During the 2024 election, Democrats made three absurd defenses against Republican attacks that everyone knew were false, Biden was fine, the economy was good and crime was down. Since then, they’ve abandoned two of the three, but they also learned so little that they are doubling and tripling down on ‘crime is down.’

While statistically (assuming you believe the stats which had been tampered with by the FBI and rigged by assorted pro-crime groups funded by Soros and Koch) crime is down from the 2020 BLM highs (the media always insists that those highs have something to do with the pandemic, not the BLM riots and wave of pro-crime policies adopted by Dems, even though crime was fairly low during the lockdown and shot up over the summer), it’s still quite high relative to the crime drops of the 90s and 00s.

What most people see is random unpunished crime in urban areas. They see those places as dangerous. And when the media insists on lying about them, it demonstrates that it’s a dishonest partisan narrative factory. Lies never work about something people see for themselves. And a year after betting the election on three lies, Dems are still keeping the third lie alive.
