OPINION: The left has gone stark-raving mad. It’s like they want Donald Trump to win in the biggest landslide in U.S. history or something.

Riots. Looting. Beatings. Crime. Mayhem.
Nine members of the Minneapolis City Council on Sunday announced they intend to defund and dismantle the city’s police department following the police killing of George Floyd.
Council President Lisa Bender told CNN that with the nine votes the city council members would have a veto-proof majority of the council’s 13 members.
Pressed for details on what the dismantling might look like, Bender told CNN police funding would be shifted to other needs, and the city council would discuss how to replace the current police department.
