How is a declining crime rate "an emergency?"
I would think a 50% drop in about 25 years is more than "a little."
Let's take another look...

Based on what they do to hotels they're given to live in, lot of them would probably end up getting evicted. Those who are too unstable due to mental illness and or drugs aren't going to be able to maintain housing.

They got caught for lying about it, mostly. As Nixon remarked, it's always the cover-up that gets you. But not entirely. Would you like me to show you again?
If you were looking for tax evaders, I guess the FBI guys after Al Capone were a success. But they got him. Unfortunately for Capone, there wasn't a president who was willing to pardon him, so unlike Trump's underlings, he stayed in prision.
Almost like the MAGA insurrection on Jan 6. Without the attacks on police officers, that is.

What's it at now though? How many cars have been broken into? How many houses have been burglarized? How many stores have been robbed? How many car thefts and carjackings? How many people have been assaulted? How much drug dealing is going on? How many crack houses and meth labs are there? On a scale of 1 to 10 how safe is DC according to most residents and business owners?

Yeah, I agree. For those who don't just need housing, but have other needs, that can be addressed. Rehabilitation and mental health facilities, government maintained, are a possibility. If not directly run by the government, such facilities can have government aid and oversight. These are the kinds of things I would love for my taxes to support (assuming they are run well). We can spare a few drones, I bet, for the greater good. We could actually be efficient instead of this Trumpy farce we've been seeing.

Trump has indicated he could "go further" in his actions to address crime, though violent crime has dropped recently.

But it's "an emergency." So far, all attempts to deflect from Trump's involvement with Epstein have failed. Something had to be done. This one is just the latest of many attempts.

Examples of worse than doesn't necessarily equal the place is okay. But this is really only about being anti anything Trump does isn't it? It doesn't matter whatever it is, it absolutely must be seen and very very bad and evil. So there's no point in even discussing it. We get it it, every single thing Trump does is wrong and evil.

Yeah, it just shows that Trump's "emergency" has more to do with a desperate search for deflection from his Epstein problems.
It actually doesn't matter. In a weird way, this just keeps the Epstein problem front and center for him.
It's funny how you guys always end up saying terrible things about Trump and hoping someone else will take ownership. You misunderstand the nature of evil. Even evil people don't get up in the morning and consider how to so more evil that day.

Given a 50% drop in serious crime in D.C. over the past 2 decades, one smart move might be to study what D.C. police have been doing, and get cities with higher crime rates to do it as well. I'm pretty sure it doesn't involve National Guard troops occupying the Lincoln Memorial, or charging some idiot with a felony for tossing a subway sandwich at someone.
But that's assuming one actually cares about crime rates, rather than trying to distract Americans from Trump's Epstein problem.

I think I called it right more or less and so there's just no point in discussing it. And everything and anything imaginable is a distraction from Epstein. I read that umpteen times a day going though threads. I'll bet "Epstein" has been written at least a thousand times in the last 30 days on CF. I wouldn't be surprised if some folks mutter it in their sleep all night long.

No they didnt. No one was charged with lying about colluding with Russia to interfere with the election.
You never showed me one person charged with colluding with the Russians to influence the election.

For some folks there's absolutely nothing on earth that justifies Trump's actions regarding anything.
3.4 more years of daily anger and bitterness for them to go though.

One more for you...
Roger Stone, a close Trump ally, met with a Russian man in May 2016 claiming to have “dirt” that could help Trump be elected.
