Donald Trump issued a demand that homeless people in Washington DC leave the capital or face eviction, promising to relocate them “far from the city” while claiming federal officers would jail criminals, despite crime being at a 30-year low. Critics argue this plan criminalizes homelessness, risks violating due process, and ignores the root causes like lack of affordable housing and mental health support.
Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss the homelessness crisis, and point out that the problem is exacerbated by systemic corruption and misallocation of funds, with billions spent yet little meaningful progress. While Trump is one of the few politicians openly addressing homelessness, many doubt his approach, warning it may worsen the problem by treating homelessness as a crime rather than a social issue.
