When he knows full well that most of the crime happens to be in the Red States where the majority of his fans are. He is rotten to the core. And it is not even sure that he actually won the elections. There are definite doubts about it in some quarters.

Oh, he would come back with some smart-ass comment like, "That is where all the crime is! It's in the Biden-Blue states! I will send in the troops to all blue crime-riddent states because that is what the American people voted me to do." Yup.
SoCal Sean (@seandiego.bsky.social) reposted reply parent
Has anyone asked him point blank why he's only sending troops into democratic cities and states, even though there are republican-led cities/states with worse crime? We know the answer, but I want to hear him try to put it into words.

immigrants aren't just workers. they're taxpayers. they're consumers. they're renters. they're public school students. mass deportation doesn't just hurt those who rely on migrant labor. it takes money AWAY from local gov't businesses landlords schools it will cripple communities. have fun.
