Take Trump's dikk out your mouth. You're trying to mislead people when Trump rolled back every criminal justice reform Obama and his DOJ made. He doesn't deserve any credit for the First Step Act either, since it passed with veto-proof majorities. His role was transactional and nothing more.Trump's federal lock ups were 5% lower than Obama and Biden
The number of federal prisoners sentenced to more than a year behind bars decreased by 5% (or 7,607 inmates) between 2017, Trump’s first year in office, and the end of 2019, the most recent year for which final data is available from the Bureau of Justice Statistics. Preliminary figures for 2020 show that the decline continued – and even accelerated – during Trump’s last full year in office, meaning that the overall reduction in inmates during his tenure will likely exceed 5% once final data is available. Part of the decrease in prisoners in 2020 may have been attributable to policy changes in response to the coronavirus pandemic.
Obama made criminal justice issues a focus of his presidency and became the first president since Jimmy Carter to leave the White House with fewer inmates than when he arrived. Among other things, he oversaw a Justice Department initiative that emphasized lighter sentences for those convicted of lower-level crimes and used his executive clemency power more frequently than any modern president. The number of prisoners fell by 10% (or 14,988 inmates) during Obama’s tenure, the biggest decline in absolute numbers of any president on record.
In some respects, Trump took a notably different approach from Obama when he entered office. His Justice Department quickly reversed the Obama-era policy of seeking lighter sentences for some criminal suspects, and Trump granted far fewer acts of clemency than nearly every other modern president. At the same time, Trump signed into law the First Step Act, a significant overhaul of criminal justice policies aimed in part at reducing the federal prison population. In its first year, the law led to shorter sentences for thousands of federal offenders and earlier release dates for many others, according to a 2020 report from the U.S. Sentencing Commission.

You are parroting bullshyt being fed to your from obvious Trump glazers. It's in line with your Rogan caping too. You made a claim that was bullshyt, and now you're trying to move the goalposts. Trump benefited from policy passed during the Obama administration, plus from Federal prison releases during the pandemic. Stop giving him credit for other people's work when he was just there. Kodak Black and Kwame Kilpatrick - both amoral scum like Trump, were the beneficiaries of a "pay for play" scheme.ah so Kamala and her track record was going to do better than 5% decline
During his presidency from 2017 to 2021, Donald Trump granted clemency to several Black individuals, including:
- Alice Marie Johnson: In June 2018, Trump commuted the life sentence of Alice Marie Johnson, an African-American woman convicted in 1996 on nonviolent drug charges. Later, in August 2020, he granted her a full pardon.

- Kodak Black: The rapper, whose legal name is Bill Kahan Kapri, received a commutation from Trump in January 2021. He had been serving a 46-month sentence for making a false statement on a federal document.
Al Jazeera- Kwame Kilpatrick: The former mayor of Detroit had his 28-year prison sentence for corruption charges commuted by Trump in January 2021.

I am for neither side, I'm just posting whats from my server breh.
Barack Obama made significant use of his clemency powers to address disparities in sentencing, particularly those rooted in the War on Drugs. He granted clemency to 1,927 individuals, including 1,715 commutations of sentences and 212 pardons. Most of those who received commutations were nonviolent drug offenders, many of whom had been serving disproportionately long sentences due to mandatory minimum laws, including crack-cocaine sentencing disparities that disproportionately affected Black Americans.

Trump-tied lobbyists paid massive sums to push pardons
Trump-tied lobbyists were paid lucrative sums by clients angling for last-minute pardons from the president.www.opensecrets.org
However,
Trump was no criminal justice reform advocate. He was the opposite.
Trump used his clemency power sparingly despite a raft of late pardons and commutations
Only two other presidents since 1900 – George W. and George H.W. Bush – granted fewer acts of clemency than Trump.www.pewresearch.org
