The First Step Act isn’t even a blip on the radar. The Soros prosecutors should get 98% of the blame for this. People need to recognize that probably 99% or more of all violent crime in this country occurs in just a few of the largest cities. And of those people, and even smaller fraction commit most of the crime. These cities are Also where all the Democrat vote fraud occurs. I’m thinking that major metro areas, say 2m population or more, should be declared disaster zones and governed by a mix of military and state appointed commissions. And their residents don’t get any voting rights at all. While we’re at it, raise the voting age to 25 and completely defund all public education. These solutions should begin the process of fixing our nation’s problems.

The First Step Act is more than a blip on the radar in FEDERAL criminal jurisdiction. And if you think it was a good idea for Trump to support it, could you explain why?

I didn’t say I thought it was a good idea. I said it matters very little, with respect to the recent increase in crime. I would assume trump thought it would buy a little goodwill from his tormentors on the Left. He’s a bit naive on that account.
