Upright: “People ask me questions about present situations in life, and I say, ‘I don’t know, I’m just an actor.’ I don’t have any opinions. Actors are pretty stupid.

Friendly fire I: “He hurt me, there’s no doubt about it, and I hope he doesn’t do it again to whoever gets the nomination. Once is enough.” —Hillary Clinton blaming Bernie Sanders for her 2016 loss
Friendly fire II: “I’m sorry that Hillary Clinton is rerunning 2016.” —Sen. Bernie Sanders
