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 …

Obama's decision to ramp up enforcement of bad policing and putting in place more consent decrees and investigations - which detailed horrific police violations in major cities - was having a huge, positive effect on countless black people. But Trump/Sessions stopped it.

Trump/Sessions were able to stop it because those actions were not codified by federal legislation. My comparison was limited to federal legislation. I realize Trump is very bad on criminal justice issues in other areas. Which heightens the irony of the legislative record.

Biden had waaaay more influence over Criminal Justice policy in the 80s and 90s as the chair of Senate Judiciary during a period of "tough-on-crime" policy innovation.

More ignorance. This tells me you don't much know about the Obama record on criminal justice reform and why he wasn't able to do even more than he accomplished.
