President Trump delivered on his promise to make America safe again with stunning results in Washington DC. Just days after declaring a crime emergency in our nation’s capital, the numbers are already showing what real leadership looks like. While Democrats spent years letting criminals run wild in our streets, Trump took action and got results.
The latest crime data from DC police shows violent crime has dropped by a massive 27 percent compared to last year. Robberies are down 30 percent and dangerous assaults fell by 19 percent. These aren’t just numbers on a page – these represent real American lives saved from the chaos Democrats created.
Sex crimes have been cut nearly in half, dropping by 49 percent under Trump’s tough approach. Even murders are down 12 percent as criminals finally face real consequences. This is what happens when you put law-abiding citizens first instead of coddling thugs and gang members.
For too long, our beautiful capital city was more dangerous than war zones overseas. Trump’s own administration revealed DC had higher murder rates than Pakistan and Cuba. That’s what eight years of Obama-Biden policies gave us – a national embarrassment where tourists feared to visit.
The vehicle theft crisis that plagued DC families is also getting fixed under Trump’s watch. Car thefts dropped 3 percent while other cities still struggle with out-of-control crime. American workers can finally feel safe parking their cars and walking to their jobs.
Property crimes overall fell 5 percent as Trump’s federal takeover of DC police began showing results. Business owners who were ready to flee the city are now seeing hope return. This is the America First agenda working exactly as promised.
Trump is already eyeing Chicago as his next target for a crime crackdown. Liberal mayors across the country should be shaking in their boots right now. The days of putting criminals before victims are officially over.
These incredible results prove what conservatives have always known – strong leadership and tough enforcement work. While Democrats make excuses for criminals, President Trump makes America safe again. This is just the beginning of the law and order restoration our country desperately needs.
