LOL, okay, defund the police didn't happen. The problem is there's a lot of folks out there who heard the same and who voted against Democratic congressional candidates because of it. All google give me now is Democrats running away from the slogan of defunding the police.
The "Defund the Police" movement has been happening since the 60s. If you cared you could find out what it's about. If you read AOCs response to the issue you would see that it's an elegant solution which could work anywhere. In fact it is already working in practically every affluent white community.
But what you have been saying from the start(without any proof) is that it was a slogan taken up by Democrats. Now that you've finally Googled it you can see that every Democrat stepped away from it.
I've been trying to tell you this for days.
It's a BLM slogan, it comes with a petition and a list of demands. Sensible demands for equal treatment by law enforcement. The slogan and the protests worked. There is currently some bipartisan discussion of police reforms taking place in congress.
Is this slogan your latest attempt to explain the 2020 election? Have you got any proof that "there's a lot of folks out there who heard the same and who voted against Democratic congressional candidates because of it."
Or are you making that up too? Did the exit polls specifically ask voters about why they voted against democrats? Did they say it was because of the defund the police slogan?
People hated Trump, even republicans and right leaning independents.
That's why they voted against him but for other republicans. The election was a moratorium on Donald Trump, not offbeat political slogans that offended the uneducated masses.
