She says, ‘I love our country.'”. She continued, “How do you love our country and support and normalize somebody who was a convicted felon who really wants to destroy the country, in my opinion? I don’t understand how you say you love your country at the same time as you normalize this convicted felon, which. I can say now every day.”. Article continues below advertisement.
