Scott Jennings confronts hostile CNN panel that “nobody in their right mind” believes DC isn’t a cesspool of crime

Watch Louder with Crowder every weekday at 11:00 AM Eastern, only on Rumble Premium!

Donald Trump did a thing, causing Democrats and the media (but I repeat myself) to have a knee-jerk reaction to said thing that they didn’t think through. Washington DC is a cesspool edition. Trump is against DC being a violent cesspool, so the media and Democrats (but I repeat myself) have to claim it isn’t. As Scott Jennings points out during another 4-on-1 handicapped match, no one is buying it.

Ponder this quote from yesterday as you continue: “Donald Trump has some of the best political instincts of any politician…”

Democrats and the media (again I repeat myself) have decided on 30% as the statistic to claim Trump is spreading fake news, because ACKSHUALLY DC isn’t very extremely violent anymore. It’s only extremely violent. As Jennings points out, no one is buying it.

Libs organized a protest against Trump’s D.C. crime crackdown, and then someone was murdered two blocks away.

Wild.

Whoops, wrong post. Here’s Jennings.

WATCH: @ScottJenningsKY highlights how much of a crime cesspool Washington, D.C. is:

You know who also isn’t a fan of the alleged “30%.” Gregg Pemberton. He’s the chairman of the DC Police Union. You know, the guys who put their lives on the line every day they leave their families to go to work.

This is what Trump understands that the media and the Democrats (do I have to say it again?) refuse to. The Trump Admin is well aware of statistics claiming crime in D.C. “has fallen significantly from COVID-era highs.” And yet, residents of Washington DC don’t feel 30% safer than they did 30 years ago. According to a recent poll, half of the city says crime was an “extremely serious” problem, or at least “very serious.”

Even the Democrat mayor of Washington DC, Muriel Bowser, is less upset at it than her colleagues in the party. She still pays lip service to “Orange Man BAD,” but deep down knows she needs the help. Keep in mind, this is the same woman who was giving out Airtags so residents could track down their car when it was inevitably stolen, and declared it a public emergency over how out of control youth-related crime had gotten.

Maybe, and feel free to call this a hot take, but maaaaybe Donald Trump knows what he’s doing. Just sayin’.
