This is the crux of MAGA. He doesn't bother to lie about it, and because he doesn't, and shows absolutely no conscience about it, he implies it's OK.

Not to worry. The Democrats are probably working on another strongly worded letter right now.

Violent crime in DC reached a 30 year low in 2024 and is down sharply again this year.
