Donald Trump travels to Memphis today to take credit for the reduction in crime – but the facts tell a different story: Democratic mayors have implemented smart, effective strategies to reduce crime even as Trump cut funding for police and other public safety resources.
Local leadership continues to step up where federal support has lagged, investing in a holistic approach that invests in law enforcement and strengthens communities.
Fact: Major Cities Are Seeing Significant Declines in Violent Crime—Driven by Local Leadership, Not Trump
Bottom Line: Crime is declining in many American cities not by accident, but because Democratic mayors are implementing smart, data-driven strategies that deliver results.
Fact: Democratic mayors, DA's and police chiefs encourage the police not to enofrce the law, not to arrest criminals and to release them with minimal if any fallout immediately after. Presto: Crime is down!
