Joe Biden in 1989. This is who the establishment expects people to get excited about voting for? They're as out of their damn minds as Joe Biden is. https://t.co/TSMOcEShAV

We need to address the rising violence in America by punishing drug dealers and users more severely. While drug use may be down, drug-related violence is still a major issue. The current lack of police, prosecutors, and judges is allowing many criminals to go free. The president's plan does not allocate enough resources to combat this problem, so we need to triple the commitment to law enforcement to effectively tackle the issue.

Speaker 0: Has to join us in making a significantly greater commitment to these 6 areas to stem the rising tide of violence in America. And that's what it is, violence. 1st, we have to join together to ensure that drug dealers are punished swiftly, surely, and severely. In the line with what the president is calling for, we have to hold every drug user accountable. Because if there are no, no drug users, there would be no appetite for drugs.
There'd be no market for them. Let's take a look at what the real problem is. It's not just how many people are using drugs as the president said, the number of people using drugs, cocaine in particular is down in our country. That's true. But the violence associated with drugs is spewing out all over America, and that's terrible.
I know it's hard to believe, but this very day, violent drug offenders will commit more than 100, 000 crimes on this day alone. And the sad part is it that we have we have no more police in the streets of our major cities than we had 10 years ago. And what the president proposes won't help much. What he proposes is no increase over what the congress has already approved last year. In a nutshell, the president's plan doesn't include enough police officers to catch the violent thugs, not enough prosecutors to convict them, not enough judges to sentence them, and not enough prison cells to put them away for a long time.
That's why right now, 6 out of every 10 criminals who are arrested on drug charges have their cases dropped. That's why we think the president should triple triple the commitment that he's made tonight for police, prosecutors, and judges for our cities and our states.
