The president’s rattling the saber and beating the drums may have an effect.
We all either work for rich people or we sell stuff to rich people. So just punishing rich people is as bad for the economy as punishing anyone. Let’s not punish anyone. Let’s keep taxes low and let’s cut spending.
We have a lot of politicians who have really small brains and really big hearts.
I’ve had an interest in politics since I was a little kid.
I think it’s a conundrum. If we have no laws on this, people take it to one extension further, does it have to be humans, you know?

If you are accused of being associated with terrorism, which could mean you are an Arab- American and you’ve sent e-mails to a relative in the Middle East, you should get your day in court, and I think you should get a lawyer and a trial, and I think most Americans agree to that.
