I've linked several times to @germanrlopez's February 2018 Vox article about Trump proposing to defund police departments but to be clear this isn't ancient history. *Earlier this year* he proposed what's actually a larger defunding of the police. https://t.co/0ontEbgqy9 — PolitiTweet.org

I was looking up the comparison to Ireland for idiosyncratic reasons and it's striking. They have ~290 sworn officers per 100,000 people and we have ~218. But we have *nine times* Ireland's incarceration rate. — PolitiTweet.org
