Obama is right
Message matters. I dont think defund the police explains why we lost some down ballot races-its part of the puzzle. I agree that BLM was the treated likewise in 2016 but is it a fair comparison? Black Lives Matter rings true and I think was a good marketing of an idea message. It gained over time. Equal Justice I think is better but defund the police sucks. Our society equates money with existing - no money no cops.
I wish the social media squad could let President Obamas message just be and focus on the Republicans Real Time destruction of our nation. I would also like a Ferrari just for the record.
