There is no excuse, nor should there be any tolerance, for anyone who thinks or expresses any kind of anti-Semitic remark. I want to apologise specifically to everyone in the Jewish community for the vitriolic and harmful words that I said to a law enforcement officer the night I was arrested.

Why do you have to adhere to prescribed formulas that they have and people argue over them and theyโre all in a box. And you watch Fox claw CNN, and CNN claw Fox. Sometimes I catch a piece of the news and it seems insanity to me. I quietly support candidates. Iโm not out there banging a drum for candidates. But I have supported a candidate and itโs a whole other world.
