I'm an unelected adviser. I can't insist on my way.

You see it with Brexit, you see it in Donald Trump's election, you see it with the fact that neither of the main parties ended up in the final round of the French presidential election, you see it with the Italian referendum being defeated, you see it in a lot of ways - the political revolution.
Brexit was, at its heart, about democracy and sovereignty.
Abolish the monarchy. That is my populist take.
Most of the time, I get around perfectly well on my bike and public transportation, even in spite of the Bay Area's almost comically shambolic system.
The biggest threat to our economy comes from the loony left economic policies of the Democrats, which would scare off investment and bring back stagnation.
I don't think for one second anyone believes the 'Washington Post' and 'New York Times' are anything but aggressively against Trump.
I think what people are really crying out for is simple information they can trust when they're bombarded by attack ads, fundraising pitchers and all sort of comment and opinion all over the place increasingly.
These Wall Street types, they're not exactly the kind of people you want your children turning into. They're really not very smart. They're certainly not thoughtful or kind. They're often poorly-educated, mostly ignorant and always self-interested and greedy.
I listen to NPR a lot. And I can tell you that Mary Louise Kelly is one of the very few hosts on there who actually seems fair and is not totally biased against President Trump.
Obama never listened to anyone, always thought he was smarter than every expert in the room, and treated every meeting as an opportunity to lecture everyone else. This led to real-world disasters, like Syria and the rise of Isis.
I do not own a cellphone; I do not use a cellphone. I do not have a phone. No. Phone. Not even an old-fashioned dumb one. Nothing.
In business, there's a saying: 'Disagree and commit.' It means that everyone should speak up before a decision is made. But once the boss has decided, you all get behind it to make it happen.
What's interesting is that you've got a lot of overlap between supporters of different parties and different candidates who feel regardless of who's been in power, the rich have got richer and half the country's got poorer.
You can do business with America or the authoritarian dictators of Beijing, who oppress their own people, put millions of Muslims in concentration camps, and are rolling out a new and insidious colonialism around the world with their rapacious belt and road infrastructure program. Which side are you on, Britain? Canada? The EU? You choose.
One of the central planks of China's stated plan for world domination is their Belt and Road Initiative, which makes countries around the world dependent on China for vital infrastructure.
I'd love to have Bernie Sanders and Donald Trump together. How amazing would that be?
I think much of the media is decadent in the sense that the people who are producing the coverage, they themselves live very comfortable lives.
I never understood how, when if so many businesses can make a profit delivering services and products to state education, you could not take it further and allow for-profit operators to run some schools. Most people care about good outcomes, not whether something is for-profit or not.
It's a human thing to want to spend time with people you know well.
Factories are often at the heart of a community.
Forget about war or disease or poverty. The apocalypse is when America's elected president is no longer supervised by the unelected ruling establishment.
Establishment idiots say the Trump tax cuts only helped the rich. Don't they understand anything about economics?
The Democrats are up to their necks in foreign meddling. Nancy Pelosi took money from Ukraine lobbyists. Chuck Schumer took money from Saudi Arabia and Mexico.
Most countries in the world are not in the E.U. I think Britain, the world's fifth largest economy, can cope with life outside.
It's hard to pin me down because I'm a bit of Bernie Sanders, a bit of Rand Paul, bit of John Kasich.
Crowdpac is what I'm passionate about. I want to see it develop and grow, and I'm not really thinking anything except a long-term future for this business - but more importantly, for what this business can do for the long-term future of America.
The most important thing about a candidate is not their promises - those hardly ever get delivered anyway. It's about how they would respond to unpredictable future events. And that's about their character.
On issue after issue, yes, Trump is barging in. Yes, he is throwing out the old playbook. It's called change, and unlike Obama, who talked endlessly about change, President Trump is actually delivering it.
Joe Biden is compromised by China. He has taken billions of dollars from the Chinese government in the form of payments to his son's businesses.
On Russia, President Trump reverses the weakness of Obama, who turned a blind eye as Putin marched into Crimea and Ukraine by hitting Putin where it hurts - on energy.
There has been this slightly naive and perhaps arrogant view that technology can completely reinvent the political system and the way that government and politics works, which is ridiculous.
This is the Trump revolution. Pragmatic. Non-ideological. He approaches issues as a businessman. It's a revolution in ideas and it goes way beyond foreign policy.
There's an ideological belief on the left that you should not use nonpartisan tools.
People are really looking for greater sense of control of what happens in their lives, about the issues they really care about, and they feel that the political system doesn't necessarily deliver.
I don't really care much about what the top one per cent earn. The gap we ought to care about in wealth is between the middle and the bottom.
I was on my bike, cycling to Stanford, and it struck me that a week had gone by without my having a phone. And everything was just fine. Better than fine, actually. I felt more relaxed, carefree, happier.
Membership of the E.U. makes Britain literally ungovernable, in the sense that no administration elected by the people can govern the country.
The West's involvement in the Middle East has been a disaster from the start... and finally, with President Trump, America is in a position to bring it to an end.
What I love about California is this attitude of being supportive and positive about things. When you tell someone your idea, the answer is: 'Great, how can I help?' not 'Well that's not going to work.'
Surely everyone can agree that immigration should be controlled.
Thinking back to my time in the U.K., before the election and then working in the British government, the thing that has really driven me is this idea of giving power to people and taking power out of the hands of those who try and grab it all for themselves.
A lot of people are driven by an interest by one particular issue or a small number of specific issues rather than a candidate or a party or something broader.
Our democracies are increasingly captured by a ruling class that seeks to perpetuate its privileges.
The Trump economy is fundamentally strong and delivering good jobs and higher earnings for the working Americans who suffered in the years of stagnation.
Straight out of college, I worked at the Conservative Party but that was just a couple of years.
Even when they are trying to deceive the voters, the Democrats are incompetent.
Just as we ban smoking and drinking for under 16, because we want to shield young people from their harmful effects, we should do the same for smartphones.
In the E.U., the initiation of policy comes from the European Commission - not the European parliament, the European Commission, an appointed body; a committee of 27 countries where everything is haggled away.
My old boss, former British prime minister David Cameron, thought Obama was one of the most narcissistic, self-absorbed people he'd ever dealt with.
