As much as people is so against it, at this point I feel like I'm not against it, even though it do scare me.")

Why don’t you post how a conservative Christian trump supporter post my [address] and encourage people to loot my home .
Within just a few hours, Kolk had issued an apology to Cardi, promising to rectify the story on air."I apologize to @iamcardib if I took her words out of context," he tweeted."I respect her for using her platform to connect with people during these difficult times and it was wrong of me to not let her full voice be heard. I will make sure that is corrected during my next segment.
