    That will make true MAGA supporters very happy to see them clean up their ranks.

    Over 30 years ago in D.C. crime was much more of a problem than it is today.

    Apparently crime rates are down in DC and Trump actually cut city budgets. So sending the army etc is another strange Trump policy he probably came up with off the top of his head to pander to his cult supporters. My guess is the US will soon be running a govt deficit that is unsustainable even to the end of his term.
    He could have asked the mayors how he could helped out.
     

  5. Ahhh so you ran out of facts and figures and resorted to make shit up..... notice the crickets from your support gang... even they are saying... Mercor just quit while you are behind...

    so now number of people willing to commit crimes is a stat...you are a genius who reads the minds of people and know they have less people willing to commit crimes...

    holy shit you are on the spectrum...
     

  6. Police do not deter crime they punish people for violating crime. This nuance is why crime is not lowered simply by hiring more cops. Cops are called when a crime is already committed.... putting more cops on patrol is supposed to have a deterrent effect but cops cannot be everywhere. trump is just waving his hands and you are like a cat seeing a red dot from a laser pointer.
