"Law and Order" is a losing strategy for Trump.

18. The George Floyd situation was like a jolt of "we tried to tell you"

White suburban America was stunned, regretful and apologetic. If it had ended right there it would have been a huge net positive.

But the push toward "Defund the Police" is exactly what was described above. It means white America is not being forgiven while asked to finally take meaningful steps. It means white America is being condemned as the culprit and the enabler. That indeed has great potential to backlash in terms of being pushed too far.

And it's not merely relegated to whites. I have already described in another thread how my 75 year old Cuban neighbor votes Democratic but is disgusted with "Defund the Police." In particular I don't think we are grasping at all the impact on Florida Hispanics especially the Cuban community. That is a law and order crowd all the way. Donna Shalala is clearly shook up about it. She sent an email yesterday conceding her House opponent is within striking range. That is in a district that went 20 points for Hillary in 2016.
