court, supreme court. i could go on and on. then you have the bureaucracies. it takes somebody who knows government and who loves government to make that government work and to be honest with you, we haven't had anybody in the white house that's loved government in a way that's required to make government work since bill clinton in the 1990s. forget ideology, forget who you love or didn't love, bill clinton understood it was a battle, he understood checks and balances and he understood that you couldn't go around making enemies. as he told me one time, the best trait a president can have is a short memory because you're always having to make a deal tomorrow with somebody who beat you up the day before. >> eugene robinson, thank you very much for being on this morning. we'll be reading your new column in today's "washington post" entitled "trump golfed instead of going to barbara bush's funeral. that was a good thing."
