See how long you last as police chief if you choose to not suppress crime.

So yeah, police are explicitly responsible for minimising crime, that’s literally their job.

I admit there’s some nuance there since police aren’t expected to actually prevent all crime. In this metaphor I guess the question is whether Trump is a bog standard criminal that maybe gets around the police but is kept mostly in check, or if he’s a special level of super-criminal that police chief Biden should have his career judged against.

The thing is, the people chose to have crime. They were presented with a criminal, and chose him. And I'm not even following the metaphor anymore either; he's literally a criminal. The police can't fight crime if the majority of people want crime.

True, I guess we need a Batman to handle this Joker, the “police” have been overwhelmed
