(Radio Iowa) - Iowa Attorney General Brenna Bird used her prime time speaking slot at the Republican National Convention to tout former President Donald Trump's approach to crime-related issues.
Bird said Democrats like Joe Biden and Kamala Harris have made life miserable for law enforcement, while they treat criminals like victims. Bird focused on Vice President Harris, a former local prosecutor who was California's attorney general for six years, saying Democrats like Harris cannot wiggle out of their support for the defund the police movement.
The Biden campaign points to recent data showing violent crime is at a 50 year low and the number of murders in America declined 13 percent between 2022 and 2023.
