According to a new poll, only 16% of Americans support defunding the police department while an astonishing 65% of Americans completely oppose defunding the police force.

The poll comes after Democrats have recently pushed to defund police departments across the country after George Floyd, a black man, was murdered by a police officer in Minneapolis

Lol I was going to post the same thing - O’Biden was only 1% off his estimate of not good Americans. Maybe he wasn’t including his own family.

I'd bet if this survey had been conducted anytime pre-bammy we would see support for the police around the +90 percentile range.

He really did a lot to undermine race relations in this country.

I don’t want to sound like an optimist, but the 65 percent may be an undercount, for the simple reason that normal, conservative folks are ever more reluctant to cooperate with pollsters.

“Anything under 98% should be astonishing, but these are not normal times.”

Unfortunately, there are Sharia Law types who will be only too happy to offer their services. And there are folks ignorant (lack of knowledge, folks) and leftists who have no clue as to what would be happening, then.

The 16%. Wonder if that could be the folks Biden thinks are not very good?

Naw. He’s most likely referring to the normal American citizens. In which case, let us hope he has severely underestimated us, come this November.

The gay internet is exploding over #LindseyGraham today.
An Army of gay escorts are claiming, Lindsay has used their services for years and are trying to figure out how to get around the NDA he has them all sign.
It is rumored that DC male escorts now Senator Graham as “Lady G”

Help me here. So if NYC and the rest of the super blue municipalities defund the police and replace them with social workers, why do they need no bail laws when there is no one in the courtroom to set no bail for? In cases of a 311 call for rape in progress, is a therapist dispatched to the scene to help predator and victim work out their “relationship issues”? Will criminal defense attorneys have to learn how to code to stay off the unemployment line? Will the next Black Lives Matter placards protesting out of control white racist therapists read “Hands up, don’t analyze”?

Polls tend to over sample democrats. It’s probably a lot lower than that.

I hope they do it and suffer the consequences. Liberalism had sold out to the mob and I prefer they go off the deep end to insure Trump’s re election and give us the House back.

They must have polled the prison system ... I would have guessed 5% tops.

Ds just want to hide their incompetence in their failure to use oversight, where wanted. They had control over most of these cities for 50+ years. The Ds will fail when it comes to any Public Services agency replacement as well. TOTAL DEFLECTION of D blame.

Don’t forget the eunuchs we elected into government. Those bastards sit on their hands and give out hours of lip service.

I don’t see anyone doing a damn thing to counteract the mobs.
