For years, members of the Democrat Party has slammed the police, called for police departments to be defunded, and some have even called for the entire police system to be abolished.
But now that a mob of thousands of anti-Israel, pro-Hamas protesters are threatening the Democratic National Convention in Chicago, Democrats have called in the cops.
Conservative comedian Tim Young shared one video, showing hundreds of police officers surrounding the DNC venue on Sunday.
“Democrats want to defund the police… Unless the police are surrounding the DNC to protect them,” Young quipped.

DMLNewsApp and TeamDML.com founder Dennis Michael Lynch also noted, “The same Dem Party who wants to DEFUND the POLICE has made Chicago a Police State to protect themselves from their own.”

Podcaster Eric Matheny noted, “The riot police outside the DNC aren’t there to protect Democrats from Trump supporters. They’re there to protect Democrats from other Democrats.”
