WEBVTT NOTE recognizability 0.936 NOTE language en-us 00:00:00.020 --> 00:00:04.640 The next question comes from alexander jay floyd of dallas pennsylvania he voted for president trump 00:00:04.640 --> 00:00:11.080 last time around hello mr john my question is actually about police reform and how can we balance 00:00:11.080 --> 00:00:16.290 commonsense police reform without sacrificing public safety in a time when, you know, 00:00:16.290 --> 00:00:20.940 part of the...calling two-d...the police actively cheering when they're gone down in the 00:00:20.940 --> 00:00:23.900 street and another part is tired of seeing a lot listeners? 00:00:25.020 --> 00:00:30.460 So, we have a great senator name tim scott from south carolina 00:00:30.460 --> 00:00:34.800 and he had a plan that was very much of a compromise plan but it was a plan that 00:00:34.800 --> 00:00:39.350 everybody pretty much agree to a lot of democrats agree to it but they wouldn't vote for 00:00:39.350 --> 00:00:43.090 it and it was a really good it was a compromise of a lot of different factors. 00:00:44.210 --> 00:00:48.600 And, it didn't get done and should have gotten dynamic could still be out there could still be 00:00:48.600 --> 00:00:52.980 ...resurrected very easily but they just didn't want to do it because I think the democrats are 00:00:52.980 --> 00:00:57.400 viewing this as a political issue and I probably agree with them I think it's very 00:00:57.400 --> 00:01:01.870 bad for them because we're about law and order we have to be about law and order otherwise you're 00:01:01.870 --> 00:01:07.200 ...see your cities burn and that's the way it is if we can do a plan like 00:01:07.200 --> 00:01:10.880 tim's god's plan which is really? 00:01:10.880 --> 00:01:15.180 It goes far enough but it doesn't take the dignity away from our police we 00:01:15.180 --> 00:01:20.080 have incredible people they've been protecting us for a long-time I mean we here and I feel very safe 00:01:20.080 --> 00:01:24.890 being in this room these are great people we can't take the dignity away we have to let 00:01:24.890 --> 00:01:30.550 them be able to do what they do better than anybody else so I think we have to look at it that 00:01:30.550 --> 00:01:35.580 way we have to we have to be very careful police are so afraid today that they 00:01:35.580 --> 00:01:40.880 do something slightly wrong slightly wrong and their pensions...who knows what happens 00:01:40.880 --> 00:01:45.830 ...life is ruined their wife for...been will leaves the whole thing it's a 00:01:45.830 --> 00:01:50.470 very scary thing to do and then you look at safety I mean you look at that 00:01:50.470 --> 00:01:55.930 horrible human being the chat these to police called blank right next 00:01:55.930 --> 00:02:00.500 just a disgusting and then ran off you look at that this is a 00:02:00.500 --> 00:02:04.240 very tough job and it's a very unsafe job is a very dangerous 00:02:04.240 --> 00:02:08.430 job we have to give them back their dignity and we have to give them back 00:02:08.430 --> 00:02:13.310 respect these are great people for the most part there's always going to be a bad apple 00:02:13.310 --> 00:02:18.290 in your business and my but no...what I mean there's going to be bad apples...we have to weed out the bad 00:02:18.290 --> 00:02:24.520 apples but we have to give we have to give the police back 00:02:24.520 --> 00:02:29.200 that strength that they had a short while ago and they have in republican 00:02:29.200 --> 00:02:34.090 cheney's frankly and stage but you take a look this is a democrat problem 00:02:34.090 --> 00:02:38.620 george I know you're a democrat but this is largely a democrat 00:02:38.620 --> 00:02:43.600 if you just take a look at the list every democrat city almost not 00:02:43.600 --> 00:02:48.980 all but a lot of them certainly in the top twenty five even if you go...top 00:02:48.980 --> 00:02:52.520 fifty almost every city is run by the democrats. 00:02:53.810 --> 00:02:58.580 People don't respect obviously has and they have to reason I promised four years ago 00:02:58.580 --> 00:03:02.960 ...the democrats the republican convention I'm going to restore law and order and I 00:03:02.960 --> 00:03:07.120 have...democrat run cities like. 00:03:07.120 --> 00:03:08.510 We have laws we have to go 00:03:08.510 --> 00:03:13.360 by the laws we can't move in the national guard I can call insurrection but there's no 00:03:13.360 --> 00:03:18.450 reason ever do that evenportland case we can...the national guard unless 00:03:18.450 --> 00:03:23.400 we're requested by a governance if a governor or mayor is a democrat and 00:03:23.400 --> 00:03:28.320 it like in portland we call them constantly I just spoke to the governor yesterday because we're 00:03:28.320 --> 00:03:32.170 giving them relief from the fires we're giving...declaration emergency 00:03:32.170 --> 00:03:35.880 declaration...governor let us go in and 00:03:35.880 --> 00:03:39.055 we'll clean-up portland so fast and a half an hour 00:03:39.055 --> 00:03:44.000 ...right and she's just torn but I don't understand the thinking but they 00:03:44.000 --> 00:03:47.820 are torn...I have a lot of respect for the governor frankly the 00:03:47.820 --> 00:03:51.980 isn't what happened in minneapolis was pretty amazing unfortunately 00:03:51.980 --> 00:03:56.460 this one on for a week or week-and-a-half before he allowed us to bring in the 00:03:56.460 --> 00:03:59.730 national debt when we brought in the national guard everything 00:03:59.730 --> 00:04:04.510 stop the crime was gun meaning the whole thing but by that time a big 00:04:04.510 --> 00:04:10.810 portion of the city was burned down...about minneapolis in seattle. 00:04:10.810 --> 00:04:15.320 We let them know we're coming in they took over a big chunk of the city twenty percent 00:04:15.320 --> 00:04:19.770 of the city we said we're coming and as soon as we said that the police 00:04:19.770 --> 00:04:24.380 department when n and these other people were exhausted but had we not shed we're 00:04:24.380 --> 00:04:29.230 going we're ready to go and we're going in the following morning wherever you have a 00:04:29.230 --> 00:04:34.210 democrat city not in all cases but if you look at the really troubled cities 00:04:34.210 --> 00:04:38.100 in our country the democrat run and that's 00:04:38.100 --> 00:04:42.310 ...weak...your president for those cities right now 00:04:42.310 --> 00:04:46.910 ...president but I can only do what I'm allowed to do george I don't need insurrection other data 00:04:46.910 --> 00:04:47.720 insurrection 00:04:47.720 --> 00:04:52.600 ...take care of two...anarchists we can do that very easily with the national 00:04:52.600 --> 00:04:57.060 debt we prove that in minneapolis they came in after the city 00:04:57.060 --> 00:05:01.900 was burning and the thing I don't really get is that the news 00:05:01.900 --> 00:05:06.640 media is saying no these are peaceful these a peaceful and right over the reporter was 00:05:06.640 --> 00:05:10.960 a cnn reporter right over his shoulder and you saw that right 00:05:10.960 --> 00:05:15.700 over shoulder the city is burning it look like it was 00:05:15.700 --> 00:05:20.630 berlin during the war it was the craziest thing I've ever seen is trying to say I don't know 00:05:20.630 --> 00:05:24.010 why in the news media tries to make...of it 00:05:24.010 --> 00:05:26.830 ...not protest is a far greater than project.
