Did the Chief of Police really not know What the chain of command meant…If so not a good look…

It's a good thing she's not wholly unqualified to be a police chief, in one of the most crime-ridden parts of the country, or anything.

You both act as if there's a given that a chain of command to handle the various agencies and actions involved here has been clearly established. It might have been but considering the clusterfuck this administration has been, I wouldn't bet any money I needed on it.

I'm sure it's a coincidence that the department's former Chief Equity Officer just happens to not know what "chain of command" means. :rolleyes:

But she's totally qualified.

And I'm sure you have confirmation that she didn't know what it means. I suspect a better case could be that she queried its existence instead of its meaning.

Even if she knew what it meant, which is highly unlikely, that kind of a response from a Chief of Police is embarrassing.

And I'm sure your defending such buffoonery is partisan hypocrisy because if it had come from someone on the right you would have been all over it like a pig to shit without ever extending any benefit of the doubt.
 
To argue against trump's involvement in dc policing based on falling crime statistics is a losing argument to anyone who doesn't have tds. DC is a crime ridden shit hole and has been almost since dc came under dim control back in the 70's. There are logical arguments that can be made against this action by trump based on other criteria, but citing falling crime statistics that are still among the highest in the nation doesn't demonstrate much intellect.
 
My prediction on this initiative is that ultimately crime will fall in dc due to this move and this will be a winner for trump in the eyes of dc residents and will improve his numbers nationally.

She knows what it means, dumbass. I get it -- you don't think highly of black people.

But I could very well have said those exact words. "What do you mean, chain of command" is a way of saying, "there is no chain of command, are you fucking kidding me". It's a more polite way of saying that. If I didn't say exactly what she said, I might have responded more like, "what are you talking about, a chain of command in this pigshit seat-of-the-pants, racist administration where one is more evil than the next? They don't know how to tie their goddamn shoes, let alone run a police department."

So I think you should apologize for that load of racist drivel.

You haven't spent any time in DC, you inbred hick. You're just going by fucking stereotypes, racist piece of shit stereotypes that persist largely because the DC mayors are always black.

DC's problem is not the Home Rule Act. It's precisely the opposite. DC has limited authority, and Congress still controls most of its finances and ultimately makes the rules. And Congress doesn't give a fuck about DC because DC has no political power. So DC's authority is more or less comparable to other large American cities, except those cities all have their state governments to back them up. Except DC.

That's what DC should be its own state. Racist asshole crackers like you can't stomach the idea of a majority black state, so you always go down this route.

Playing the race card. That's original!

The only one bringing up race is you. I'm looking at her words and her previous position which in no way qualifies her for Chief.

The Republican Party cementing themselves as the party of law & order is where Dem politics goes to die.

We have a DEI hire not knowing a basic phrase of her position, multiple Dems, including the Congressional Black Caucus making this into a race issue, other dams saying that more police isn't the answer and people being killed 2 blocks from Dems protesting Trump's move and, meanwhile, The border is a non-issue and he's taking clear steps to get control of the criminal shit show in DC.

No. It would have been too petty for me to notice. I don't have to manufacture flaws in others to feel better about myself.

Course, it helps when the the 'pubs have them in bunches like bananas.
 
It's hilarious reading the defenses offered by Trumpers here that DC needs to basically lose home rule because of the persistent right-wing stereotype that all large cities are crime-ridden hellholes. And it's totally absurd to argue that steadily falling crime statistics shouldn't count because the crime rate is, in their opinion, still too high. If that was true then why didn't Dear Leader do this in his first term when violent crime was higher in DC? Trumpers can say whatever the hell they want, but when crime in DC is at a thirty-year low and has been steadily decreasing for the past two years then the logical conclusion is that the problem seems to be taking care of itself, not that we need to take over the District and send in the troops to try and deal with a situation that has been getting better by the year.

Oh fuck off. You are bringing up race, you're just trying to do it with a dog whistle. You know very well what her words meant, and the only reason you are claiming she was ignorant is her race. Go suck someone off. Feel what it's like to do something for somebody else but yourself.
