It has been noted that Republican Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis told Newsmax’s Eric Bolling this week, following the wake for slain NYPD officer Jonathan Diller, that Democrats have lost the working class in favor of elites and as they “embrace the criminal element” instead of law enforcement via Mediaite.
On Thursday, former president Donald Trump attended the wake for Diller, who was gunned down in cold blood by a despicable pair of career criminals during a routine traffic stop in New York City, in an incident captured on body cam footage.
It was on the same day that Trump attended the wake and visited with the officer’s young widow and infant child. President Joe Biden was joined by former Presidents Bill Clinton and Barack Obama for a celebrity fundraiser for his campaign that included some on-stage schmoozing with CBS late night host Stephen Colbert and a headline musical performance by Lizzo, who is embroiled in a lawsuit over allegations of a toxic work environment and sexual harassment.
Bolling asked DeSantis about the contrast, and the governor said it’s indicative of changes in the Democratic party that are seeing it lose support among the working and middle class.
“The Democratic Party has turned their back on law enforcement, they embrace the criminal element and let the inmates run the asylum,” he said. “Yu know, Obama and Biden and Clinton can go raise 25 million because they’re in the upper echelon. So they’re immune from their own policies.”
“The people that it really hurts are the people who are more working class and middle income Americans,” DeSantis said. “The Democratic party has turned their back on them. They’re really become the party of the elites.”
Officer Diller’s funeral is being held in New York City on Saturday. Trump has been using the brutal killing as a talking point in his criticism of President Biden over crime, while some Democrats have focused on the officer’s death as a sign of the need for more gun control.
DESANTIS: They get no support from these Democrat politicians. It used to be police officers, a lot of them were Democrats. That’s changed. The Democratic Party has turned their back on law enforcement, they embrace the criminal element and let the inmates run the asylum, and a lot of these people. And, you know, Obama and Biden and Clinton can go raise 25 million because they’re in the upper echelon. So they’re immune from their own policies. The people that it really hurts are the people who are more working class and middle income Americans. Democratic party has turned their back on them. They’re really become the party of the elites.
BOLLING: You know, I think back to, you know, by, again, you’re right. Biden, Clinton and Obama, three of the four living presidents that are able to be there because, Carter wouldn’t be able to travel. But three of the four living presidents, Democrats are raising money in a city that’s just lawless. There’s people dying. There’s people being pushed in front of, moving trains. Homelessness is rampant. Illegals are flooding the streets, they’re beating up cops, and then the one Republican is over there. And respect. He pays respects for the for the men in blue. That’s a thin blue line there on my on my lapel. What a stark contrast.
