Trump is going to attack, "Defund the police". He is going to call the democrats weak on crime.

Trump has a big problem that cannot be fixed. He always attacks and tries to divide the people. The problem now is, the American people are on to him. His same old bullshit routine will no longer work. He doesn't know that yet.

Biden has already come out and said he is against defunding the police. Trump is going to pretend, tell the police he is their savior, he will defend them from the evil Democrats. Many cops will not believe it, they will understand what he is doing. The people will see right through it.

Trump doesn't understand, his game, his routine has gotten old. The American people are no longer fooled by his vaudevillian act. The people now know who Trump is, a complete failure, a racist, a liar, a fool and there is not a dam thing Trump can do about it.

With outlets like NPR refusing to stand up and say anything and CNN and MSNBC doing their usual back door carping about Democrats. Thus the Republican meme will once more become 'normalized.' Democratic ideas will be ignored or be cast in a bad light.

I feel like I have seen this movie before.

Why must we take any jerky idea from the repukes and run with it?

The word defund, like the word liberal, can only be used against us with our permission.

Let's help frame what the word means instead of running in fear from it, and helping repukes in the process.

Defund means redistribution of the funds currently set aside for the Police.

Defund means reducing funds, not elimination.

Defund means reallocation.

Defund means reform.

Just some ideas...
