I think there's a couple of things going on. One is that Trump's relationship with his base is not the traditional relationship of a politician and the people who elected him, and the constituency, which is a relationship of some accountability, right?

There are so many things on Twitter, so many mentions, it's hard to get through all of them.
I think my films are always political, even if I don't put explicitly political things in them.

You know, I have found out in the course of a long public life that the things I did not say never hurt me.
