The problem is, like with immigration, instead of saying “actually, that’s not a problem”
Democrats agree with the fascist framing and then propose half measure solutions, leading people to just vote for the reactionary party
They help produce these crime and immigration narratives they lose on
Here's the thing: If you believe that Republicans can always win on crime by simply declaring there to be a crime emergency in a major city, irrespective of any actual policing or criminal justice policies being pursued by the city government, then you are just saying that Democrats can't win.
