So I think this president and this White House have actually been really smart about this.
You don't do things based on a poll.
You do things based on right and wrong.
And law enforcement is an issue that the majority of Americans voted for Donald Trump for law and order.
I think anytime you have a video of someone dying, regardless of what happened around it, it's not going to poll well.
That doesn't mean you stop doing law enforcement.
And that's what the president's committed to.
So I'm not worried about this.
Those that I've talked to at the White House and those on Capitol Hill that I was with yesterday and the day before in D.C., they understand what stay the course means.
And ultimately, it's going to come down to crime statistics at the end of the year.
Are you safer in Chicago, in Memphis, in New Orleans, in Baltimore, in Minneapolis?
And I think the answer is going to be yes.
And there's going to be huge data to support that.
And that's what really matters.
I think its favorability will go up.
And I think when you see the number of people that have not been killed and you see the crime stats that come out, let's not forget Washington, D.C.
lied about their crime statistics to try to act like it was safer than it was.
That's been exposed.
You look at D.C.
now, people feel like they are safer in D.C.
