When Milwaukee snowflake Sheriff David Clarke is not out being a bully to regular citizens who disagree with him, he’s trying to be a bully to city officials who aren’t compliant with covering up his law enforcement department’s misconducts. When he’s not doing that he is saying truly dangerous, stupid and bigoted shit like this:
The good news is that there is a new PPP survey that says Milwaukee won’t be tolerating Sheriff Clarke much longer — they have been paying attention to how terrible he is and how poorly he has done his job over the years.
Only 31% of voters in the county approve of the job Clarke is doing, to 62% who disapprove. Beyond that, voters consider him to be somewhat of a national embarrassment. 65% say that he's had a negative impact on Milwaukee County's image nationally, to only 29% who think he's had a positive impact. White voters (34/59 approval for Clarke) and black voters (22/72 approval for Clarke) are united in their negative feelings toward him.
Among Democratic primary voters, just 13% say they would support Clarke in a Democratic primary today to 82% who say they would prefer someone else. Clarke basically has no path to reelection as a Democrat at this point. He probably could be the Republican candidate for Sheriff- he gets a 72/23 approval rating from them- but then he would have virtually no chance of winning the general election either way.
Clarke has run as a “Democrat” in name only as the only thing he has in common with the Democratic Party is the ability to spell the word “Democrat.”
