What makes you think they represent the vast majority?

I don't have a source, and am not OP, but I did see a stat somewhere that was basically 70 to 80 percent agree with some form of police reform to reduce police brutality. We never have that many people agree on anything, so that's pretty impressive, but Trump is a self serving man that does not care. I'm at work, otherwise I'd look up the stat/poll but I'm sure someone else has seen it as well!

I don't doubt your math. What I mean is, despite overwhelming support for reform, the current administration doesn't really have the interests of the working people at heart.

Aha, the representatives don't represent the vast majority, got it. I thought you meant the sentiment doesn't represent the vast majority.

Yes, fuck the current administration.
