The only thing Trump did stupidly here is use a Tweet where you are limited to 140 characters. He should have sent prayers to the family first and foremost and then engaged in a debate about needless inner-city violence. From the podium, not Twitter.
This kind of murder in liberal cesspools like Chicago needs to stop. Fundamentally, Trump is right. Liberalism has failed the inner cities. This kind of crime should not happen to ANY family, whether they come from a famous family like Dwyane Wade's or just some random American.
It happens all too much in the city of Chicago, which is run by Obama's former Chief of Staff.
From a policy perspective, Democrats have failed their constituency. Over and over and over again.
Thank you! At least there's one other person here who isn't a shill for crooked Hillary. They just want to attack Trump for this because they know it's damning of the policies pursued by their bigoted party in cities like Chicago. Democratic policies have directly led to the deaths of countless black people and when Trump steps up to end this they call him racist.
Everyday I understand more and more why so many Atlas-blue avatars run from the ignorance that trump supporters spew.
Absolutely embarrassing.
Disgrace.
He has nothing to stand on because the facts about Chicago, Detroit, Baltimore, and I could go on and on speak for themselves. They're crime ridden, impoverished, and failing. People are fleeing those once beautiful American cities. And who has been running them for decades now? Democrats.
Facts? How about this- in 1995, there were 828 murders in the city of Chicago. In 2015, there were 508. Now, I'm not saying that that isn't still far too high, or that more progress couldn't have been made, but given that the population barely changed in that time period, a near-40% decrease in murders definitely sounds like an improvement.
