‘This is not normal’: Swalwell calls out ‘soft on violent-crime prosecutors’ in tweet

(KRON) — Bay Area Rep. Eric Swalwell

(D-Livermore) took a swipe on prosecutors who are soft on violent crime on X, formerly Twitter, Thursday. The Democratic representative was retweeting a story about a 2-year-old boy who was kidnapped when the car he was in was carjacked.

“My wife and I play these scenarios over in our head all the time,” Swalwell tweeted. “We’ve practiced going out through the back seat to get our kids out of our car if we are carjacked.”

Sounds like some drills never stop, just get updated.

Most drilling does stop. Case in point - Fang Fang had to flee back to China, so the drilling stopped.

With the context of other Swallwell scenarios, this comment is interesting: “My wife and I play these scenarios over in our head all the time,”

You know Eric I like to have a plan for all situations also, but practicing going out through the back seat to get our kids out of our car if we are carjacked is not one I would worry about because there is a simpler plan……. It just includes the G word!

What a jackass. A career of supporting these policies and when the election comes up, “WE GOTTA DO SOMETHING SO VOTE FOR ME!”

And of course, the idiot democrats who complain about democrat policies will vote for the democrat who promises to fix the problems cause by democrats.

Democrats would love to do something about carjacking, but Congressional Republicans refuse to cut a deal!

...or at least that’s what I’m led to believe.

Is Swallwell recovering from a stroke like Fetterman, their brains got rewired, and now they have some common sense????

Nope. It's an election year. Democrats have to pretend they are for law enforcement and borders.

Even if it (partially) worked, there’s a good chance they’d be shot.

Eventually you’ll get the Fang of it...

Everything he has done in his life has brought this on him and us.
He is just too stupid to realize it!

That his wife hasn’t thrown him out is a head scratcher.

“there’s a good chance they’d be shot.”

Exactly. Try climbing into the backseat with a guy throwing the driver’s door open and shoving a gun in your face screaming “Get out.” You’re going to climb into the backseat? BANG BANG, you’re dead.

He and his wife are a lot more stupid than I thought they were.

Yep - all he talks about is how he is practicing with his wife on how to surrender, and “somebody should do something” about all this.

Where do we find such heroes?
