Stay moderate Joe don't let this blatant attempt to help Trump get traction.
In the end, Trump's ONLY hope is to rile up the lefty radicals and have them get traction on their politically suicidal ideas.
Trumps reelection campaign doubled down on that assertion on Monday, with Communications Director Tim Murtaugh telling reporters, Joe Biden's campaign has managed only a feeble no comment on the story, and asserting silence is agreement. By his silence, Joe Biden is endorsing defunding the police.

Again, ONLY the elitists who live in the suburbs, not black people who live in the real world want to defund police.
This is a suicidal political monster and Trump knows it and is shamelessly playing on this.
It is POLITICAL SUICIDE for Dems.
It's going to be difficult because black politicians might melt to peer dogma pressure and support this ridiculous idea.
All Trump needs is a few Midwest states and he can win

(251 posts)I rarely make predictions but this one is easy.
Trumps deep state followers will get a disgruntled lefty to run against Biden.
It's his only chance and he will try to do it. Another Jill Stein or Ralph Nader.

Trump is a dark force the country has never seen
