Trump threatened in a social media post to declare a national emergency over crime in Washington. His comments came just days after Mayor Muriel Bowser said D.C. police would stop helping federal agents.

Didn't he just get booed out of a restaurant last week trying to prove how safe DC is now? How did it turn into a national emergency over the weekend?

Under the D.C. Home Rule Act the president can only direct the city’s police for 30 days in an “emergency”, and Trump’s authority expired last week.

I think the DC police should go in and arrest the pedophiles in the White House, child molesters and sex traffickers. Talk about a switch of jurisdiction. Last time I checked the White House, it's squarely within DC. Since it seems like the law doesn't matter anymore, they might as well.

And it turns out, or so it is being reported, that his federal officers and troops are avoiding the high crime areas anyway. They are concentrating on the areas most often on the news or where the elite go. The neighborhoods that need them most are being ignored.

It sure seems like the mayors and governors in the U.S. have a great opportunity to muck up Trump's shit by agreeing to work with him and then backing out (pulling a 180) over and over. Just as he does to muck up the system. Make things extremely difficult and never let him know what's next.
