Back in 2017, Sam spoke with Metro and told the publication that he thought the fact that Donald Trump had won the election the year prior was "mind boggling."

"I think Trump won because he didn't have someone running against him that was electable," he said at the time. "But he spoke to that vast whole out there that had been neglected forever." 

"You have to make a commitment, you can’t dance down the middle of the road. Well, s--t, if they’re not going to reach across the aisle and at last talk to each other, and work on the art of the compromise, then it’s pretty bleak," he added.

“If your vote didn’t matter, they wouldn’t try so hard to take it from you," he said.
