So we're gonna keep fighting, and I know Lincoln comes off crazy sometimes, but his heart is really in the right place and he's really fighting for people who typically don't have a voice in a seat at the table, and so I just want to make sure we highlight that because his passion is the same as mine.

Everybody knows I fight hard for our kids, and so I actually appreciate in this moment to have someone else fighting just as hard as I am because that's what it's really about, making sure that everybody's voices is being heard and so I appreciate your passion and your commitment to this and honestly it's important so that when we go to the state, don't worry, he gonna give them the same smoke.
