I think that police department budgets should be cut but abolishing police is a stupid idea and if Democrats campaign on that, you will see Speaker McCarthy and a reelection of Trump.

However, are you bothered that most US police unions are vocally endorsing Trump and the GOP swiftly?

Do Democrats look blatantly antipolice? A lot of cops in NYC, LA, say they will be protecting Republican voters from now on and that Democratic voters are on their own.
