Because he's targeting only the blue cities with majority black and/or Hispanic people. Not the Republican run cities with even worse crime rates. That's pretty bad even by Trump standards.

You might want to consider why it is the blue cities with all the crime...

It's not?

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_United_States_cities_by_crime_rate

Mobile Alabama has the highest crime rate.

You sure about that? The list in your link is ALPHABETICAL by state, not in order of highest crime rate. Alabama is the first state alphabetically. There are other cities on that list with a higher rate, they’re just later in the alphabet.

Read the actual stats.

It depends on the year but Mobile, Memphis, and St Louis are consistently rated up there.

DC isn't remotely close to the most dangerous city in the US and violent crime is consistently higher in red states.

This isn't about crime. This is about publishing a primarily POC resident city that doesn't like Trump.

How many people complaining about this live in the city but east of the park?

Many of us have had it with the homeless and teens in hoodies and masks when it’s 100 degrees.

I’m hoping the National Guard will move all the homeless to Ward 3 and the suburbs.

Me too or right between 16th and Pennsylvania

DC has been a crime rampant💩 hole since at least the 80s, about time someone did something about it!

Why would he be worried? The files ain’t coming out.

Yes, look how he moved Maxwell to a cushy prison. She'll conveniently "clear" him and he'll pardon a known sex trafficker.

What's really coming clear is that he didn't just rape these girls he appears have have assisted jn trafficking them.

But look shiny distraction. Pretend homelessness is worse than raping kids.

It's not. That's what you are missing.

It is!! I’ve lived downtown for 30 years and we lost all enforcement and reporting after defund the police and all the buildings in the area have had to self police. Not admitting the problem is how we ended up with this tyrant.

Agreed. I get very frustrated when people claim DC is "very safe" or argue that crime is way down and we fixed the problem. We didn't. That doesn't mean I think Trump seizing control of MPD is the solution, it's obviously not. But refusing to acknowledge that DC has not done a good job addressing crime issues since Covid is not going to somehow liberate us from Trump's grasp.

Also watching the fiasco with Trayon White and the ineffective dithering of the council over the last few years makes it harder for me to explain to people outside DC why the city deserves self-rule and, ideally, some freaking Congressional representation. I shouldn't have to argue for those things, but I am tired of the city leadership providing ammunition to the people who want to deprive us of democratic governance.

Since when does making poor choices mean a loss of democracy though?

NP and I don’t want to diminish others’ experiences but I work downtown and frequently have been downtown this summer and do not find the city terrifying. I live EOTP so I actually rarely spend any time in upper NW so it isn’t like I’m in some bubble in Ward 3.

Use your brain. Democrats had access to the Epstein files for years. Do you honestly believe they wouldn’t have leaked even the slightest hint of pedophilia during the 2024 campaign if it existed?

No because Democratic Presidents don’t meddle in an INDEPENDENT DoJ, dummy.

There has been testimony and court documents out for years. Trump is on tape admitting to deliberately walking in on teenage girls changing during the Miss Teen USA pageant. Republicans just don't care he's a pedophile.

I see you still on that bs. Let me have some. I’d love to disconnect from reality and all truths.

Yes, let’s put the person who has committed countless crimes in charge of that operation!
