Trump: ‘Afghanistan is a safe place by comparison’ to Chicago by stableford
President Trump used his first trip to Chicago as president to publicly disparage the city and its police chief, who had boycotted his appearance.
Before the event, Chicago Police Superintendent Eddie Johnson told reporters that he would not attend Trump’s speech in protest of what he called the president’s"racial insults." The Chicago Police Department did not immediately return a request seeking comment. But violent crime has actually been on the decline in the city since 2016, the year Johnson was appointed superintendent. According to the Chicago Tribune, homicides and shootings in 2019 are down 11 percent from this time a year ago. And the number of shootings is down more than 26 percent this year compared to 2016.
“Under this administration, D.C. is a place where facts don't seem to matter,” Chicago Police Department spokesman Anthony Guglielmi tweeted. “But that's not the case in Chicago.”“Eddie Johnson wants to talk about values,” Trump said. “People like Johnson put criminals and illegal aliens before the citizens of Chicago. And those are his values. And frankly those values to me are a disgrace. ... I want Eddie Johnson to change his values and change them fast.
