Trump 2.0: MAGAA

[BDKJMU]

and killed in a carjacking.This is a guy who survived the Taliban but couldn't survive working as a Lyft driver in our nation's capital.

"Congressman Henry Cuellar was carjacked. You had an aide to Senator Rand Paul who was stabbed four times trying to get a burrito bowl. You've got a congressional intern who was shot and killed near the White House. You have two embassy staffers from the Israeli embassy who were just murdered. You had a DOGE staffer who was beaten within an inch of his life during a carjacking."

You have to ask yourself, why would Democrats oppose federal assistance in making DC safer for them and their staff?

[Caribbean Hen]

Falling to levels that are still nowhere near safe

The streets tell no lies

Different issue. And we’ve seen high statistics before. The question is does it warrant federal troops? The answer is no. No it doesn’t.

Wrong

A certain segment of our society has been coddled way too long and it seems to only be getting worse.

It’s pretty obvious by now nothing is gonna change especially when there is absolutely no repercussions from parents or the judicial system

Calling in the feds might actually help these kids get on a better track for the rest of their lives

trump is doing it:
1) as a power play
b) to stroke his own ego
III) because he didn't like looking at the homeless camped along the route to his golf course in Virginia
- all of the above

C. A country’s capital city should be its crown jewel city. It usually gets the most international attention and tourists. And it should have the lowest crime rate of the major cities. DC is 23rd according to wiki in population. So until DC is the lowest in the Top 25 (not even close) and one could walk down the streets of SE DC in Anacostia at 2 AM without fear of being mugged/shot (you‘d currently have to have a death wish to do that) there should be massive resources poured in either state (in this case there is none) so Fed.

Solutions:
-Put police or MPs on every single crime ridden street corner.

-End cashless bail.
-Maximum sentenced for every repeat offender.
-3 strikes your our (automatic life for 3rd felony conviction).
-Try all 15-17 yr olds committing violent crime as adults

There‘s shouldn‘t be anyone on the streets with dozens of arrests. No more revolving door, slaps on the wrist because so and so thug had a hard life, no daddy, and deep down is really a good boy. If the DC prison doesn‘t have room, all the Club Fed locations around the country does. Do all the above and after a few years, problem solved.

This all should have been done decades ago after Johnson‘s New Deal led to the destruction of fatherhood, especially in the inner city. Now Trump is finally doing what should have been done a half century ago. Thank goodness we have new sheriff in town.

Then why does he have the national guard on the Mall on display like the tinpot dictator of a banana republic would rather than having them in SE DC like someone who is serious about reducing crime might?

Trump Is Right That D.C. Has a Serious Crime Problem

The reality is more complicated than either the president or the mayor depict. Bowser is right that violence has declined. But the nation’s capital really does have a long-standing and profound violence problem that will not improve without deliberate intervention.

Like most other big cities, D.C. experienced a surge in violence during the pandemic. A timely analysis from the crime researcher Jeff Asher shows that murder crested in December 2023 and has been declining steadily since; the 2025 total through last month equals the equivalent figure in 2019. Carjackings are also down; Asher reports that July saw the fewest monthly carjackings since May 2020.

Look beyond the recent past, and the trend lines are less sunny. Although violent-crime rates overall are near 30-year lows, Washington’s murder rate was generally rising even before the pandemic. The murder rate at the end of 2024 was, per Asher’s data, lower than 2023, but still about 70 percent higher than that of a decade prior. And although carjackings are down, they’re still elevated over pre-2020. Lastly, Asher highlights some discrepancies between the city’s official violent-crime statistics and what it reports to the FBI, with the latter showing a more gradual decline in overall violence.

Notably, both sets of statistics seem out of keeping with the views of D.C. residents. About 65 percent of them told The Washington Post that crime was a “very” or “extremely” serious problem last year, even as violence declined.

Perhaps locals are responding to a measurable increase in public disorder—petty offenses such as vagrancy, shoplifting, and unsanitary conditions, which drive our perceptions of major crime. As I noted in a Manhattan Institute report last summer, indicators such as unsheltered homelessness and sanitation-enforcement requests to the city’s 311 line have spiked (and those trends continue into this year). When Trump complains of rising “squalor,” he’s not off base.

Such problems on their own would not necessarily warrant a federal takeover, though. What might is the fact that although crime is declining, Washington is still far more dangerous than the capital of the United States should be. Let’s not define deviancy down.

TACO Trump Backs Out of China Tariffs Hours Before Deadline

The president has lived up to his “TACO Trump” nickname by giving China a 90-day extension on increased tariff rates at the 11th hour.

Tariffs as high as 145 percent were due to be implemented on goods from China at midnight Tuesday. The last-minute extension came hours after Trump provided a vague response to reporters on extending the deadline on Monday.
...
Trump signed a new Executive Order later on Monday. China will now have its tariff suspension deadline pushed to Nov. 10, the second time Trump has given them special treatment this year.

The White House said the extension was necessary “to facilitate ongoing and productive discussion with China about remedying trade imbalances, unfair trade practices, expanding market access for American exports, and aligning with the United States on national security and economic matters.”

trump continues to CHICKEN OUT of putting tariffs on one of the countries that deserves the them the most.

Yes, trump does. It's called the Bill of Rights. It's part the the U.S. Constitution which homan should have taken an oath to support and defend. If he hasn't he shouldn't be holding his position. That oath supersedes his loyalty to trump.

trump has taken an oath to preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States.

The law pertains to government too as part of the social contract.

And if you really want to end crime, there’s much more to it than enforcement. Socio-economics, lack of parenting, culture, rehabilitation.

Just don’t mug or shoot anybody and you’re not gonna have a problem.. also pay your parking tickets and don’t drive with a suspended license… sounds a bit trivial but if our local leaders tell us that trivial stuff is not really important at all, it only leads to bigger crimes

Donald Trump is once again doing what’s right for the United States of America

I dunno, I've been told that talking about these things are racist and bigoted. You should be careful to not offend anybody.

You CANNOT set aside the Constitution PERIOD. It is the foundation upon which the republic is built. Without it there is no United States of America.

He can’t get away with that statement? It applies to all ethnicities.

Maybe he couldn’t get in prime time was that he’s a gigantic hack.
