I think Trump should jump into this, and call a meeting of Mayors, Governors, and community representatives to have a public discussion on how to address and stop this carnage. It’s too easy for the media to bury this stuff, and for politicians to ignore it.
This is not Trump’s problem. Get rid of the welfare state.
but if we did have some high level White House discussion of violence and shootings in our cities?
The vast majority of this violence in Chicago is committed by feral young black men.
The liberals and media consider it racist to talk about certain inconvenient truths about who the perpetrators of the bulk of the violence and shootings are.
Any plans coming out of such a meeting, such as to reinforce police resources against people who commit the violence, would be condemned as racist by the media and the Al Sharptons and Jesse Jacksons of the world.
So, it’s quite possible the result would be, that the discussion ends, because of fears of being called racist by talking about the problems in the first place.
