Now I don't know if this leak out of the Justice Department or wherever it came, was a coincidence or not, but I'll let anybody else try to connect the dots.
Don't think about me. Don't turn your fire against me. Focus on the Democrats because remember, they're trying to take us down here.
This is one of the leaks that come out to try to, you know, intimidate people. And we're just not going to be intimidated on it.
But there's ways to do it, and my opinion is that they took the wrong path.
