That was great!

Hope those facts penetrate the brains of dumbasses who think krasnov is protecting them from crime in their red states.

“Mississippi leads the nation as the #1 murder state in America…
Perhaps the President could deploy the National Guard in every corner of the state of Mississippi.”

“If the President is sincere about the issue of crime and violence, there’s no question in my mind that he’ll likely be sending troops into Louisiana and Mississippi to address the unconscionable wave of violence that continues to plague those states.”

We need more Gavin Newsom’s, he demonstrates how to fight back.
