      This is ignorant. Trump signed one decent bill, then under-funded it by 80 percent. He also reversed Obama reform policies on equitable sharing, police militarization, DOJ review of local police agencies, predatory municipal courts, I could go on.https://twitter.com/mtracey/status/1134460071084265477 …

      The 1994 crime bill caused lots of problems, but it's telling that Dem candidates are focusing on a 25 year old bill to attack Biden, rather than the criminal justice record of the Obama/Biden administration. Trump enacted more sweeping criminal justice reform than Obama ever did

      Ignorant how? Trump signed into law the FIRST STEP Act, described by the Justice Action Network as "the most meaningful federal criminal justice reform bill our country has seen in decades." Are you arguing that Obama signed into law a bill that was more meaningful?

      I'm not arguing that Trump is overall "good" on criminal justice, I'm observing that he signed into law a bill that was more sweepingly reformative than any bill Obama signed.

          “I’m not arguing about anything meaningful, I’m arguing that if you take this thing out of context then ...” Wait, what are you arguing exactly?

          You realize that the President can set policy through executive action, yes?

          right, sure, and then, according to the tweet, he underfunded it by 80%. and then reversed a whole bunch of other policies.

          No one seems to want to solve anything...just point the finger. "You're either with us or against us" is the only way forward...ha! Nevermind the majority that would vote for an eggplant if it called out both sides & focused on solving real issues facing everyday Americans.
