“I think it’s a message of economic nationalism. It’s obviously one that has bubbled up before in certain pockets, but it’s never been the sort of powerful phenomenon that it is today.”

This is I think a dramatic point for conservatives. They are waking up to the fact that this guy, that Donald Trump has an ability to speak to people who they thought were theirs ideologically, people who they thought were a part of their team.

And for those of us who have, you know, looked in sort of the established order of the political fray over the course of the past several years, it looks like chaos. But to the people I think it looks like democracy.

Donald Trump’s rule at that time, the only thing that you couldn’t joke about was a suggestion that he has less money that he claimed to.

What we’re witnessing really is a political realignment, I mean I think we’re moving from a traditional understanding of left-right politics that we’ve had for a long time.

I think this is a moment where Donald Trump recognized the Republican establishment was much weaker, the party leaders were much weaker than they thought they were in terms of being able to dictate any outcomes.

I think that [Chris] Christie’s endorsement is, you know, it’s a sign that – you know, he is who we thought he was in so many different respects. He’s someone who ambition is the only thing that I think is bigger than his appetite.

I think one of the things we have in this modern, individualistic age is a recognition that happiness can look very different for very different people. Happiness is not necessarily about how much money you make, happiness isn’t necessarily about these aspects of your life.

Donald Trump came along and spoke in a language that speaks directly to a portion of the Republican base with what they want to hear. I don`t think that he actually has a very significant ideology.

And I think that that’s something that really is moving us to a new reality, where the parties are going to have to retrofit themselves and adapt to this new realignment.

Few years ago [Donald] Trump was being roasted by Comedy Central. They always have rules about things that you can’t joke about.

To something that looks very different. The thing to understand here is that Donald Trump, Bernie Sanders, they’re not the disease and they’re not the symptom of the disease. They are the beta test of a cure for the perspective of the people.

I think in this case, it`s a situation where he saw the one guy who he thinks he can maybe get a cabinet post with if he wins in Donald Trump. I think, you know, he kind of went out the door doing a number of favors in beating up Marco Rubio the way he did.

Essentially, the obligation of conservative media is to question what’s going on, and say, “Is this something that is the right thing to do? Is it something that’s constitutional? Is it something that is even wise to do?” I think that’s true regardless of who’s in power.

Conservatives have woken up to the fact they weren`t part of their team and they have a capability of having the kind of message that [Donald] Trump is delivering reach them on a very direct and very personal level so that they sign up. They are willing to go out there and work for him.

I always have this red nose in my pocket, and if it looks like I’m taking things too seriously, or the person I’m talking to is taking them too seriously, I put the nose on. It doesn’t matter what we’re doing or talking about, it doesn’t matter if we agree or disagree, the nose changes everything.

We don’t just borrow words; on occasion, English has pursued other languages down alleyways to beat them unconscious and rifle their pockets for new vocabulary.

It’s so cold here in Washington, D.C., that politicians have their hands in their own pockets.

Losers walking around with money in their pockets are always dangerous, not to be trusted. Some horse always reaches out and grabs them.

Always keep an ‘out’ in your hip pocket.

I hate a hook. It nauseates me. I could vomit when I see one. It’s like a rattlesnake in your pocket.

We learned that lesson very well, especially in the eighties, that terrorists cannot be used as a political card, you cannot put it in your pocket, because it’s like a scorpion; it will bite you someday.

If a pickpocket meets a Holy Man, he will see only His pockets.
