‘Pawn Stars’ Rick Harrison Praises Trump’s Border Crackdown After Son’s Fentanyl Death
Rick Harrison of the reality show Pawn Stars has praised the Trump administration for cracking down on the border following his son’s death from a fentanyl overdose last year.
As Breitbart News reported last year, Rick Harrison’s son, Adam, died at the age of 39 due to a fentanyl overdose, putting America’s fentanyl crisis right on the reality star’s doorstep.
“The fentanyl crisis in this country must be taken more seriously. It seems it is just flowing over the borders and nothing is being done about it. We must do better,” Harrison said at the time…
“Closing the border was absolutely amazing,” Harrison told Fox News. “That’s where … that’s where it’s all coming from.”
“I want anyone selling fentanyl to go to jail for the rest of their life,” Harrison added. “They’re selling poison. They’re killing people. I think it’s every 11 minutes someone dies from fentanyl in this country.”
Back in September, Rick Harrison spoke at a Trump rally in Las Vegas. Listen below as he tells a story about how much trouble he had getting to a similar Trump event in 2018 and how President Trump ended up calling him to apologize. This is a great story.
