A heartbroken Chicago mother is begging President Trump to send in the troops after her teenage son was gunned down in the streets. Marquita Salley lost her boy Gregory Wilson III to the endless violence that plagues the Windy City every single day.
This grieving mother and grandmother went to Fox News because they know the truth about what is happening in Chicago. The crime has gotten so bad that families cannot even keep their children safe in their own neighborhoods. Democrat leaders have completely failed these people.
Gregory Wilson III was just a teenager when he was shot and killed during what appears to have been a gun deal gone wrong. His family now lives with the pain of losing their boy to the chaos that liberal politicians refuse to fix. Every day brings more shootings and more broken families.
Chicago has become a war zone under years of soft-on-crime Democrat leadership. The gangs run wild while good people hide in their homes and pray they make it through another night. This is what happens when you defund police and coddle criminals.
Marquita Salley knows that only strong leadership can save her city now. She is calling on President Trump to send in the National Guard because local leaders have proven they cannot handle this crisis. Sometimes it takes federal action to restore law and order.
These are real American families crying out for help while their elected officials play politics with their lives. The Democrats who run Chicago have blood on their hands for letting this violence spiral completely out of control. They care more about protecting criminals than protecting children.
President Trump has always stood for law and order when others would not. He understands that keeping Americans safe is the most important job of government. This mother’s plea should be heard by every leader who claims to care about justice.
The time for excuses is over and the time for action is now. Chicago families deserve to live without fear and raise their children in peace. If local Democrats will not protect their people, then President Trump must step in and do what needs to be done.
