Trump threatened to deploy more troops to U.S. cities this week — and not just the National Guard — as part of what he describes as his national crackdown on crime.
Political data points to a clear opportunity for Trump and the Republicans.
Though FBI data show that violent crime decreased by 4.5 percent last year, a new Gallup poll released Thursday shows almost half of Americans — 49 percent — feel that crime has risen from last year — while about a third — or 33 percent — feel crime has gone down.
The Gallup poll also reveals some political risks for Trump. More Americans oppose using federal troops to combat domestic crime than support the move — but the divide is largely along political lines, as Republicans overwhelmingly support the use of troops while Democrats are opposed.
Even though Republicans CUT my SNAP Benefits and RAISED me Health Insurance Premiums and are PROTECTING Jeffrey Epstein while Pardoning SEX CRIMINALS I STILL am going to Vote for them because NONE of that Compares to the Love I feel when UNIDENTIFIED ARMED MEN KIDNAP CHILDREN AND TAKE THEM TO UNDISCLOSED LOCATIONS AWAY FROM ANY PRYING EYES!
THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER.
