Biden and Democrats Are Failing to Keep Americans Safe
Town Hall ^ | 8 July 2021 | Ronna McDaniel

Posted on 07/08/2021 3:04:43 PM PDT by Rummyfan

Joe Biden is failing to fulfill his most sacred obligation as President: keeping the American people safe. The Democrat Party’s efforts to undermine our brave law enforcement officers have led directly to a stunning surge in violent crime nationwide. The left’s defund the police rhetoric and policies have become so politically untenable that some Democrats are now claiming to support increased funding for police. Americans see right through that political spin. Democrats have already done too much damage to law and order to now credibly state their support for police. They have put Americans’ safety at risk.

Thanks to powerful voices on the left, defunding the police has become a mainstream Democrat talking point -- even as voters staunchly oppose the policy by wide margins. Influential socialist Democrat Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez has repeatedly voiced her support for defunding the police, as has her far-left squad-mate Ilhan Omar. It bears mentioning that both Congresswomen spend thousands of dollars on personal security, a luxury which most Americans don’t have. Omar went so far as to call for the total dismantling of her hometown Minneapolis’s police department, claiming “you can’t really reform a department that is rotten to the root.” Minneapolis did cut its police budget. The result? The city is on pace for a near-record number of homicides this year.

What happened in Minneapolis is not an isolated incident. Several other Democrat-led cities across the nation have defunded their police departments, and those cities have seen subsequent rises in crime. On average, homicide rates in large cities rose more than 30 percent last year, in addition to another 24 percent at the beginning of this year. Shootings are also on the rise, with spikes of 86 percent in New York City and 51 percent in New Orleans just this year.

Why the hell should Biden or the Democrats want to keep American’s safe? I mean what is in it for them? They are there for the power, ego trip and bribes. How does keeping us safe help that?

They do NOT want to keep anyone safe. Democrats are for pitting class against class. Race against Race. Employer against employee, law abiding citizen against criminal. Everything that they do reinforces this. Keeping Americans Safe? It is not even on their radar.

They’re failing at everything except fleecing America. Watch the infrastructure money disappear! Think Solyndra.

But he is succeeding in destroying America, so that would suggest that he intends to make the world dangerous for us first, and then his lemmings. He is following the steps of his mentor - Josef Stalin.

And what is Ronna ROMNEY McDaniel doing about it, other than getting money to give to the Murkowskis and Collins and Romney’s?

And they have failed to protect our borders and sovereignty.

They should be tried before being shot.

“failing to keep Americans safe” is the equivalent of a euphemism for what he’s really doing which is GREATLY INCREASING the possibility of genocide right here in the Land of the Free!
