The Partisan Divide on Issues

[Bob Butler 54]

Maddow had the mayor of Buffalo on as a guest.  He characterized the police union there as being a major obstacle to reform, a long term problem.  Some officers just want to use violence.  Buffalo would have to get in the habit of firing people until that culture is gone.  The mayor characterized the police as being on the wrong side of history.

Trump is presented as walking away from the COVID crisis, making the election about how well he is using violence to fight the people's protest for equality.  I think he too is on the wrong side of history, of going with violence rather than paying attention with the people.  As I said of China as well as Trump, you listen to the people instead of using violence to try to suppress them.
