Actually, Tucker said Obama did try to do something. But it was an unpopular message with the self elected Black leaders. So he went back to blaming the Police & Whitey.

The Democrats have no interest in addressing these issues. If any problem gets solved or improved, they won’t be able to demagogue it for election purposes.

TRUMP has failed to UNITE the country or Congress.
He has never had a approval rating over 50%.
He managed to get half of Congress to IMPEACH him.
118,000 Americans are dead because of his terrible response to COVID-19.
40 Million are Unemployed and we are in a Recession.
We have Riots in major cities & mass protests.
And you people think he has a chance at Re-Election !



As for Ms. Lindsey she needs to remover her head from Trump's rear end.

A bad cop should be put under a microscope when there is a problem and a 3 strikes and you are out plan should be implemented but the measures the Dems are suggesting and the Reps are going along with are extreme.



Will they really do any good or will we see the good cops leave the force out of frustration when their hands are tied.

Will we see the young people that would have gone into Policing for the right reasons now move on to something else to avoid the increasing dangers of the job?

Will we see a rise in crime due to fewer cops on the beat?



This is not going to end well for our society as a whole.

For the Democrats, Black Lives Matter will only matter up till November. That’s how it’s always been.
