I was waiting on someone to put all those things together in 1 article, its true but I don't expect the TDS inflicted to even read it much less agree with it. As much as I despised Bush and Obama I NEVER came unhinged like so many have with Trump.

Quite a refreshing, common-sense article, given the persistent diatribe of the lame stream media!

Polls show an overwhelming majority of Americans don't want to defund police. They want law and order. They support police. Even 80 percent of black voters overwhelmingly disagree with defunding police.

Does anyone with a brain or common sense think this is a good sign for Joe Biden or Democrats? Do you think all these Americans who support the police, want more law and order, and want more police funding are leaning to "law and order Trump" or "defund the police Joe Biden"?

Polls show 83 percent of Americans support President Trump and Housing and Urban Development Secretary Dr. Ben Carson's ending of former President Obama's program designed to fill the suburbs with high-density low-income housing, bringing crime and drugs to the neighborhoods of suburban moms and dads.

Does anyone with a brain or common sense think this is a good sign for Biden or Democrats? Do you think these millions of suburban American homeowners who don't want to see their home value destroyed or their neighborhood turned into war zones like Chicago, Detroit or Baltimore are going to vote enthusiastically for Joe Biden?


And on and on, point after point.

The debates (if they occur) will seal off any doubt.

Biden does not support defunding the police though. That is a lie made up by Trump.

The entire left with their support for BLM endorses this. What are you smoking?

Joe Biden said in an interview Wednesday that some funding should “absolutely” be redirected from police, amid calls from some in his party to “defund the police” in the wake of the protests across the country. Biden’s campaign has said he does not support defunding the police. But in a Now This interview with activist Ady Barkan, the presumptive Democratic nominee said that police forces don’t need surplus military equipment, saying this is what leads them to “become the enemy” in a community.
“But do we agree that we can redirect some of the [police] funding?” Barkan asked Biden.
“Yes, absolutely,” said the former vice president.

Twist it however you want "reallocating" "redirecting" is the same as defunding them.

According to the Brookings Institute, a liberal think-tank, “‘Defund the police’ means reallocating or redirecting funding away from the police department to other government agencies funded by the local municipality. That’s it. It’s that simple. Defund does not mean abolish policing.”

Then you should be OK with a president Biden too. At least you have that.

Oh Biden I could deal with for 4 years IF he didn't have the most leftist member of the senate as his running mate just waiting to become President. That right there is the biggest problem. Especially if it was Biden as president and the GOP had the senate. Pft go ahead he won't get much done but with Kamala as his VP no way.
