[They] were shot killed and throughout the country, and these are&nbsp;murderers. These are horrible murderers, and nothing happens,\u201d Trump began, observing that the punishment often does not seem to fit the crime.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf you\u2019re a murderer, you murder somebody you kill somebody, they let you out no cash bail, and all of these things and it\u2019s just killing our country \u2014 all Democrat-run cities. We don\u2019t have Republican cities like this all. Democrat-run cities,\u201d Trump continued.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhen I was president, I said, well, the Democrats have to fix that problem, and I would have gone in, but I wanted a period of time to go because otherwise you would have been badly criticized for doing something. They would have said, \u2018Oh, that\u2019s so terrible,&#8217;\u201d Trump explained.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"M-ROS-B2\" class=\"a8d\"><\/figure>\n<p>\u201cThe fact is they can\u2019t fix the problem,\u201d he declared. \u201cThey don\u2019t know how to fix the problem, and the only way you\u2019re going to fix it is the opposite of what they\u2019re doing. Not defund the police, defend the police because the police have no defense.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThey want to take away their pensions. If they look at somebody the wrong way, they want to take away their pensions, destroy their families, and destroy their lives. We have to do the exact opposite,\u201d he said, noting that the defund police philosophy is not going away.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI thought it was going away. It\u2019s not. I heard just the other day three cities. They\u2019re really into it, defunding the police. It\u2019s not even believable. It\u2019s hard, you know. Some things are a little hard to understand and talk about because they\u2019re so ridiculous but this whole thing of defunding our police is so ridiculous that you know how do you even debate it?\u201d he asked, concluding that the vast majority of Americans are \u201con our side\u201d in supporting law enforcement.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe American people are on our side. These are just politicians that have gone crazy,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>LISTEN:<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<figure id=\"M-ROS-B3\" class=\"a8d adSo\"><\/figure>\n[embedded content]\n<p>Trump\u2019s remarks <a href=\"https:\/\/www.breitbart.com\/politics\/2022\/02\/03\/joe-biden-blames-guns-for-crime-wave-in-democrat-run-cities-the-answer-is-not-to-defund-the-police\/\">coincide<\/a> with Biden\u2019s Tuesday meeting with New York Democrats, where he blamed access to guns for the spike in crime in the Democrat-run city of New York.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cEnough is enough,\u201d Biden said. \u201cBecause we know we can do things about this, but for the resistance, we\u2019re getting from some sectors of the government and the congress and the state legislatures, and the organizational structures out there.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>While he said he was not looking to defund the police \u2014 a call made by several far-left members of his party \u2014<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">&nbsp; <\/span>he called for \u201cmore social workers\u201d and \u201cmore mental health workers.\u201d<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p>As Breitbart News <a href=\"https:\/\/www.breitbart.com\/politics\/2022\/02\/03\/joe-biden-blames-guns-for-crime-wave-in-democrat-run-cities-the-answer-is-not-to-defund-the-police\/\">reported<\/a>, \u201cOverall crime is up 38 percent and shootings up 32 percent, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.today.com\/video\/biden-to-visit-nyc-to-address-spike-in-gun-violence-across-us-132341829534\">according<\/a> to NBC News.
