Donald Trump is showing no signs of slowing down, keeping a relentless pace that contrasts sharply with Joe Biden’s sluggish years in office. Supporters point to Trump’s command of major issues—from Europe’s struggles with green energy and migration to America’s crime crisis—arguing he not only has strong opinions but the facts to back them up.
On crime, Trump is setting what some call a political trap for Democrats. With polls showing Republicans holding a 22-point advantage on the issue, voters remain deeply concerned despite Democrat claims that crime has dropped. The risk for Democrats echoes 1988, when Michael Dukakis was crushed for appearing soft on crime. Trump, meanwhile, is positioning himself as the candidate ready to clean it up.
