I guess since Tent City is now national policy, he thinks he stands a chance?
Yep, former sheriff Joe Arpaio, at age 8792, wants to run for Sheriff again. He's got - currently! - four opponents in the primary. And the democrat who kicked him out of office in '16 is running again.
He was called Dime-Bag Joe when he was in the DEA, a time that he brags about, because he went around making lots of small busts, while the others in his unit were conducting deep investigations wrapping up entire networks. He was not well-respected. But in doing so, his record showed a lot of arrests.

EDIT:Arpaio is 87. He'll be 88 if elected, and 92 at the end of his 4-year term. I don't know where I got the number that he's currently 92.
