Gotta give Trump credit, these Epstein distractions are getting creative

The leftist loons really have their panties in a bunch over Trump’s plan to make DC safe again.  Well played by The Boss.  Hope his peacekeepers come to my city soon.

Oh Goodness.  We are sharing reddit posts now?   Good gracious.

I read that he has FBI agents patrolling the streets like beat cops. DOGE should look into it.

cool story mdpee.

I get that the mayor has attempted to suggest that crime is down, and they are manipulating statistics to do this, as they have done elsewhere.

Here is the problem.  Not unlike the gaslighting Democrats did on the border and the economy, this attempt to gaslight people on crime through the bogus stats wont work.  The people who live there know they are being lied to.  So in the end this is not merely self-defeating on the topic, but overall on Democrat credibility and public interest and trust in them

Looks like people who are affected by the crime are appreciative. 

Unlike all the liberal idiots on this site who knows nothing about that place at all.

Mother of slain congressional intern praises Trump's Washington, DC crime crackdown

A grieving mother is commending President Donald Trump for his mission to make Washington, D.C. safe again after losing her 21-year-old son, who was killed in a senseless shooting.

 

President Donald Trump on Monday announced plans to take control of public safety in Washington, D.C. and is activating the District of Columbia National Guard and seizing control of the Metropolitan Police Department.

Tamara Tarpinian-Jachym, whose son Eric was a congressional intern who was killed in a D.C. drive-by shooting in June, says the president is "spot on" in his remarks on making the city safe again. 

"When I heard the news today, and he mentioned my son and mentioned the others who have been victims of violent crime, I was so happy and I said, I looked at Eric's ashes, and I said ‘Eric, you haven't died in vain.’ Things will change so other people are safe when they go visit DC or work in DC and that's my goal, to make people safe," she told "The Story" on Monday. 

Tamara says she heard there were surveillance cameras from the scene, but they are all grainy and told Fox News that even cabbies were afraid when she was in DC to identify her son’s body, saying the area was dangerous at night.

Giving people a false sense of security is dangerous to those same people they are lying to.

There is a video of the police leadership out on the street trying to sell the lie of crime being down to people, and the response from those people is essentially that they are not living what those stats are saying....I focking love it.

Well someone beat him up, but I’m not convinced the he was saving a damsel in distress story is accurate.  Is there a police report anywhere?

The media still has you chasing that butterfly?   

[avoiding injuries 1,617]

Liberals don’t want to live in a safe country, but if they were rounding up legal gun owners there wouldn’t be a focking peep coming out of that side. 

[The Real timschochet 6,999]

Once again the debate in this thread has devolved into an argument over facts. Trump opponents believe what Trump is doing is unjustified because crime is sctually way down in DC. Trump supporters believe it’s justified because crime is NOT way down in DC. Opponents cite statistics provided by the mainstream media and studies. Supporters deride the mainstream media (as always), and cite the DC police union which supports Trump’s decision. 

What is the truth? I turned to an outside source, the BBC: 

https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c8600x7dnn4o.amp

I am hoping this source might be well enough removed for all sides to accept. Perhaps I’m wrong about that. In any event, according to the BBC, overall crime HAS gone down, though some have exaggerated the amount, and it remains an unsafe city to live. 
 

My personal view on this entire issue remains unchanged: it’s not the big deal that either side is claiming. It’s not going to clamp down or reduce crime significantly nor is it going to impose some sort of police state. It’s a pretty meaningless show meant to distract, change the subject from Epstein. It’s designed to energize Trump supporters and outrage Trump opponents. That seems to be working.

The bbc. 

And all you care about is Epstein. You demand something that you don't know exists and that you completely ignored for the last 4 years while your boy was in office. 

Epstein is dead dude. Get over it.

Maybe you're right, maybe not.

Let's see what happens in 30 days, when this exercise is supposed to end. I suspect it will not, and then we will have our answer: Trump is just exercising his authoritarian tendencies.

Event #5,678,993,756 in which Trump does something and MAGA completely backs it, but if Dems had done the same thing they'd totally lose their shlt. Hell, Donald's behavior could stay exactly the same, but if there was a D behind his name MAGA would be apoplectic.
