President Trump is finally doing what needed to be done years ago in Washington DC. He took control of the city’s police force and invited reporters to see the crime crisis with their own eyes. For too long, liberal politicians let our nation’s capital become a dangerous mess while hardworking Americans suffered.
The media ride-alongs show exactly why Trump had to step in. Federal agents and National Guard troops are now patrolling the streets 24/7, making arrests that local officials refused to make. In just days, they seized seven illegal guns and arrested dozens of criminals who were terrorizing innocent people.
This is what real leadership looks like. While Democrats played politics, Trump deployed 1,450 federal and local officers to clean up the disaster left behind by years of soft-on-crime policies. The results speak for themselves – over 70 homeless camps removed and 80 pieces of graffiti cleaned off our precious monuments.
Local police officers are thrilled to finally enforce the law again. They thank President Trump for giving them the tools and support they need to protect our communities. For years, criminals knew they could get away with anything in DC because weak leaders tied the hands of law enforcement.
The president is not just fighting crime but making Washington beautiful again. He plans to fix roads, remove graffiti, and restore our parks to their former glory. This is about respect for our nation’s capital and the millions of tourists who visit each year.
Trump wants Congress to extend his control over DC police for the long term. Thirty days is not enough to fix the damage caused by years of liberal mismanagement. Republicans in Congress should give him every tool he needs to make Washington safe again.
The mainstream media does not want Americans to see how bad things really got under Biden. That is exactly why these police ride-alongs are so important. When reporters see the truth firsthand, they cannot hide behind their usual lies and spin.
This is what happens when we elect a president who actually cares about law and order. Trump promised to make America safe again, and he is delivering on that promise starting with our own backyard in Washington DC.
