"When I put out a tweet, and I put Reince's name in the tweet, they're all making the assumption that it's him because journalists know who the leakers are. So, if Reince wants to explain that he's not a leaker, let him do that."
"Let me tell you something about myself. I am a straight shooter."
"I am not a politician. I'm an American businessman and entrepreneur that have built two businesses, and I try to play it straight with people."
"I know that there was a public disclosure mechanism in my financial forms."
"Here is what I know. When you're running a successful company or an organization, you can take this human equation to the bank: underconfidence plus insecurity always equals paranoia and backstabbing."

I understand we have to leak things to reporters to help shape policy or try to balloon things or do tests on ideas or people for different jobs.
