“This is another issue where I think you have to look at where we've come from. When you let tens of millions of illegal people into this country, you're going to have issues that take a long time to fix. And I think if you look at the way there has to be a federal, a local, and a state cooperation with immigration, that's what it takes to work. Which is why when I talk to all the sheriffs in our district that are endorsing us, they're handling immigration much better than other parts around the country because they have that cooperation.”
