Top Democrat insists that migrant crime, carjackings and public safety threats 'don't matter to that many Americans'

A Democratic strategist outrageously claimed that public safety threats like migrant offenses and carjackings 'don't matter to that many Americans.'

Insha Rahman, vice president of advocacy and partnerships at the Vera Institute of Justice, made the jarring declaration while addressing the Democratic National Convention (DNC) crowd during its summer meeting on Monday.

The former public defender discussed Donald Trump's crime crackdown in Washington DC, calling his efforts a 'huge opportunity' for Democrats.

You want to talk about the crime issues voters care about. Where does Trump go? Migrant crimes, carjackings, the really lurid, awful stuff that is a crazy, crazy visual,' Rahman told the crowd.

'Don't take the bait.'

Thank you very much and God bless you.

Yeah, Insha we should be taking the bait of Taylor's and Kelce's "engagement", instead of fighting crime.

You're so smart.

Rahman sounds like it would be better if he were locked up.

It might help make America better.

I am really enjoying watching the Democrats self-destroy what little political influence they have left. If I tried, I don't think I could come up with a dumber statement.

Insha Rahman and more morons like him are the future of the Democrat Party. There is nothing Democratic about the Democrat Party.

So, the Willie Horton ads weren’t effective? Why the big stink?

Not only are such issues effective, they are especially effective to appeal to mainstream women.

If he’s a top democrat why has no one ever heard of him?

Many years ago my two favorite cites were San Francisco and DC. Museums in DC are the worlds best. San Francisco was breathtakingly beaustiul and the restaurants were superb.

I wish not to be robbed, assaulted, mugged, walk by human waste and open air drug markets or killed. I will no longer visit those once great cities.

“ There is nothing Democratic about the Democrat Party.”

I’ve been using that exact wording for a few years now.
