Like I said, we wouldn't be in this predicament if democrats hadn't been soft on crime. And, even now, democrats are soft on crime and refuse to be tough on it. Even if Trump cleans up every city in the US for a while, as soon as control is given back to demcorats they'd do the very same damn thing all over again because being soft on crime is in their DNA.
Here's how it is going to play out: Trump is going to clean up DC and do whatever it takes to keep DC safe, despite democrats wanting high crime. In the rest of the country, courts will rule that Trump can't use his police state to clean up crime so every large city in the US will have high crime rates while DC will the only safe city in the entire country. Then when 2026 and 2028 comes around Republicans will hit hard on Democrats being so soft on crime and refusing to clean up their cities, forcing you guys to argue that you are for higher crime and criminal's rights, accepting high crime rates. The only ones voting for you will be the criminals and you will be arguing that convicted felons should have the right to vote.
