## Caption

People on social media often ask me why I don’t run for political office.

The reality is that going into public service in our current environment scares the daylights out of me.

I have so much appreciation and respect for those who make that sacrifice. But we’re now in a climate where everybody fights over every decision to tear our leaders down, no matter how capable they may be.
