They is there are new sheriff in town.

We've taken to calling him that the share.

Because nobody messes -- -- We'll tell that to the real share of Joseph Joseph Arpaio he is mad as heck -- back he tweeted this quote.

President Obama keeps calling DP Biden -- -- and now drug is gonna get to know there's only one shared joke and that's me.

All Americans government's air doesn't like sharing his nickname it's -- few other opinions and the president's plan on reform of immigration shared joke the real -- -- -- welcome to this.

Why did mention that to the president when I -- them briefly couple years ago hopefully you know I was talking about.

Maybe didn't read a teleprompter but that's that's exciting to be compared with Joseph Biden -- Well I think Joseph Biden -- is exciting to be compare with the U I don't know that is not too -- for -- to go down in -- this thing like pat or Pat -- patented three.

Because it looks like at the poplar nickname.

That he but you know -- -- -- -- to twenty years.

Trying to do the job included illegal immigration.

Remember hundred days after Obama took office they went after me.

There's still after me I'm in federal court for alleged racial profiling and -- are going to give up they -- control.

My agency and its it's sad.

I'm trying to help the federal government.

To lock up all the of people coming into our -- United States thousands of them -- offices story.

And on the bad guys so I and I look forward zoo see what happens the White House in congress -- -- it for years.

You know if you want to do something.

Based the issue right but why now that we know why right now.

Yeah I read where you say you were actually pleased that the federal government's working on a bipartisan effort.

But you have some question marks up for instance tracking visas that person is -- realistic yeah along with some the other proposals.

Listen they can't even track guys.

-- into our current Q -- we've arrested people.

The sixteen times they come across they can mean and tracked them.

As far as make in the border's secure I was a regional director of Mexico City and South America taxes.

Arizona with the US drug enforcement it ever gonna secure -- border completely we've been fighting the drug problem that that border for how many years 5060.

Years so what does this a cop out.

Say that we've we will secure -- border first and never going to address the issue.

Come on -- not going to happen so I don't know.

There's a pathway to.

Citizenship that's what this is all of vol chip away little by little by little.

And I brilliant insulted the greatest country in the world when you say that we can't find people.

Did caught let us we have to import illegal aliens to call letters.

Given these president us and -- right.

You know I unite in this and that's a great topic and I wanted to you know that's maybe four different -- -- -- I'm really curious then.

What would be the ideal way of its addressing this problem of you were in charge.

If you were president Jones that have served -- how to handle.

Well I know what I would do -- the border to keep from from becoming an -- And that's critical to -- agree with that.

I would send the Border Patrol.

Or the the military across the border and help to -- in the government like I used to do and I was there we were operational.

-- try to stop the problem from even coming across the border it to the United States us away is secured border one way.

-- there is a problem with the eleven million if you want to -- to figure.

That -- I have mixed emotions on that but once again my compassion if there is any which there is.

Overrides that job that I have to do to enforce the laws so I don't know what to do these eleven million we've been doing okay still below have been -- come up.

And as before -- ago let's just say.

The reality is is that this is in the -- the fast track citizenship for those eleven million.

Certainly that would make your job easier but with a veto right thing to do.

No it's not the right thing -- on the tell you why everybody forgets it's a fairness issue.

We got people around the world waiting to come into our country legally.

Then if you cross -- -- you come here illegally.

You're rewarded that's not fair to let everybody come across -- Into our country and be rewarded by citizenship.

This -- -- this issue to regardless of all the other issues.

We're facing right -- -- Joseph Arpaio the real share -- thanks for your time tonight.

Thank you.
