(11,098 posts)1. Talking point should be "why do republicans want to defund the police?"
We will never defund the police, and will continue to fund them against Republican wishes.
Repugs only like police - when they think it can be used as their personal gestapo against anyone they don't like.
Because when it comes to breaking the law, you'll find few people more giddy about the idea than these far-right MAGA/Q types.
"It's different. This is our country!"
