Of course, but Trump hate clouds reality, and many have to learn the hard way, and only when it affects them first hand are they able to understand.

Can you provide statistics that shows that crime was higher under Obama (the last Democrat) vs. Trump? Can you also show how much Trump has spent vs. previous president?

Otherwise this is just talking points.

Do you think defunding the police isn’t going to cause more crime? Btw, I’ve been in huge favor of the idea since I first heard it being proposed.

did i insinuate things were worse under Obama? no.
i was asking erie a question in response to his post about the possible Biden administration, and used TWO typical issues as example topics.

Many rural municipalities completely defunded their police departments in Pennsylvania. There hasn't been a surge in rural crime.

“Rural” being the key word..., but I do look forward to seeing how it works out in urban areas.

The president has very little to do with crime. Just look at what is happening to nyc. They no doubt miss Bloomberg and the real mastermind Giuliani. What a disaster as are most democratic cities. Wow!

How many big cities dont have Democratic mayors and councils? Jacksonville, Fort Worth, Miami, OKC, and I think maybe San Diego. Thats it.

Now if we compare cities run by Democrats vs. cities run by Republicans we can see that cities run by Democrats had a 29% rise in crime year over year. Cities run by Republicans had a 26% rise in crime year over year.

Specifically, if we compare the largest Democrat run cities to the Republican ones, Chicago had the highest violent crime rise but Fort Worth was a very close 2nd. Both a lot more so than NYC.

There isnt a correlation due to political party.

erieguy gives you daily purpose, it seems. i am the only person complaining about the national debt on this board, and have been for years.

i am old enough to remember a different America (not as wacked, drug-addled, and with such self-entitlement) where the debt was issue #1 or #2 each election. not that anyone ever did anything about it after they were elected except Bill clinton.
