My economic policies will save or create 4 million jobs. Unfortunately that will still leave 146 million of you unemployed. But this isn't about me. I have great health insurance.

I'd like to take this opportunity to give a shout-out to Elie Mystal. He's a cool dude. Also, I lied, even more jobs died. And some soldiers got shot in Texas, or something.

I don't know, not having been there and not seeing all the facts, what role race played in that, but I think it’s fair to say, number one, any of us would be pretty angry; number two that Columbia University theater department employee Camille Davis acted stupidly in causing Prof. McIntyre to punch her when there was already proof that he was drinking in his own regular bar; and, number three, that there's a long history in this country of African-Americans and Latinos having to punch white women because they refused to acknowledge how much they benefit from white privilege.

Well, I — I should have said at the outset that "Mac" is a friend, so I may be a little biased here.

I had a racist white grandmother, and, let me be clear, I did have to slap the white privilege out of her once in a while. Never with a closed fist though, so it wasn't a big deal.

Well, I — I should say at the outset that "Mac" is a friend, so I may be a little biased here, but I think it’s fair to say, number one, that some of these deferred associates need to have the white privilege slapped out of them just like Camille Davis and my racist white grandmother.

I oppose the legalization of marijuana. I do not think that’s the right plan for America. I also believe that marriage should be between one man and one woman.
