Donald Trump suggested he would enact a similar federalization of law enforcement in major cities including New York, LA and Chicago if they didn’t “self-clean-up” problems of crime and homelessness.

“We're going to have a tremendous success of what we're doing,” he said.

“Other cities are hopefully watching this. They're all watching just like everyone's watching here, they're all watching, and maybe they'll self clean up.”

“We will give you places to stay, but FAR from the Capital,” he posted. “The Criminals, you don’t have to move out. We’re going to put you in jail where you belong.”

It has also been reported that the president is sending in 120 FBI agents on overnight shifts to help local law enforcement battle crime in the district.

He did also say he’s going to round up all the homeless people and put them in camps. So there’s that.

They already put the executive order through to allow them to round up anyone unhoused and put them in concentration camps. We’re nearing the end game now.
