I guess that's just unprofessional behavior.
And I'm not sure exactly how we get to the bottom of that because these US attorneys pretty much are unfettered.
And if they're big game hunting, they know they can at the end of the day get a guilty plea, you know, because they've charged somebody like me or my son
with potentially four decades in prison.
Well, Mark, my friends stood by me.
When I was looking at a potential four-decade prison sentence, I had 137 people, which is unheard of.
Many, many members of Congress write letters saying, we know Chris Collins.
We know he's a thoughtful person with, you know, family man, with integrity.
We ask that he be treated in that manner as the criminal justice system issues a sentence.
People that knew me, and they all knew I never sold stock, understood, you know, my standing behind my, beside my son.
So your friends and your family will stand with you, in my case, after many, many, many decades of public service and success in the private sector.
So I guess my reputation, even though it was trashed with a guilty plea that made me a convicted felon, thank God my friends did stand with me during those very, very dark days.
That doesn't happen with a lot of folks.
Mark, I have a lot of support, and what I have is a resume of success and accomplishments in both the private sector as an entrepreneur that's created thousands of jobs with 22 separate companies, and also as a successful politician, the county executive of Erie County, New York, based in Buffalo when it was bankrupt when I was elected, and then
elected and reelected to four terms in Congress, 2012, 14, 16, and 18.
So my resume of success and accomplishments dwarfs all of the others who are saying, here's what I think I may do if you elect me.
Well, I've got a resume of accomplishments.
I passed the Firefighter Cancer Registry Act that was signed into law.
And many others, six total bills that I sponsored were signed into law, which is a bit unusual.
I served on the Energy and Commerce Committee.
