In a rare display of frustration, Gov. Charlie Baker took exception to questions about former Gov. Mitt Romney's speech attacking presidential candidate Donald Trump.

Before a pack of reporters asking questions about Romney's speech, Baker said he hadn't seen it.

"I actually have a day job," Baker said. "I spend most of my time doing it."

"I'm not interested in talking about this," Baker continued. "You guys want to talk to me about my day job, that's fine. But I'm not going to talk about this stuff. I've already made my opinion about Donald Trump quite clear."

Pressed further, Baker relented somewhat, and addressed the broader campaign:

Most of the commentary you've heard throughout the political campaign has been about how important it is that Washington gets stuff done and gets its act together. And that's a point of view and a perspective that's shared by many Americans including me.

I'm as frustrated and disappointed in Washington as anybody," and I think the fact that we've managed to chart a different course here in terms of both our political dialogue and our behavior and our ability to work together is a testament to the public leadership we have here in the commonwealth. And it stands in many ways in stark contrast to what's going on in DC.

Pressed yet again about Romney and Trump, Baker departed the press scrum with a final unsatisfying answer: "I'll see you guys later."
