President Trump did what Democrats refused to do for years. He took control of Washington DC and cleaned up the crime-ridden streets that made our nation’s capital look like a war zone. While Democrats sat back and let criminals run wild, Trump stepped in and restored law and order in just weeks.
The results speak for themselves and they are incredible. Violent crime dropped 49 percent almost overnight. Robbery fell by 46 percent and carjacking plummeted by a whopping 83 percent. DC even had 13 straight days with zero murders after Trump took action.
Trump’s crackdown netted over 1,900 arrests including dangerous MS-13 gang members and other violent criminals. Law enforcement seized 198 illegal guns from the streets and cleared 50 homeless camps that were destroying our capital city. These are the real numbers that matter to real Americans who want to feel safe.
But here’s where it gets really interesting. Instead of celebrating safer streets, Democrats are throwing a complete tantrum. Illinois Governor JB Pritzker called Trump’s life-saving actions “illegal” and “un-American.” These same Democrats who let crime explode for four years are now angry that someone actually fixed the problem.
This puts Democrats in an impossible position and they know it. They can’t argue with the crime statistics because the numbers are undeniable. They can’t claim they care about public safety because they did nothing when crime was out of control. All they can do is complain about the man who actually got results.
The American people see right through this Democratic hysteria. Families in DC are finally walking their streets safely again thanks to President Trump. Meanwhile Democrats are practically begging for more crime by opposing every single measure that works.
Trump promised to make America safe again and he delivered in record time. He turned DC from a crime-infested nightmare into a city where law-abiding citizens can live without fear. That’s what real leadership looks like when you put America first.
Democrats hate that Trump succeeded where they failed miserably. They would rather see Americans suffer under crime waves than admit Trump was right all along. But the results don’t lie and neither do the grateful families who can finally sleep peacefully at night.
