All the regime (both parties, elite ruling class) has to do is say, “X is true because of reasons, A, B, and C,” and then get people, “experts,” to go on the MSM and repeat the statement and reasons in their own words, over and over.

It doesn’t have to be logical, it doesn’t have to be supported by facts, it doesn’t even need to be consistent with what they were saying last week.

It works. Many people will believe it. And even if it’s only a few who believe it, the argument has the appearance of truth, and the official codified stamp of truth, which is much more important than public opinion anyway.

Kakistocracy
A kakistocracy is a system of government that is run by the worst, least qualified, and/or most unscrupulous citizens.

It is a FACT that police departments in numerous blue cities saw deep budget cuts. It is a FACT that prominent congressional Democrats supported that effort and encouraged more of it. It is a FACT that "defund the police" - even "abolish the police" - was and is a constant refrain at leftist demonstrations for more than a year.

If Republicans voted against a massive pork-filled bill with some police funding buried in it, that is irrelevant to what the Dems actually did in their own cities. People in Florida and Texas shouldn't have to pay for police departments in New York and Seattle when local politicians in those cities won't even fund them.

TRANSLATION: “Anybody who opposes a 100% tax rate wants to defund the police.”

Pink Psaki has been coached to avoid her early “deer in the headlights” issues and just employ snark and lying. She has grown into the job. Like Jon Lovitz’s old “liar” routine on SNL: “Uh, we didn’t defund the police . . . it was, uh, the Republicans! Yeah, that’s the ticket!”

To your question...why is funding the local police a federal government purview?

Same question...why don’t they fund dog-catchers, Little League Baseball across the nation, honky-tonks, and all 3rd-grade school teachers?

Once you open up this mess, we all contribute into a pot to help poor blue-states, which failed to keep businesses open and keep revenue taxes at a level to cover simple things like local police.

This means Biden is throwing the ‘defund the police’ movement under the bus. Good.

There is no way that anybody believes that Republicans defunded the police when they have been fighting against the idea. Psaki is looking like an idiot for trying to put this out there.

Kopracracy. Easier to say than kakistocracy pretty much the same meaning.

A system of government that is run by the worst, least qualified, and/or most unscrupulous citizens.

Yep, just as so many last year believed PDJT caused the Chicom flu, lied all the time, was in collusion w/the Russians, was racist, . . .

The media monkeys have over a year to the elections to endlessly repeat that the GOP want to defund police. It will eventually stick.

Pravda comrade, pravda.

No, it won’t. Goebbels was wrong. An audacious lie will not gain traction no matter how loudly and brazenly you repeat it, unless it has a kernel of truth in it. This is just claptrap and sophistry, and it’s too complicated to be made into a soundbite.
