White House aides and campaign officials sought to tie Democrats to the mantra of "defund the police," which has gained steam on social media and at some protests after George Floyd's death May 25.


Talk about handing Trump a bludgeon!

Dumb slogan!

Trump: There won'''t be any defunding of police
 
Trump has zero control over budgets of states or cities, again, Trump has zero power to stop a municipality from reorganizing their police departments.
 
Oh boy Trump is going to love this! The new democratic slogan: Defund the police!
The democrats will soon be running away from this stupid plan. But not before Trump pummels them with it.

Don't understand this do you? :confused:

Well, in that Democrats have called for it, it’s not like those aides and officials just made it up. Lol.

They’ve called for “defunding” not “reorganizing.”

"dismantle"

"Do you understand that the word, dismantle, or police-free also makes some people nervous, for instance?" Camerota asked. "What if in the middle of [the] night, my home is broken into? Who do I call?"

"I mean, I hear that loud and clear from a lot of my neighbors," Bender said. "And I know -- and myself, too, and I know that that comes from a place of privilege. Because for those of us for whom the system is working, I think we need to step back and imagine what it would feel like to already live in that reality where calling the police may mean more harm is done."

This is the brain trust of the Democratic party,

Former new York police Commissioner Bernard Kerik said that about 320 police officers were injured in clashes with protesters and 600 guards want to resign.
This happens when a society is afraid to support its defenders, when the state abandons them. Well, perhaps we should put officers on their knees more often and make them kiss the shoes of violators. Then they will realize exactly how important and prestigious their work is

That is not the issue that was originally announced, since it's announcement in Minneapolis it has been distorted but that was the original message. to defund the current police force and to rebuild a new one or reorganize...Which there is not a damn thing wrong if that is what they want to do.

I’ve come to the conclusion that the concept of “white privilege” is like a gateway drug. It’s seems harmless at first, like, “well, they’re not saying I’m racist” but the second someone accepts that, then the next thing is to let them know that they are, in fact, racist but it’s unintentional racism. Once you get someone to believe all that, next thing you know they’re accepting idiocy as abolishing the police.

"Defunding" is not "dismantling" as you imply.

I suggest you read up on the literature.

It's actually "defund & rebuild", which seems to be an analog of, "repeal & replace".

Though I suppose the "rebuild" part might get lost in the noise ...

I seriously don't know what they are saying with the "privilege" thing. Blacks don't call the cops if their house is being broken into? Or their neighbor is being beating or raped?

Given the things some lefties are supporting now, I’m not sure there’s even a basic understanding of right and wrong.
 
Would someone please tally up all the instances where villages, towns, unincorporated areas, cities and maybe even counties have reorganized, replaced, defunded or otherwise decertified a contract with police and other first responders?
You may be surprised to discover that it happens more often than you think.

Now, I grant that the reason is more often a fiscal one, but the mechanisms are mighty similar.

In the case of the City of Minneapolis, a lot of this centers around a decision by the City Council to exercise a sort of "nuclear option" a la Prince, to separate themselves from an abusive union relationship, because said union is attempting to exercise political control over police policy against the wishes of a succession of mayors and police chiefs. And it all springs from the war declared on those mayors and police chiefs, by one man, union president Bob Kroll, a man who is documented as a white supremacist.

You do seem to have the inability to understand what is being said and distorting it's true meaning to fit your political narrative..

I suggest you listen to the President of the Minneapolis City Council



Nine members of the Minneapolis City Council said on Sunday they intend to defund and dismantle the city's police department in the wake of George Floyd's killing -- but the city's mayor says he rejects that plan.

In an interview with CNN, Council President Lisa Bender announced the plan. "We committed to dismantling policing as we know it in the city of Minneapolis and to rebuild with our community a new model of public safety that actually keeps our community safe," she said.

Oh, I know it’s been walked back some since it was first suggested, but it’s no my job to try to makes sense out of Dem thinking.
 
Defund the secret service.

We need to hear specifically what is intended to "replace" sending a police officer in response to a home invasion, rape or robbery in progress call would then be. Someone "official" suggested that expecting a (helpful?) police response to that call "comes from a place of privilege".

Don't you like this? Finally, the 2nd Amendment will make some sense. No cops? Good. You got a gun, don't you? Haven't the pro-gun lobbyists always said the cops can't get there quick enough?
