In a series of controversial statements and actions, former President Trump has threatened a complete federal takeover of Washington, D.C., targeting Mayor Bowser over perceived inaccuracies in crime data. During visits with law enforcement and National Guard troops, Trump boasted about a crime crackdown initiative, emphasizing his tough stance on crime. He has been seen delivering pizzas to National Guard members and recently celebrated what he considers victories in the city’s law enforcement efforts. As tensions rise, Trump warns Bowser that she may not hold her position for much longer if crime statistics do not improve. This comes amid speculation about plans for further federal presence in D.C. and the broader implications on local governance.
