We elected a Criminal President and he has the nerve to think he can take over a city

[AZrailwhale]

Donald Trump was convicted on 34 counts of crime. Yet he sits in the white house talking about law and order. So now he wants to take over DC because one of his illegitimately employed people got his ass whipped. He would be wise to leave DC alone.

Trump renews threats to take over Washington, D.C., but his legal authority is limited. Here's what he can do​

An attempted carjacking that injured a DOGE staff member in Washington, D.C., prompted President Trump to once again push for a federal takeover of the city's government.

"If D.C. doesn't get its act together, and quickly, we will have no choice but to take Federal control of the City," Mr. Trump said in a Truth Social post. "I am going to exert my powers, and FEDERALIZE this City."

The episode reignited Mr. Trump's long-running call to take control of the city, citing violent crime and what he described as incompetent leadership. He made the case in February and July of this year, as well as on the campaign trail.

"We have to run D.C.," Mr. Trump said Wednesday. "This has to be the best run place in the country, not the worst."

However, the president alone does not have the authority to federalize the district. It would require an act of Congress to overturn the 1973 Home Rule Act, which gave D.C. residents the power to elect the council members and mayor who pass and implement their local laws.

After an attempted carjacking involving a government staffer, Trump renewed his push to take federal control of D.C. — but he'd need Congress to make it happen.

He talks about DC being run incompetently, and if that is his logic, he needs to stay out because under his presidency, the federal government is most definitely under incompetent management. But he needs a diversion from Epstein, so he goes after another black female mayor.

Violent crime is down in DC, so this threat is just another part of a disingenuous show by a corrupt pervert President.

He MAY have committed ONE misdemeanor. At least his accountant s did. What they did was essentially take a jaywalking charge and charge Trump for a separate felony for each of the thirty four steps it took to cross the street. No one else would have even been charged.

If the Mayor of a city fails to keep it's citizens safe the people who live there should be grateful that they have President who cares enough about them to step in and restore law and order.

The citizens of D.C. don’t care about democrat criminals. Remember they re-elected Marion Berry for a fourth term as mayor and several as city councilman AFTER he was convicted of crack possession and use with a racially mixed jury hung on ten other felonies and one misdemeanor along racial lines.

Crime is down in DC. You've been shown that, so don't repeat the lies Trump has said. Trump is a criminal, every day he sits in the White House it's a crime. So nobody wants to hear his lectures about law nd order.

 

[IM2]

It must really suck to be so butt hurt and desperate to make even the smallest point against that guy who lives rent free in your head 24/7.

Trump is the president. He is a criminal, so don't even try that silly tactic.

 

[IM2]

When criminals are released back onto the streets almost immediately people stop calling the Police to report crime. Why would they risk reprisals when the local DA doesn't put people in jail?

Trump released criminals back on the streets. So try another one.

 

[IM2]

The way it's going for the statist left they may be taking up residence south of our southern border.

You guys are going to be taught a hard lesson.

 

[IM2]

Pres. Trump already owns D.C., which he might just rename it D.T. for the schitts & giggles of it. Congress will do what pres. Trump tells them to do, IF the price is right!

Wrong.

 

[IM2]

Just because demofks told law enforcement to stand down doesn’t mean that crime did the same. More con games by demofks. All they have are mind games to the sheep

You have been shown the facts. You MAGATS are the sheep.

Crime isn’t down, crime REPORTING is down. It’s that way in most large cities.

 

[Chuz Life]

Think about what you said. He's a criminal and he's still the president.

Not many people are buying the petty arguments against him.

Enjoy the next 3 years.

Shouldn't of been car jacking couple's or ganging up on big balls the .....Viking Warrior of Steel .

And Good luck to the hood rats who challenge the zoo keepers about to hit the streets

~~~~~~
Wrong! it's DSA Marxist Democrat judges and Red diaper baby D.A.'s that have released criminals into the street. Then there's your demented friend Joey B that released hundreds of those of criminals into America.
That's why we hac MS-13 and Tren de Aragua gangs threatening and killing Americans.

You're right, Home Boy rule is the way to go. When you're in Mogadishu do as they does. From Marion Barry to Trayon White: Decades of scandal plague DC politics

 

[LeftofLeft]

Trump is a criminal; he should not be supported. Furthermore, violent crime is down in DC, so this is not necessary.

I’ve lived in DC or DC suburbs my whole life. Home Rule is a failure. It may not happen under Trump but DC needs to be Federalized with more law enforcement. This is the Nation’s Capital and we don’t need the murders, stabbings, flash mobs, and shootings.

Violent crime is not down and the stats reported are suspect.

DC police commander suspended, accused of changing crime statistics

A D.C. police commander is under investigation for allegedly making changes to crime statistics in his district. The Metropolitan Police Department confirmed Michael Pulliam was placed on paid administrative leave in mid-May. That happened just a week after Pulliam filed an equal employment...

Muriel Bowser stated Trump is well within his right to deploy resources to help with crime in DC. So whether she and Democrats welcome his help or not is irrelevant. There’s no legitimate reason for Democrats to not want Trump’s help except to play petty politics to the detriment of everyone else. Addressing crime in DC especially in the Navy Yard district, along New York Avenue and Anacostia would great for the residents, tourists and business commuters.

That's when you go from a drop in crime to a dramatic drop in crime.

 

[Old & Independent]

Typical liberal siding with criminals. Surprised you didn't throw some racism in for good measure.

 

[Man With A Plan]

That's when you go from a drop in crime to a dramatic drop in crime.

The people that live in bad neighborhoods know that there hasn't been a drop in crime despite the posturing by politicians. When you press charges against a dangerous person and a prosecutor puts them right back on the streets in a matter of hours...you're setting yourself up for a reprisal. People aren't stupid. They aren't going to take that risk for nothing. They stop calling the Police or when they show they choose not to press charges.
