Arizona Gov. Jan Brewer sat down with the New York Times Magazine to discuss policy and the infamous finger wag she gave President Barack Obama.
In the interview, Brewer blamed Obama for the incident on the tarmac.
He’s the one that chose to make a brief encounter about something petty that showed his thin skin. I agree it was unfortunate, but it happened, and I moved on.
When it came to discussing oft-criticized Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio, Brewer said he was successful, but wouldn’t comment on the reporter stating that it appeared Latinos were being pulled over more than others.
You’d have to talk to Sheriff Joe Arpaio about that. That’s not in the realm of my responsibility.
Brewer also commented on Arizona’s concealed weapons law and her son who was institutionalized.
