When I got back here this time last year, I don't say this to be hyperbolic, but in many ways, I no longer recognize our country. If you see what's going down at the border where 240,000 people are crossing [the border] illegally now, this is unacceptable. You're seeing the fentanyl crisis that's plaguing our communities in the suburbs and the inner cities. It's unacceptable. Hamada is endorsed by former President Donald Trump. (02:18–02:24)
