Shouldn't the governor take a hint and enforce laws in Chicago?
At least 53 people have been shot, seven fatally, across Chicago over
Labor Day weekend, including a drive-by attack that left seven victims wounded, according to police.
The violent holiday weekend came as President Donald Trump renewed
threats to send federal agents and National Guard troops to Chicago
over the objections of Illinois Gov. JB Pritzker and Chicago Mayor
Brandon Johnson.
Trump on Saturday sent a warning to Pritzker in a post on his social
media platform, referencing recent crime in Chicago and saying
Pritzker "better straighten it out, FAST, or we're coming!"
Pritzker, a Democrat, responded in a news conference a week ago to an
earlier Trump threat to "straighten out Chicago, just like we did
D.C.," by saying that the president's plan was "unprecedented and unwarranted. It is illegal, it is unconstitutional, it is
un-American."

So why isn't Trump sending troops any of the 91 other cities in the US
that have higher rates of violent crime?
Or the 21 cities that have higher rates of murder and non-negligent manslaughter?

The governor and mayor of Chicago were both all over the airwaves singing from the same hymnal, page 99, "Threat To Democracy" song.
They are both disgusting.
They have a serious problem in Chicago.
Funding illegal migrants when students in the school system can't read or write.
Crime running rampant and not just this weekend, but EVERY WEEKEND.
And as usual the left is squawking "what about xxx city and yyy city which have higher
crime rates" and so forth.
Tell that to the families of the people who lost their lives in Chicago over this and
seemingly every weekend.
Again, it puzzles me why the left isn't concerned about protecting the citizens within
their own communities?
It makes no sense at all.

This issue, as well as just about every other issue Trump addresses, is categorically opposed by the Dems. It is not whether his proposal would improve a situation, but *who* it came from. It is called TDS!! Trump
could erase the national debt, and they would blame him for getting rid
of government bonds and the interest they pay. If everything is so rosy
in the large cities, why are so many leaving them for others, or other states??

It's certainly something I wouldn't object to. Now please explain why
you have no problem with Chicago's massive murder problem, the
governor doing nothing about it and actively rebelling against an
offer of help.

Yes. Because that's valid.
If Trump is actually trying to address the problem of crime (he's not),
then why isn't he starting where crime is worst?

AI Overview
Chicago is not ranked among the cities with the highest crime
rates in 2025, with recent FBI data showing it ranking 29th
among cities with at least 500,000 residents, according to The
Hill. In fact, Chicago has experienced historic reductions in
violent crime in the first half of 2025, with homicides down
significantly compared to previous years.
It puzzles me why you can't see the danger here.
Crockpot's pushing the false narrative of Trump and his
administration.
