Published | Video Starts at 17:46

And throughout my career as a Navy SEAL and as a small businessman, I've been known to bring people together from very diverse backgrounds. And how you bring people together, first and foremost is you simply don't lie to them. Now, Ron, you got on a phone call with all of our 18 sheriffs and you said that you had their back, that you would not remove qualified immunity from them because that is a left wing end around for defunding the police. That's factual. So you got on the horn, you said that you had their backs and you did not. (17:46–18:00)
