“‘I do believe that I'm the response to the millennial generation, the first wave of it, because, overwhelmingly [that] generation is exceedingly liberal,‘ he said, adding, ‘I look forward to being able to lead a new generation of patriots coming up.’”

‘I'm really not looking to work with any caucus or anything,‘ he said. ’I don't want to be loyal to some caucus chair. I want to be loyal to the people of west North Carolina alone.’”
