MSNBC anchor Tiffany Cross claimed that Republicans’ focus on lowering crime in the U.S. represents their "tried-and-true method of fearmongering and race-baiting."claimed that Republicans’ focus on lowering crime in the U.S. represents their"tried-and-true method of fearmongering and race-baiting."
To illustrate her claim that the GOP’s anti-crime policies constitute deceptive racist attacks on the Black community, Cross compared the 2022 Republican Party midterm election strategy"Willie Horton 2.0," a reference to a campaign ad from the 1988 presidential election that pitted then-Republican Vice President George H.W.
Cross began her argument by introducing a Republican attack ad aimed at Democratic Senate Candidate for Wisconsin,. She stated,"Republicans are resorting to their tried-and-true method of fearmongering and race baiting by focusing on crime. Take a listen." The ad argued that Barnes supports the policy, as he wrote a bill in 2015 pushing to end cash bail. It slammed Barnes’ bill for stipulating that"the court may not use the nature, number, and gravity of the offenses as the sole sufficient reason for refusing to release" defendants.
