TRUMP IMPLIES THAT DOMESTIC VIOLENCE ISN'T A REAL CRIME

[demmiblue]

The president said crime in Washington, D.C., would be nonexistent if local authorities stopped counting “a little fight with the wife”

President Donald Trump seemed to complain on Monday that crime had not been totally eradicated in Washington, D.C., because local statistics continued to include domestic disturbances and incidents of domestic violence.

During an extended speech at the Museum of the Bible in Washington, D.C., Trump claimed that his deployment of federal troops as law enforcement to the city had turned D.C. from “the worst, the most violent city” into “a totally safe zone.”

“There’s no crime. They said crime is down 87 percent — no, no, no, it’s more than 87 percent, [it’s] virtually nothing,” Trump said. “Much lesser things, things that take place in the home they call crime, you know — they’ll do anything they can to find something. If a man has a little fight with the wife, they say, ‘This was a crime, see,’ so now I can’t claim 100 percent. But we are a safe city.”

Domestic abuse is absolutely a crime, and Washington, D.C., was not the most dangerous city in the country before Trump decided to take advantage of its unique relationship to the federal government in order to orchestrate his law and order pageant.

1. Next up? Decriminalizing of domestic violence.

Women and kids need to know their places in Trumpland.

2. Reminder: he was accused of abusing Ivana during their divorce proceedings.

That was by Ivana herself (i.e. not second hand), during a deposition (i.e. under oath).

3. FUCK THAT FUCKING PIECE OF SHIT.

Of course he's okay with domestic violence. Every other evil in the world, he is okay with; every good thing in the world, he tries to destroy.

7. IOW, hold women hostages again by their husbands.

Couple this malevolent attitude with Charlie Kirk (below) and women will be perpetually pregnant (excuse the alliteration), lactating, and in fear of their lives in their own homes again. (Some already are.)

BTW, who's the idiot who wants to remove no-fault divorce from options?

On his Monday podcast, Kirk cited an NBC poll that indicated men who voted for President Donald Trump ranked having children as their top priority. In contrast, women who voted for former Vice President Kamala Harris placed more emphasis on financial independence.

"Modern women, this polling shows modern women have become incredible narcissists," Kirk remarked. "And that's not an accusation. It's just what the data shows."
