00:24How could he stop it?

00:26What was he supposed to go out there and do?

00:29I think the mayor should have taken the blame more than the governor, and that's just my

00:39First of all, with Mal being in office, and let me say that she was always hands-on.

00:56I do not give her credit, and they say that she didn't do a lot about the George Floyd

01:03bill and the act and everything, but I know that not to be true, you understand?

01:14Because I was talking with them, not on a day-to-day basis, but maybe every month or

01:51her 100%, and so I feel like any decision that she makes is the right decision.

01:58So if she chose him, or however that goes, then I stand behind her.
