The Democrat Sheriff of Charlotte NC, Gary McFadden, was just completely unable to answer:
a) What the 3 branches of government are.
b) Which branch he serves under.
This is genuinely painful to watch… completely shocking. pic.twitter.com/PRIAkvFxCw
Representative Chesser: What branch of government do you operate under?
Sheriff McFadden: Mecklenburg County.
Chesser: What branch of government do you operate under as sheriff?
McFadden: Constitution of the United States.
The elected Democrat sheriff of the county containing one of the largest cities in the southeast – the city where Iryna Zarutska was murdered – doesn’t know what a branch of government even is.
Chesser: I’m asking which branch you fall under.
McFadden: Mecklenburg County. I’m a duly sworn Mecklenburg County Sheriff, we answer to the people of Mecklenburg County.
Chesser: This is not where I was anticipating getting stuck. Um – Are you aware of how many branches of government there are?
McFadden: No.
Poor Chesser, he honestly thought he was going to have a semi-intelligent conversation with someone who comprehended the basics of fifth grade civics.
He failed to understand exactly what a DEI officer of the law meant.
Chesser: Okay … For the sake of debate, I will move on and say there are three branches of government. Legislative, Executive, Judicial. Of those three, which do you believe you fall under?
McFadden: I believe I fall under the last one … Judicial.
Chesser: You are incorrect, sir. You fall under the Executive.
