Trump seems totally fine with police stealing your property, even if you haven’t been charged with a crime
Donald Trump is going after one of the few issues proven to be a unifier across party lines: civil asset forfeiture.
This legal tool allows law enforcement to seize money and physical property from those merely suspected of criminal behavior. Unfortunately, there is no conviction requirement, meaning confiscation can occur before suspects have been given the opportunity to defend themselves in court.
TG: I don't believe asset forfeiture should be allowed even for convicted criminals. Too many instances have already happened where a spouse has lost her house or car because her husband committed some crime - and the crime is often drugs, which is something the federal govt shouldn't be involved in.
