Donald Trump while the government was shut down, while the debt hit record levels, right? Every single thing Paul Ryan claimed to care about.
530
When my good friend Jeff Sessions endorsed Donald Trump, that was good enough for me.
531
I support Donald Trump because I believe he’s a businessperson that’s going to get the economy going, but also he’s going to focus on how we destroy ISIS.
532
As a presidential candidate, Donald Trump promised to ‘fix the rigged system.’ By ‘fix,’ he apparently meant rigging it to permanently benefit billionaires like himself.
533
Donald Trump is many things – a tantrum-throwing man-child and a wannabe strongman pining for his very own banana republic among them – but perhaps most of all he is a giant, melon-colored distraction from what is happening to our country under his watch.
534
When we say, ‘Look, Donald Trump was a friend to hip hop back in the day; so was Bill Clinton,’ It doesn’t mean that because he was a friend to hip hop back in the day, that the same Bill Clinton wasn’t at the lead of this mass incarceration of African Americans today.
535
Winning ‘The Apprentice’ changed my life in ways I could never have imagined. It has been an amazing experience working for Donald Trump and I am very grateful for the whole opportunity.
536
Let’s face it – Donald Trump is a very, very good con man.
537
For members of the Democratic Party, and progressives all over the world, it is difficult to overstate or hyperbolize the despair and dread that has descended upon them in the wake of President-elect Donald Trump.
538
The day after Donald Trump was elected, Chinese business leaders, including the heads of Baidu, stood up and gave a speech saying, ‘Come to China and build your company now.’ The cognitive dissonance of that was amazing for some of us to think we might be losing our leadership role in building companies.
539
Someone like Donald Trump can’t control the way I show love to my brother. He can’t control the way I feel about my neighbors.
540
I can tell you Donald Trump’s products may not be made in America, but Donald Trump was made in America.
541
The fight for civil rights did not end when Donald Trump was elected president. We’ve got work to do.
542
Hillary Clinton may have lied about her emails, but Donald Trump lies about everything.
543
Do not overlook that Donald Trump is an inherently unstable person. He’s never been able to have stable businesses or stable marriages. It is then wholly predictable that Donald Trump would be unable to have a stable presidency.
544
As the country gets to know me more, they will see the reason I care so much about Russia is I understand why they thought to help Donald Trump.
545
Before Donald Trump, the Republican Party was a majority conservative party with a white nationalist fringe. Now it’s a white nationalist party with a conservative fringe.
546
Donald Trump is a leader. He produces results and is ready to get tough in order to protect American jobs and families.
547
I am not ashamed to support Donald Trump.
548
I’m sick and tired of only being asked about everything that Donald Trump says or does.
549
When Donald Trump becomes president of the United States of America, the change will be… huge.
550
I would never make fun of anyone who is obviously disabled who cannot defend himself, like Donald Trump.
551
I was incredibly – I’ve never been more confident of anything in my life that Hillary Clinton was going to win and Donald Trump would lose by a very large margin.
552
I – look, I, you know, I find Donald Trump completely un-presidential, unacceptable. I don’t like his methods. I don’t think he’s got any policies.
553
There’s only one podcast subject that can give Donald Trump a run for his money when it comes to vulgarity, excess, and base comedy, and that’s football.
554
I certainly won’t vote for Hillary Clinton, but I cannot and will not vote for Donald Trump.
555
I will not be silenced. I will not be intimidated. I’m not going to be bullied by Donald Trump.
556
Donald Trump is fighting for working people, and he’s fighting to restore the borders around this country that are the essential ingredient for national sovereignty and national success in a way that nobody has who has held that office not only in my lifetime but, frankly, in the history of this country.
557
He has a style that is not my style. And that is fine. That’s Donald Trump. And guess what? That’s exactly who the base of the Republican Party supported and said that’s who we want to carry the banner.
558
The basic right to quality and affordable health care is under assault by Donald Trump and Republicans in Washington.
559
I’m not a spokesperson for Donald Trump.
560
Being a Christian and seeing that white evangelical Christians were primarily the people who put guys like Donald Trump into office made my entire world explode.
561
Donald Trump is clearly the underdog in this race. Just about every organized institution has thrown everything it has at him. And they won’t stop until they get their wish, that Hillary Clinton will be sworn in on January 20, 2017.
562
On the House side, when Donald Trump came, he received multiple standing ovations.
563
I mean, I got reelected in 2016. Donald Trump took Montana by 20 points. I won by four. Twenty-five to 30% of my voters voted for Donald Trump. And that’s not, for me, changing who I am.
564
Priebus has been trying to clean up for Donald Trump for far too long. When he was making outrageous statements, when he was basically lying.
565
When President Donald Trump nominated Judge Neil Gorsuch to serve on the Supreme Court, I said that he deserved a fair hearing and a vote. I said this even though Senate Republicans filibustered dozens of President Obama‘s judicial nominees and then stopped President Obama’s Supreme Court nominee, Judge Merrick Garland.
566
The American people elected somebody who’s tough, who is smart, and who is a fighter. It’s Donald Trump. And I don’t think it’s a surprise to anybody that he fights fire with fire.
567
We welcome Donald Trump at ‘Hamilton,’ absolutely.
568
For many of us, this is very painful, pulling the lever for someone many think odious. But please consider this: A vote for Donald Trump is not necessarily a vote for Donald Trump himself. It is a vote for those who will be affected by the results of this election. Not to vote is to vote. God will not hold us guiltless.
569
One of the bad things about bad behavior by politicians (particularly by Donald Trump, because he’s president, but by others as well) is that it not only can encourage bad behavior by politicians of all ideological stripes but also can be cited to justify it.
570
Since taking office, Donald Trump and Mike Pence have governed the exact same way they campaigned, which is with bigotry and with bluster, and that includes toward the LGBTQ community.
571
Donald Trump is trying to build a wall. I’m trying to burn walls down and build more bridges.
572
When President Donald Trump took office, he immediately began a process to remove and replace undue regulatory burdens that stifle American innovation and economic development. At the top of the list was the Obama Administration’s 2015 Waters of the United States rule.
573
If ever we deserved a candidate at this moment in our culture, that candidate is Donald Trump.
574
I never thought I’d be covering the White House. I never thought I’d be covering the White House for CNN. And I never thought I’d be covering the White House for CNN while Donald Trump was president.

Donald Trump will become president even after losing the popular vote in our November elections by a wide margin. To govern effectively, he must appeal to a broader base than what he campaigned on and avoid the divisive rhetoric that alienated so many Americans.
576
The Establishment on both the Left and the Right, who want to disenfranchise the millions of Republican voters who support Donald Trump, have blamed the staged riots near Trump rallies on Trump or on Bernie Sanders. That’s like blaming the Russians for the Reichstag Fire.
577
Donald Trump is a man who likes to think he has few equals.
578
The Senate impeachment trial of President Donald Trump will undoubtedly leave millions of Americans dissatisfied about the outcome, conviction or not. What must not happen, however, is millions of Americans feeling that the process itself violated the letter and spirit of our Constitution.
579
Donald Trump is producing the kind of shoot-the-moon economic recovery that we last saw under Ronald Reagan in the 1980s. He’s copied a lot of the Reagan playbook: Deregulate, cut taxes, promote American energy.
580
It turns out that Donald Trump has been very good at buying low and selling high, and it helps account for his amazing business success.
581
I’ve been making fun of Donald Trump – we all have – for 10 years, and just bringing up his name… I mean, even if you’re supportive of Donald Trump, there’s still a lot to make fun of.
582
Donald Trump did not cause America’s democratic crisis of faith, he rode to power on it. Once in control, he and other populists discovered their room for manoeuvre was expanded by the same disillusionment that helped them into office.
583
Americans needs to understand that the election of Donald Trump has forestalled our slide into the abyss of cultural Marxism and the surrendering of our national heritage and identity to that of the global community.
584
The president and I had much more important stuff to talk about than Donald Trump. I’ve never discussed Mr. Trump with the president of the United States.
585
I think that with Donald Trump, the United States will have a president who is not ideologically limited; that is, he is an open person, much more interested in success, efficiency, and results than political theories.
586
With George Bush, I had absolutely no fear that I would ever be silenced. With Donald Trump, I think I could get dragged offstage and have people actually cheer it. I never thought that would happen in America.
587
I’m the same businessman Donald Trump is.
588
Donald Trump is the physical embodiment of what David Duke wanted to achieve and failed.
589
The problem is Donald Trump was an outsider to politics. He really didn’t have a team of seasoned political veterans around him who had worked together and knew how to work together and get something done.
590
I am not a post-liberal and I do not think that such a return to full 19th-century anticlericalism inevitable or even likely – which is one reason among many that I doubt the bargain many religious conservatives have made with Donald Trump.
591
I’m supporting Donald Trump because Donald Trump is against this trade deal, this Trans Pacific Partnership, this job-killing trade deal that is going to bring cheap labor into this country.
592
Donald Trump is a lost soul wandering this Earth. He’s been led down the Willy Loman path and believes his own hype. He’s serving his little self and his little ego; otherwise, why would he need to overcompensate so much?
593
God used Donald Trump in my life as much as I was used in his life.
594
The thing most frightening about Donald Trump is he doesn’t know what he doesn’t know and doesn’t seem to care about what he doesn’t know, and as a result of that, he doesn’t know what the consequences of his actions might be.
595
You don’t change Donald Trump. You don’t ‘manage’ him.
596
I’m black, and he’s said some controversial stuff about black people. When it comes to me not supporting Donald Trump, it’s correlated to the things he has said. I have a gay uncle. All the things he said in his campaign are things I can’t associate myself with.
597
The word ‘populism’ was everywhere in 2016. Political leaders claiming to speak for the people have achieved significant victories in Europe, Asia, and, with the election of Donald Trump, the United States.
598
For me, Melania represents America. We’re all reluctantly married to Donald Trump now. She is a vehicle to making fun of him. I can’t do a Donald Trump impersonation, but I can impersonate her.
599
President-elect Donald Trump has a host of national security challenges to deal with as he assumes office, from the resurgence of the Taliban in Afghanistan to the grinding Syrian civil war to the flexing of Russian muscles under President Vladimir Putin to how to deal with ISIS as the terrorist army retreats in Iraq.
600
DeSantis can do the bidding of big business and big lobbyists and Donald Trump and his divisive rhetoric. I’m going to be here to do the business of the people of the state of Florida. That’s the job of the governor of this state.
601
I’ve heard Donald Trump say some pretty unhinged things. I’ve heard them over and over and over again. But nothing is more dangerous to our democracy than his attacks on mail-in voting in the middle of a pandemic.
602
Donald Trump has shown us his dark heart, has shown us his racism.
603
It comes down to the simple idea that government has grown substantially under Barack Obama, and government has been a failure in American’s lives, and Hillary Clinton wants to grow government even further. I think Donald Trump wants to restrain government and shrink government.
604
The critics of Donald Trump are looking for people to blame for his rise. There are many people who are either surprised by his strength or don’t like him and want to blame someone to explain why he has been this popular.
605
Donald Trump is already losing badly to Hillary Clinton. He is a weak candidate, and he’s performing that way.
606
Donald Trump is not a 71-year-old white man. He is an Indian uncle. He wears suits that don’t fit; he can’t speak English properly. He works with his idiotic sons; he hates women but loves his daughter. He makes up words when he gets angry. He is an Indian uncle.
607
Trump is Trump. Some people find him hilarious. I don’t find it hilarious, but you can’t say it’s dull. There’s nothing credible about Donald Trump.
608
I don’t know what a conservative is, you know, but I do know what good people are. And that’s where I sit with Donald Trump.
609
If you look at the other 16 candidates who ran for president, they’re politicians. Everybody on the Hill knows them. And sometimes they know their families. No one really knows Donald Trump.
610
It’s a matter of opinion on many of these issues, and there’s no right or wrong. That’s why we have elections; that’s why we have debates. Donald Trump thinks one thing. Hillary Clinton thinks another thing.
611
Donald Trump is the steadfast leader our nation needs.
612
You know Donald Trump will secure our borders.
613
I want to ensure that the people of the 5th District continue to benefit from the sensible economic policies under the leadership of President Donald Trump. Because of our President, more African Americans are employed now than ever before in the history of our country.
614
To say Donald Trump would be a disaster for our country, our democracy, and our future would be doing a grave disservice to the word ‘disaster.’
615
Donald Trump is defeating himself. He is ensuring that Hillary Clinton is elected. I think they would both be absolutely terrible.
616
If Donald Trump wants to pass comprehensive immigration reform, I will work with Donald Trump.
617
Carving out our own role, distinct from America’s, might not be easy. But we must ask ourselves: what alternative is there? Unthinking, uncritical loyalty to the U.S. under Donald Trump is a far less appealing idea.
618
The people, as much as it’s fun to hate us, they need us. They need good, strong, skeptical journalists to be covering whoever it is – whether it’s Barack Obama or President Donald Trump.
619
I’m black, and I don’t support Donald Trump in any way, shape, or form.
620
I think the thing that you’ve seen with Donald Trump is that he doesn’t – he doesn’t look to the past and say, ‘I’ve got to conform to these precedents.’
621
Donald Trump is President of the United States and his National Security Council works for him. If he wants to fire someone, so be it.
622
Because a lot of people are hurting economically and being shafted by the very wealthy, it’s been possible here in the United States of America to organize them and persuade them that to elect a nincompoop like Donald Trump is actually in their best interest. When clearly it isn’t.
623
My friends in the TV news business are in a state of despair about Donald Trump, even as their bosses in the boardroom are giddy over what he’s doing for their once sagging ratings.
624
My daughter’s met Hillary Clinton, so she’s got a strong bias. But she, of course, parrots me and goes, ‘Oh, Donald Trump, I don’t like him!’ I’m like, ‘That’s good!’
625
We look at Donald Trump: his bottom line is interconnected to all kinds of financial interests that he refuses to disclose. They actually affect his net worth.
Robby Mook
626
I am going out there working hard every day making sure people know that my vision is a compelling one for my country, that I have the experience and that I can win against Donald Trump.
627
I don’t know how humble a person can be while consistently spouting statements like ‘I, Donald Trump, am a totally gifted politician,’ or ‘I’m, like, a smart person.’
628
However Donald Trump came upon the foreign policy views he espoused, they were as crucial to his election as his views on trade and the border.
629
What links Donald Trump, Viktor Orban, Andrej Babis, Jaroslaw Kaczynski and Marine Le Pen is one simple character trait: hypocrisy. These politicians aren’t tribunes of the people, they are hucksters. They aren’t bitter enemies of the Western system; they are con artists who seek to profit from it.
630
You’ll never hear me say a negative thing about Donald Trump.
631
The point is – that Donald Trump has been making on the campaign trail is that he’s financing his own campaign. That’s very important for him to say now in his mind because he wants people to know that he owes nobody anything other than the American people, or the voters who are picking, choosing his candidacy.
632
So when people say how horrible it is that Donald Trump is president, well, yeah, but we’ve faced a lot worse than this and our country went on to go from the world of ‘Mad Men‘ to the world it is today, and that’s what’s going to happen now. That’s what’s going to happen in the next 50 years. We’re going to be fine.
633
I do not think it is a coincidence that young people gravitated toward populist voices in the French election and that the two issue positions where Donald Trump and young voters seem to agree most – global engagement and trade – are rooted in populism.
634
The one question I would have for Donald Trump is inspired by his ‘Make America Great Again’ cap. I would ask him, ‘When was America great? When did America not have an economic depression or a war?’
635
Let’s make Donald Trump explain his hair.
636
The greatest hoax of all of the Trump years is that Donald Trump has convinced one-third of the country not to believe not anything but Sean Hannity and Fox and Trump.
637
In a depressing twist, many members of my party and ideological persuasion have become advocates for Donald Trump on a scale that ranges from grudging to toadying, for a simple reason that seems to overwhelm all other factors: He attacks the media. Many are willing to forgive almost any sin because of it.
638
I don’t care about Donald Trump. I mean, God is my president. So I just feel sorry for people it affects, but I don’t care about him.
639
I’ve fundraised for Hillary, and I’ll be voting for her. I don’t think we should be electing Donald Trump as president, and I’m supportive of Hillary’s campaign.
640
You have to come to full realization of just how horrible things are. And this is how horrible things are: Donald Trump is almost the President of the United States.
641
For me, Mr. T and Donald Trump are the same sort of phenomenon – they’re guys with catchphrases and wacky hair.
642
Democrats will come together as we should to make sure that we can defeat Donald Trump and elect our party’s nominee.
643
Kentuckians voted for Donald Trump because they wanted to drain the swamp and lower prescription drug prices. A lot of what has stood in the way of what Donald Trump promised is Senator McConnell.
644
I’m not going to vote for Donald Trump. There’s no way I would vote for him under any circumstance. However, I think that the protesters may as well send him some money, because I think they’re going to push people into his camp.
645
They say that if you voted for Donald Trump, you’re a threat to the university community. But the real threat is silencing the First Amendment rights of people with whom you disagree.
646
I can’t really speak on her policies, but I feel a certain connection to Hillary Clinton that’s just not there with Donald Trump.
647
Donald Trump was not asked by the leadership to change. And there’s no reason for him to change. He’s just won the primary process with a record number of votes, beating a field of 16 qualified candidates. So, there’s no reason for Donald Trump to change.
648
When I heard Donald Trump make that sweeping hysterical statement that all Muslims have to be banned because they are terrorists, I was chilled by that.
649
I think Donald Trump might be racist.
650
Donald Trump went through the process, he earned the vote, and I am not in support of overturning the will of the voters.
