Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot called the first daughter's tweets "nonsense."
Ivanka Trump took a leaf out of her father’s book on Tuesday, firing off a tweet without seeming to first perform a quick check of her basic facts.
As we grieve over the evil mass shootings in El Paso and Dayton, let us not overlook that Chicago experienced its deadliest weekend of the year.With 7 dead and 52 wounded near a playground in the Windy City- and little national outrage or media coverage- we mustn’t become numb to the violence faced by inner city communities every day.While there was, in fact, one shooting near a playground in Douglas Park, there were no fatalities and seven people were wounded.
According to Chicago Tribune, Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot was “livid” about Trump’s error-filled tweet. Lightfoot said her focus was to protect and run the city, and she wouldn’t allow herself to be distracted by “nonsense tweets from people who don’t know what they’re talking about.”“That’s not what happened,” Johnson said. “She’s conflating the whole weekend’s activity into one incident.”
