Chicago’s mayor is picking fights with President Trump instead of fixing his city’s mess. Brandon Johnson called Trump a “monster” this week while defending his own administration’s focus on race-based hiring. Meanwhile, everyday Chicagoans are begging for solutions to skyrocketing crime and illegal immigration flooding their neighborhoods.
Johnson’s rant came as the Justice Department launched a civil rights probe into Chicago’s hiring practices. The mayor bragged that over 60% of his staff are minorities, with black workers making up 34% of top jobs. But the feds want to know if Chicago broke the law by putting skin color over qualifications. Instead of answering tough questions, Johnson attacked Trump as “threatened” by diversity.
Hardworking Chicagoans aren’t buying it. Local leader Cara Truss blasted the mayor for ignoring the city’s real crises. While Johnson obsesses over woke hiring quotas, gangs rule the streets and illegal immigrants strain public resources. Police response times keep slowing as shootings plague black and Hispanic neighborhoods.
The mayor even compared Trump’s America to Nazi Germany this week – a disgusting insult to Holocaust survivors. While Trump secures the border, Johnson’s sanctuary city policies attract more illegal crossings. Chicago taxpayers now foot the bill for free healthcare and housing for migrants as local families struggle.
Conservatives see right through Johnson’s games. He’s using race-baiting rhetoric to distract from his failures. Crime rates keep climbing despite empty promises about “investing in communities.” Schools remain dangerous while the mayor funnels money to political allies.
Trump’s DOJ is right to investigate Chicago’s shady hiring. Merit should decide job opportunities – not skin color. But Johnson would rather play identity politics than fix potholes or stop carjackings. His administration looks like a radical social experiment, not serious leaders.
This isn’t leadership – it’s ideological warfare. While real Americans want safe streets and good jobs, Chicago’s mayor attacks the president and pushes divisive agendas. Trump fights for law and order while Democrats like Johnson coddle criminals and open our borders.
Enough is enough. Chicago needs leaders who put citizens first – not woke activists destroying a great city. Until then, the bloodshed and chaos will continue. President Trump’s focus on safety and common sense looks better every day to families trapped in Democrat-run disaster zones.
