    He could have said we need to fund the police with police reform but he went 100% back the blue.

    "secure the border" is just as dumb as "defund the police". The border's been secure for 30 yrs. All Hispanics hear is "no comprehensive immigration reform and more carceral punishment for crossers."

    And his team is doing a piss poor job of communicating it. I warned them (lol) that not passing legislation (voter reform, police reform), at least token legislation (weed), or even putting up a front of fighting for such legislation was going to cost them. Now you've got a very real threat of a black spoiler candidate.

    I think far more people,especially blacks, know about The SOTU fund the police.

    Dems' fatal mistake is thinking the "swing voter" is a thing in 2023. This "moderate bipartisan" bullshit explains his numbers, not some hot take slogan that trended for a NY minute. Haven't heard fuck all from the GQP now that they want to defund the feds.

    These views extend across party, ideology, age and region, making a concept like defunding the police totally out of tune with most voters who oppose it by a 3-to-1 margin.

    Whatever you wanna call it, there are still voters who can move elections.
