Krasner has framed his reelection campaign as a choice between the future and the past, “a past that echoes with names like Rizzo,” Philly’s former tough-on-crime, racially polarizing mayor, as he put it at a recent candidates forum. Opponents of the left-wing DAs have accused them of letting criminals loose on the streets and turning a blind eye to victims - all criticisms lobbed at Krasner, too. In California, both San Francisco District Attorney Chesa Boudin and Los Angeles District Attorney George Gascón are facing recall efforts. Krasner isn’t the only big-city progressive prosecutor meeting fierce resistance. “We always knew that Larry, a lifelong civil rights attorney, would come in and change the system from the inside out, and that doing so would make him a major target.” “His reelection means everything,” said Shaun King, a civil rights advocate and former surrogate for Bernie Sanders’ presidential campaign. If he fails, it would be a jolt for politically beleaguered police unions, and a sudden halt to what has been a steady shift leftward in urban DA races. If Krasner wins, it could signal the arrival of a new era, one in which the public doesn’t recoil from liberal criminal justice policy - even when crime statistics go up. It appears that even after accusations of alleged racism by House Democrats and a few Republicans, and backlash from liberal media, the president is not backing down from his sentiments that the “squad’ of four congresswomen are sending the message through their words and actions that they are “Anti-Semitic” and “Anti-America.The primary battle is a test of whether the left can maintain its successful campaign electing progressive district attorneys amid an uptick in murders in cities around the country. Put up or shut up, wrote, “America is so proud of President Trump and his wonderful policies!”Īnd yet another wrote what many critics of the Democratic Party have repeated countless times online, “Thank you for putting Americans ahead of illegal aliens.” Why hasn’t she stormed the camps with arms? She invokes WWII all the time on climate change. One Twitter user commented on a member of “the squad”, “AOC says America is running concentration camps. One Twitter user commented, “best country in the history of the world!” Many simply replied with an “Amen.” The comments range from very supportive to hateful, and nearly all political angles in between. The tweet has gotten 150,000+ likes so far, 22,000+ comments, and over 38,000 retweets. In other words, they believe in God, in a Creator, according to The Pew Research Center.ĩ9 percent believe in God or a higher spiritual force, and of those 99 percent, 70.6 percent identify as Christian. Less known is that at least 90 percent of Americans believe in a higher power. Population Clock hosted by the United States Census Bureau. The United States of America has an estimated population of over 329 million people as of this writing, according to the U.S. How many faithful Americans is President Trump talking about when he says “One Squad under God”? The video ended with a strong message to the squad: “AMERICA-ONE ‘SQUAD’ UNDER GOD,” implying that they are a squad of four progressive Democrats, while America is an entire squad of hundreds of millions backed by their faith in the Creator. The song “God Bless The USA” played in the background starting at the climactic line, “I’m proud to be an American.” The video included dozens of clips that showed American supporters proudly waving American flags in support of their country, the president meeting with people all over the nation, his Fourth of July Salute to America 2019 event highlighting America’s military prowess and intelligence with stunning military aircraft flyovers, his visits to disaster and emergency sites and the southern border, and him at an NFL game among other things. President Trump tweeted the video with no explanation other than the sentiment that “GOD BLESS THE USA.” President Donald Trump released a patriotic video on July 17 highlighting clips of some memorable moments so far from his service as POTUS with an added subtle shot at the “progressive Democrat congresswomen” who call themselves “the squad”.
