    Democrats and legacy media have tried to make racism the biggest issue in American life. An in-depth poll of black adults from the Pew Research
    Center shows the message just isn’t sticking.

    Crime and violence, including drug activity, shootings, and theft, are the
    top issues black people say the communities they live in are facing. In
    total, 17% name crime as the most important issue, followed by economic
    issues (such as poverty, homelessness, and taxes) at 11% and housing at
    7%. Racism, diversity, and culture are near the bottom of the list at 3%,
    right behind “no issues” at 4%.

    Yes, in a poll of black adults on the problems facing their community,
    racism is polling behind “no issues.”

    Despite the full-on liberal embrace of Black Lives Matter in the summer of 2020, the frantic media coverage and the grandstanding by Democratic politicians and liberal activists have not reflected the reality. A Gallup
    poll from the summer of 2020 found that, at the peak of anti-police
    liberal sentiment, 61% of black people wanted the police presence in their neighborhood to stay the same. Another 20% wanted an increased police
    presence.

    Meanwhile, a CBS News/YouGov poll from April 2021 found that 70% of
    African Americans approved of their local police departments. While
    Democratic politicians, anti-police activists, and activists masquerading
    as journalists tried to whip up anti-police narratives, poll after poll
    shows black people want police in their communities and are concerned
    about violent crime, which has become worse over the last two years and disproportionately affects black victims.

    That won’t stop the next round of speeches and articles smearing all
    police as racists the next time there is a questionable police shooting. Activists set the narrative for the Democratic Party, which is why
    politicians quickly moved to defund (or, in the case of Minneapolis,
    abolish) their city’s police departments in the aftermath of the death of George Floyd. But these activists are out of step with the communities
    they claim to represent. They’ve repeatedly been exposed as frauds, and
    there is no reason they should be treated seriously in our politics.

    Thank you for cleaning up the disaster of the 2008-2017 Obama / Biden
    fiasco, President Trump.

    Under Barack Obama's leadership, the United States of America became the
    The World According To Garp. Obama sold out heterosexuals for Hollywood
    queer liberal democrat donors.

    President Trump boosted the economy, reduced illegal invasions, appointed dozens of judges and three SCOTUS justices.
