Former President Donald Trump has expressed strong support for the federal takeover of governance in Washington, D.C., aligning with ongoing GOP initiatives in Congress. He believes that the federal government should assume control to address pressing issues in the capital, including crime and homelessness. Trump is expected to issue an executive order aimed at tackling these challenges, further solidifying his stance on federal oversight in the District of Columbia. Local officials, including D.C. Council Chairman, are responding to his proposals, which highlight a significant shift in the governance approach for the city.
