Liberals never, ever do that.

Republicans never ever Try something. Jim. Because they are afraid it will fail miserably like mass incarceration.

As of July 2021, the United States had the highest number of incarcerated individuals worldwide, with almost 2.1 million people in prison.

And Republicans are still yelling lock them up or blaming Democratic’s for a rise in crime even in states where no laws have been changed

Criminals and murders do not factor in penalties in their decisions they are no rational people to start with
"Republicans never ever Try something. Jim. "

Newt Gingrich didn't convince Bill Clinton to cut taxes and pay for it with welfare reform, resulting in the last federal surplus probably ever, and helping to usher in a decade of prosperity. Didn't happen, right?

George W Bush didn't spearhead his "Emergency Plan For Aids Relief Africa:, which liberal Stanford University says saved over one million lives in Africa. Bush did more for Africa, than any human being who has ever lived. And I'd bet everything that you have no idea it ever happened, because you don't like that he has an "R" after his name.

Go ahead and tell us Stanford is wrong. You know more. Didn't happen, right?

Rudy Giuliani didn't make HUGE strides in reducing violent crime in NYC? According to politifact, murder and robbery were down two-thirds during his tenure.

Didn't happen, right?

And then everybody's favorite, Trump. He didn't lower taxes, get black unemployment to its lowest level ever recorded, didn't get criminal justice reform (which liberals wanted yet Obama chose not to do for 8 years), didn't help create economic opportunity zones in the cities, didn't get overall unemployment to its lowest level in a generation.

Never happened, right?

Crime.

Wayne, democrats run the federal government right now, and as a direct result of that, crime is out of control in many places. Americans see it, which is one reason why despite Biden's economic success, his polling is in the bottom of the toilet.

The 1990s crime bill, which did cause a lot of incarceration, you know who wrote it? Joe Biden. Joe Biden wrote it.

It caused a lot of incarceration. But guess what, Einstein? People in prison, aren't out hurting innocent civilians. So while all those people were locked up, crime decreased.

You just don't get it. Liberals just don't get it. Locking up criminals, cannot fail to reduce crime. Why is that so complicated? You worked in a prison, and you still don't get that?
