If you want to oppose Trump, the first thing you should do is say, 'I'm not going to do one thing that makes it worse.' Because making it worse helps Trump. Part of the damage of this era is his debasement and his purposeful divisions. That's unique in all of history.

It's part of the mythology now in the Republican Party that there's widespread voter fraud all across the country. In fact, there's not.

A lot of people like me who worked in Republican politics had a personal set of beliefs on issues that were at variance with the candidates that we worked for.

The country badly needs to have a right-of-center political party, grounded in traditional values that the Republican Party represented till it didn't.

So the Republican party of Teddy Roosevelt and John McCain and Ronald Reagan and George W. Bush is dead. It's over. It doesn't exist anymore.
