Backpedaling Like A Cornerback

One of the new slogans that the internals polls insisted would work is "Defund the Police".

In Minneapolis, the city council is already under way in attempting to do just that.

One problem...

There is no broad support for this (although that could change in a week). In fact, let me add a second problem here - now the very people who are saying "Defund the Police" are also saying, nay, insisting, that people who are taking them at their word are mistaken.

You see, when they say "defund", they really mean "reform".

Sorry - that cat is not going back in the bag.

Liberals: Defund doesn't mean defund.

Indeed. But then again, that can't possibly be a surprise to anyone who is paying attention.
