The level of dishonesty is out of control. The public doesnt believe you people anymore. Now, maybe i had something to do with that, i dont know. As you know i have a running war with the media.

Hes been probably the sagelemost key negotiator. He sees some of the dynamics as potential something to be optimistic about, specifically this idea that the senate would be able to move forward sometime
