Biden says Trump seeks to 'defund the police' -- through proposed cuts
Police departments should focus instead on forcing out officers who abuse their authority, the former vice president said
By Brie Stimson | Fox News
President Trump is the one who wants to “defund the police,†Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden asserted during an interview Friday.
"I don't want to defund police departments. I think they need more help, they need more assistance,†Biden told ABC News for a wide-ranging interview airing Sunday that also includes Biden's running mate, U.S. Sen. Kamala Harris, D-Calif.
Biden accused the president of proposing cuts to programs that support local police, in sharp contrast to the Republican incumbent's campaign-trail rhetoric.
Harris also stressed that voters should watch the president's actions rather than listen to his words.
"There is so much about what comes out of Donald Trump's mouth that is designed to distract the American people from what he is doing," Harris told ABC.
