Tim weighs the extremes of Caruso's real-estate-mogul approach against Hernandez's police-abolition platform, agreeing with some of her points on housing while rejecting full defunding.
- Tim notes LA has people being murdered alongside the guitars and tacos.
- On Hernandez's claim that tough-on-crime policies don't create safer communities, Tim counters that crime has gone down everywhere except recently.
- Can't defund police without money to retrain them or replace them.
- Hernandez's housing and renter protection platform isn't exactly specific.
- Tim on non-citizens voting in local elections: that proposal won't excite people.
- If you let non-citizens vote you end up with people getting every benefit citizens get, and you don't really have a country anymore.
- Every country in the world makes a distinction between citizens and non-citizens—it's not about white supremacy or patriarchy.
- Tim: "But hey, who gives a fuck, I live in Austin."
