Interview

A federal indictment is serious and it should be taken serious. And let's be clear, when we think about a congressman or even a former president, no one should be above the law. What I believe is important is to allow the facts to continue to come forth through a process here and let's allow the Department of Justice to continue to do its work. And as more facts are made available to the public, I believe we'll get a better place to better understand what is taking place.

The facts are the fact, and I believe as we apply the facts to the rule of law and then as the American people are made aware of that, I believe that's going to be important in this process, and also equally important is due process and allowing Lady Justice to continue to be blind and let's see what comes based on the facts of the case.

Jim, we are still early in this process and as the process unfolds, I truly believe more facts will come out, more information will be made readily available for the American people. And as we gain insight to what exactly those facts are and how they are tied towards the rule of law, that's going to better inform voters potentially of what's taking place. I have confidence and faith in the American people.

North Carolina is always, especially in recent history, a very competitive state. What we are concerned with, especially with the families of East and North Carolina, the first district that I represent, are those who are able to deliver (ph).
I must admit I haven't agreed with the president 100 percent. But let's look at the core. I hear from families. They are concerned about jobs. They are concerned about a strong economy, our workforce and education. And when we look at this president on those issues, I'm reminded of a bipartisanships and infrastructure bill.
And the president, while he was here in Rocky Mountain, North Carolina, the last time the president was here in Rocky Mountain, North Carolina was LBJ in '64, and the president showed up, I can tell you being a part of the motorcade, and people were holding up the American flag and signs. They received this president very well. He went on to Fort Liberty and the troops there and their families embraced this president.

Candidates, at the end of the day, we all have an opportunity in this democratic process to come forward. But again, I point back towards what are those deliverables. Those things that people are concerned about, eastern North Carolinians, what they talk about at the dinner table, and I do believe that President Biden, even though, again, we haven't always agreed, he has delivered. As a matter of fact, while he was here --

I believe in the democratic process, and I believe the American people in the end will deliver for those who deliver for them.

Thanks, Jim.
