I`m also criticized because I`ve made the comment that on January 6th I never felt threatened, because I didn`t. And mainly because I knew that even though those thousands of people, there were marching the Capitol, were trying to pressure people like me to vote the way they want me to vote, I knew those are people that love this country, that truly respect law enforcement, would never do anything to break a law, and so I wasn`t concern.
