Trump Accuses Democrats of ‘Soft on Crime’ in New Statement

President Donald Trump criticized Democrats for being “soft on crime” in a statement Sunday, asserting that the party prioritizes protecting “criminals, violent and vicious” over American citizens.

“The biggest problem our Country has is that the Democrats are SOFT ON CRIME!” Trump wrote. “They want to protect the Criminal, violent and vicious as they may be, at the expense of our great American Citizens and Patriots.”

“That is not what America is about, and never will be! President DJT.”

Trump also targeted Democrat-run cities in blue states — including California, Minnesota, New York, and Illinois — for allowing “insurrectionist” protesters to obstruct federal immigration enforcement. In a Saturday statement, Trump instructed Secretary of Homeland Security Kristi Noem that the Department of Homeland Security would not participate in protests or riots organized by “poorly run” Democrat cities unless they requested assistance.

“The Local Governments must protect their own State and Local Property,” Trump stated. “Additionally, it is your obligation to also protect our Federal Property, Buildings, Parks, and everything else. We are there to protect Federal Property only as a backup, in that it is Local and State Responsibility to do so.”
