If We Say Something Often

Democracy Requires You To Learn How To Lose As Well As How To Exercise Power When You Win. And That Requires Restraint All Around. One Of The Reasons It Works Is Because When You Win You Don't Do Things That Are So Upsetting To The Losers That They Feel Like They Have Less, They Have More To Gain By Turning Over The System.

One Of The Things You Can Learn From A Figure Like Venezuela's Hugo Chavez Is That If You Take All The Resources Of The State For Yourself, You Don't Build Much Of A Constituency And You Have To Rely On Repression, And Repression Is Difficult In The Modern World.

One Of The Questions I Often Get Asked Is, "were You Surprised That Trump Won?" I Always Answer The Same Way: "i Was Surprised, I Am Surprised And I Will Never Stop Being Surprised."

Trump Is Not Just Unlike A Republican, He's Unlike A Presidential Candidate. The Whole Elaborate Presidential Process Is Designed To Screen Out People Like Donald Trump. And That Process Broke Down In Ways Quite Unlike Anything In The Recent Experience Of The United States.

Republicans Have To Move To A Point Of Greater Unity.
