If Chicago doesn't fix the horrible "carnage" going on, 228 shootings in 2017 with 42 killings (up 24% from 2016), I will send in the Feds!

On what grounds?

Probably justified under the inherent powers of the executive branch to “ensure the general welfare of the public”. One could argue that Order (in the sense of protecting civilians from domestic enemies) is not being adequately maintained.

If the feds get involved, I hope it is in terms of RICO Act (i.e., a conspiracy to foment and commit violence to achieve a subversion of government), and not as a federal version of local police (which I believe is unconstitutional)

The grounds would be failure to enforce federal RICO statutes.

He could Federalize the National Guard. There is established precedent.

As a threat to the stability of the US Constitution. These feral filth have no right to terrorize Americans. Kill them all.

Obama sent in the DOJ to dozens of cities to STOP police from enforcing the law, using "civil rights violations" as a pretext. What what is a bigger violation of civil rights than gangland shootings of children? Or so Trump can say...and libs can't say SQUAT.

Gangs rule Chicago, you know, Obama’s old clients that are on his sealed client list in a locked up file at the Illinois Bar Association.
