I'm literally looking at our voter registration database on my other screen. Right now, we can't indulge these insane lies any longer. As a party. As a state. As a country.

There are good people working here in Maricopa County, and I was tired of them being defamed, maricopa County's Maricopa County. That's my office. That's my friends.

This has been a very rude awakening into what politics has become. And if I'm not part of it four years from now, so be it. I can do other things that'll make me happy, what prompted me now ? I am tired of my people -- who are good people, who are my friends -- being defamed. It's just not right.
