Mayor Bowser Credits Trump’s Federal Surge for 87% Drop in D.C. Carjackings

Have you felt it? That feeling that our great American cities are slipping away. It’s a feeling you get when you see boarded-up shops or hear another news story about crime spiraling out of control. Good, honest people have been forced to watch as their neighborhoods get worse. And what do their leaders do? They just talk and talk.

For years, we’ve been told that common sense is wrong. Want more police on the street? You’re old-fashioned. Want criminals to actually face consequences? You’re not being compassionate enough. It’s crazy, right? We were told to just accept the chaos. But I think that lie is finally falling apart.

And you won’t believe where the proof is coming from. Right in Washington, D.C., a city that had become a poster child for violent crime, the Democrat mayor just had to admit the truth. Mayor Muriel Bowser just went on camera and confessed that President Trump’s federal surge didn’t just help—it worked miracles. Carjackings, a crime that made citizens afraid to even sit in their own cars, dropped like a rock by 87%.

The results were so good, she couldn’t hide them. She had to praise the very things her party has been fighting against for years.

From ‘The Daily Wire’:

“This is what we think, in just a couple of weeks of experience, has worked: having more federal law enforcement officers on the street. We think having more stops that got to illegal guns has helped. We think that there’s more accountability in the system, or at least perceived accountability in the system that is driving down illegal behavior.”

A Staggering Reversal

You almost have to laugh. This is the same mayor who called Trump’s plan “unsettling and unprecedented” when it was first announced. She was scared of the solution, not the crime. But now, with safe streets and happy citizens, she’s saying, “we greatly appreciate the surge.” It’s amazing what a little bit of reality can do.

And it’s not just feelings. The federal surge led to over 1,000 arrests. They took real criminals off the streets. Some of them were even members of violent gangs like MS-13 who are here illegally. The mayor tried to complain about having immigration officers involved. But how else are you supposed to catch illegal immigrant gang members? It just makes sense.

A Blueprint for America

What happened in D.C. should be a wakeup call for every other city in this country. It’s a blueprint for taking our communities back. So, what’s the excuse now, Chicago? What about you, Baltimore? The leaders in those cities have let crime run wild for years. They tried their progressive experiments, and they failed miserably.

President Trump showed that you don’t have to accept decline. You don’t have to let criminals rule the streets. The safety we now see in D.C. can happen anywhere. All it takes is leaders who are brave enough to choose order over chaos.

We knew the answer all along, didn’t we? The solution to crime isn’t complicated. It’s about backing our police and enforcing our laws. Mayor Bowser’s admission wasn’t just her admitting she was wrong. It was proof that conservative values don’t just sound good—they work. It’s a sign that America is ready to be safe again.

Key Takeaways

• Democrat Mayor Bowser admits Trump’s federal surge drastically cut crime.
• “Law and order” policies are proven to make our communities safer.
• Liberal leadership has failed to protect America’s major cities.
• Strong leadership delivers results where progressive policies have failed.
