Sure, he's not always the most liberal person, but he's pretty damn legit - he's crass, blunt, and honest, but he supports firefighters and first responders, he's been married for close to 30 years (yeah, I do think that's a Good Thing), and he's not actually an asshole...
...but he thinks some people are assholes.

Anybody who's willing to say Trump is an asshole on global TV is fine by me regardless of plagiarism.
