Yeah, I am sure the Dems in those blue cities are calling and asking Trump to send the National Guard there. How about sending them to the real craphole cities in the south and midwest?
 

Trump seeks $2 billion to clean up D.C. in latest effort to control city​

Trump has falsely claimed he has solved the city’s crime problems. Now he seeks to transform Washington into a place reminiscent of his private golf clubs.


“President Donald Trump announced Friday that he would request $2 billion from Congress to beautify Washington, the latest development in his plans to dramatically remake a city he says was overrun with crime and decay before he intervened.

Trump said the administration would improve light fixtures and roads within a three-mile radius of the Capitol and the White House, as he accused D.C. Mayor Muriel E. Bowser (D) of failing to keep the city clean.

… “We’re going to have this place beautified within a period of 12 months,” said the president, while wearing a red cap emblazoned with the message: “TRUMP WAS RIGHT ABOUT EVERYTHING.”

… Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-South Carolina) announced earlier this month that the White House was “working on a package” that he and Sen. Katie Boyd Britt (R-Alabama) would shepherd through Congress. The “DC Security Fund” would provide Trump with “the resources he will need to improve the safety and quality of life in our nation’s capital,” Graham wrote.…”

Entertainment figures have an impact on people, particularly young people. It is naive to suggest otherwise. If you grow up in a culture that glorifies NASCAR, for example, as a teenager you are probably going to be motivated to spend your money on a used car that drives too fast. If you grow up in a culture that glorifies gang banging, you're probably going to spend that money on a Glock with a switch.

I think your environment can influence you, but ultimately people grow up to be who they are.

I had a stepfather who didn't give two shits about sports. Still doesn't. My biological father doesn't give two shits about sports. Yet sports are all I watch. I rarely watch television outside of a live sport. I grew up in a DEEP red portion of our state. I couldn't care less if I ever touch a gun. I don't hunt and I'm not a pub. 🤷‍♂️

Hegseth authorizes Guard troops in DC to carry weapons

Defense Secretary Hegseth has signed an order allowing Guard troops in D.C. to be armed. The authority is expected to be acted upon in coming days.
abcnews.go.com abcnews.go.com

“… Hegseth's decision paves the way for the nearly 2,000 troops now mobilized in the nation's capital to expand their operations significantly, including possible security patrols in neighborhoods that struggle with crime.

… "You got to be strong, you got to be tough," Trump told Guard personnel at the U.S. Park Police Anacostia Operations Facility. "You got to do your job. Whatever it takes to do your job."…”


 
"Since Trump Federalized the DC Police August 11 and called in National Guard troops to clean up the capital's streets 630 people have been arrested in total, and 86 illegal guns have been confiscated."

Wonder how many of those same 630 criminals or same 86 illegal guns would have been arrested or confiscated had Trump not taken the measures he did?

And if it would have turned out that fewer than 630 criminals would have been arrested or fewer than 86 illegal guns would have been confiscated since Aug. 11 without Trump's takeover (and we all know the numbers would be lower), then it looks like we owe Donald Trump and thank you. So thank you President Trump....simple common sense goes a long way. And please continue to ignore the out of touch radicals who control the majority of the crime infested areas of this country for it is their policies that allow for people with mile long rap sheets to continue to roam the streets and continue their drain on society.

Oh, and by the way, congratulations on having Letitia James and Judge Engoron exposed for exactly what they are, losers with the political agenda of preventing you from becoming president again. Just imagine where we would be had they been successful and we had Kamala Harris as president. Kamala f'ing Harris....lol, damn....unimaginable.

You want to take a guess at how many arrests were made by the non-federalized MPD, and without the assistance of American soldiers, in the same time period last year?
 
It would be amazing if all US cities could get $2 billion for improvements if it were actually for that purpose, not a grift, not for authoritarianism, and not for beautification according to white trash standards.

I'm not holding my breath for DC to get that, much less any other city. We don't invest in cities because blacks.

Answer the fucking question.

You consider it to be a waste of taxpayer money to prevent people from suffering and dying of preventable diseases?

If you're a shit person just wear that. I personally would love it if more of my tax money went to preventing unnecessary suffering, both in America and elsewhere. To me, that is the least wasteful purpose to which my tax dollars could possibly be put.

It's certainly less wasteful than calling in the National guard to put on a puppet show in jack boots. That you can't distinguish the two is incredibly damning for you both intellectually and morally.
