Washington, D.C., Mayor Muriel Bowser held a press conference Monday following President Donald Trump’s announcement that he’s taking over Washington’s police department and activating 800 members of the National Guard in the hopes of reducing crime and tackling homelessness in the city.
But Trump exaggerated or misstated many of the facts surrounding public safety in D.C., where the crime rate has fallen in recent years.
Trump’s plan prompted the District of Columbia’s mayor to voice concerns about the potential use of the National Guard to patrol the streets.
“While this action today is unsettling and unprecedented, I can’t say that given some of the rhetoric of the past, that we’re totally surprised,” Bowser said.
“My message to residents is this,” Bowser added. “We know that access to our democracy is tenuous. That is why you have heard me and many Washingtonians before me advocate for full statehood.”
