Leftist Maryland Governor Wes Moore's refusal to accept National Guard assistance from the federal government has left many Baltimore residents baffled, given the city's multi-decade violent crime crisis under failed Democratic Party leadership. While Moore recently took a victory lap touting a supposedly "record low" homicide rate, everyone who lives in the metro area knows the truth: large swaths of the city remain 'no-go zones', controlled by vicious drug gangs. Years of "defund the police" policies pushed by social justice warriors in City Hall have hollowed out the police to the core. Remember the riots? Now, residents are taking note of the president's efforts to clean up the violent crime mess in Washington, D.C. In just over two weeks, violent crime has subsided. Many are left wondering why Democratic leadership in Baltimore never had the same seriousness to clean up their city; instead, Democrats chose to defund the police and allow the metro area to descend into what Trump calls a "hellhole." Shocking reversal in DC crime data... "In the 17 days since the Guard was deployed in Washington, D.C., Baltimore has recorded more than 2,500 crimes—including six homicides, nine rapes, over 400 assaults, 252 auto thefts, 155 burglaries, and nearly 440 acts of vandalism," local media Fox Baltimore wrote earlier this week, adding, "This crime rate is nine times higher than D.C.'s during the same period." There was a time when folks in the Baltimore area would go to restaurants and bars across Inner Harbor, Harbor East, Fells Point, Canton, and even Federal Hill. But many have since fled the crime-ridden metro area for surrounding counties, as conditions became so terrible that raising a family there was no longer a suitable option. Now, folks mostly avoid the city because Democratic leadership has failed residents with a population crash to 100-year lows. Here's more from the local news outlet: Residents and business owners have expressed concern over the escalating violence. "Just brutally attacking somebody is off the case crazy," one victim said. Betsy Smith of the National Police Association commented, "I'd think residents would welcome help for their very short-staffed police department." The discrepancy between the governor's statements and the reality on the ground has left many questioning whether crime in Baltimore is truly under control. "We need to stop acting tough and start getting tough in Baltimore City," a local resident said. Smith added, "If the people in Baltimore City want to truly be free they need to embrace not only their local law enforcement but state and federal partners as well." As the city grapples with its crime wave, the call for additional support continues to grow. The most damning chart Democrats don't want folks to see is the latest exodus from Baltimore City, starting around 2015, mainly driven by failed progressives that unleashed a manufactured crime tsunami of their own doing, making any gang scene from HBO's The Wire look like child's play. Trump is giving parts of the country a taste of law and order, something that might prove contagious, given how the Democratic Party has subjected millions nationwide (btw, nobody voted for violent crime) to more than a decade of backfiring social-justice policies that transformed quiet communities into violent crime zones. Oh, btw, the way, after Trump called out Moore.
