Why does Trump never talk about violent crime in mid-sized American cities?

Cities like Mobile, Alabama or Pensacola, Florida have much higher violent crime rates than NYC.

I live in Clinton Hill in Brooklyn NY and have a shop in Bushwick Brooklyn.

I own a home that I grew up in close to downtown Pensacola Florida and spend a lot of time there where my mom still lives.

Based on:
1. actual violent crime statistics
2. personal experience of our house in Pensacola having been robbed, ours neighbors robbed, windows broken out of my car two different times in Pensacola
3. I'm a LOT more careless and carefree walking around Brooklyn at midnight or 2am than Pensacola.

I love Pensacola -- on my way there this Thursday for a couple of weeks. But, the crime issue there is more concerning than in NYC.

Im not against using the national guard but if they don't want it then just let them die.

Dems want to federalize police and control everyone from Washington. 'Conservatives' used to be against this, but I guess if Trump tells them it's okay, they'll support it and dems will have the precedent they need

fricking dumbasses. This makes sense for DC where lawmakers on both sides live and work, but a Big Brother disaster everywhere else.

But daddy Trump said it was good, so DEEERRRPPP!

They need to send federal troops to Ville Platte. A dozen troops could do the job in a couple of days.

Count me out.
There is an argument legal and otherwise regarding DC. It is a unique governance situation. I've got no problem with the DC intervention. Clean it up. Use the clean up to demonstrate possibility for law&order in other locales. End it there though.

DC, yes, but nowhere else unless requested by the state or city governments.

Some of you need to get your heads out of the sand and realize that the democrats are playing dirty pool and have been for years now.

They are literally using every play from the communist and hitler playbook.
They won't stop and they will keep pushing it further and further.

Do I have to start quoting Sean Connery from The Untouchables for you simps to wake up?

Yep, send them in with loaded weapons. Clean out the thug controlled streets in these cesspool cities.

So unless governors of democrat controlled states suddenly start aligning with Trump on this issue the only way to get troops into cities like Chicago or Baltimore would be for the president to federally mobilize them and send them in.

Nationalizing Intel with promises to take more stakes in other companies/industries. Federalizing law enforcement in major cities. Mussolini would be proud.

Didn't read through thread, so don't know if anyone has already said. Just maintain control of DC as a contrast to blue cities.

Unless blue area asks for help let them stew, should help in midterms.

If you support, think about what it will be like in 12 years when the Dems have the Presidency back and they are sending jack booted thugs to your door to carry away any white nationalist terrorists.


You think they would not do it if they thought they could get away with it.

But yes I would support targeted federal task force action to fight out of control crime. Augusta Ga would be prime candidate for this. Memphis and Baton Rouge would also be prime candidates.
