    Presidential candidate Trump claims to be tough on crime. But is that really true? Record incarceration rates, increased violence, increased crime statistics. President Biden is the toughest president on crime yet. Debt forgiveness, decriminalisation of drugs, police reforms, rehabilitative incarceration, mental health subsidies, affordable healthcare, and free housing make Biden America’s biggest enemy of crime. President Biden: say no to crime.

    Whitehouse should just run this ad and actually implement these policies. Start redefining what it means to be tough on crime. It’s not hard, it just takes actually disagreeing with reactionaries on premises. Unfortunately, Biden is trying his damndest to lose the election this year.

      it should be easy to paint politicians as pro crime when they oppose gun control, oppose limits on ammunition purchases, support arming criminals, psychologically disturbed, violent abusers, etc.
