Chicago is drowning in blood and violence while Democrats play politics with people’s lives. Over just the first two days of the holiday weekend, 52 people were shot and seven killed in the Windy City. These are real Americans getting gunned down while liberal politicians pretend everything is fine.
Even a Democrat alderman is begging for help from President Trump. Raymond Lopez told Newsmax that Chicago desperately needs the National Guard to take pressure off the overwhelmed police force. This Democrat is admitting what every honest person already knows – Chicago is out of control and needs real leadership.
But Mayor Brandon Johnson refuses Trump’s offer of federal assistance because he cares more about his political games than saving lives. Johnson would rather let his own citizens get murdered than work with President Trump. This is what happens when radical leftists put party politics before public safety.
The contrast with Washington DC could not be more clear. Under Trump’s leadership, DC just hit 12 straight days with zero murders for the first time in three decades. President Trump ended cashless bail and brought real law and order back to our nation’s capital.
Democrats like Johnson will say they are doing something about crime while bodies pile up in the streets. They talk big about police reform and social justice but refuse actual solutions that work. Their soft-on-crime policies have turned Chicago into a war zone.
Alderman Lopez called out his own party for this deadly performance. He said Mayor Johnson is more worried about his reelection chances than protecting Chicago families. When even Democrats admit their policies have failed, you know the situation is hopeless.
Chicago residents deserve better than liberal politicians who sacrifice public safety for woke politics. They deserve leaders who will accept help when it is offered instead of playing partisan games. President Trump has proven his crime-fighting methods work in DC.
The choice is crystal clear for every American city facing this crisis. You can choose Trump’s proven law and order approach that saves lives, or you can choose Democratic policies that let criminals run wild. Chicago shows us exactly what happens when liberals are in charge.
