YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Donald Trump has been so humiliated by the fact that his lies about the crime rates in Washington, D.C. have been grotesquely overstated (crime is actually at a 30-year low) that he’s now making his Department of Justice investigate whether or not leaders in the city somehow altered their crime statistics. This investigation proves two things: 1. Trump is definitely lying about the “real” crime rates, otherwise he’d just release the “data” that he has, and 2. He’s desperate to prove that he didn’t screw up yet again. Ring of Fire’s Farron Cousins discusses this.

A very humiliated Donald Trump has instructed the US Department of Justice, specifically the US Attorney for Washington dc, former Fox News host, Janine Pirro, to launch an investigation into whether or not Washington DC Police changed their crime statistics to make Donald Trump look bad. Now, this of course, is absolutely ridiculous. This is Donald Trump reacting to everyone out there pointing out the real crime statistics that show that crime is at a 30 year low. Homicides are at a low mug, gees, robberies, all of that stuff. Violent crime, nonviolent crime, property crime, all of it is down in Washington, dc. But Trump needs to be able to justify sending out his masked goon squad through the streets to harass people. So he wants everybody to think that DC cooked the books and changed the numbers.

Now, here's where it gets interesting. Trump has told us from the beginning that the crime statistics are much worse than what DC says. If that's the case and Trump knows that, then that would mean he has seen data to suggest that the numbers are worse. And if he has seen data, you don't need to launch an investigation, buddy. Boy, you just need to release your data that you have, right? I mean, so the first thing this move does, launching this investigation is it undermines your original claim that you've seen the real numbers, which is exactly what you said. You've seen the real numbers, but you're just not gonna share 'em. Oh, man, isn't that a bummer, folks? God, he only, he has the key and, and he's not gonna use it because, you know, that would, that'd be too crazy, right? To show people what you're basing your intelligence off of, even when it's not classified. The second thing it does is it proves that he is absolutely desperate to be proven right after the fact. It proves that he did not have the intelligence, the research, the statistics before he made this decision, which again, actually proves that he's been lying about this. And the third thing it does is it means that all of the cops in Washington DC are psychic.

That may sound like a weird one, right? But nobody knew that this was gonna happen. I mean, we had inklings for a couple weeks, but in order for them to have cooked the books to show the crime rates were down, they would've actually had to do that last year when the statistics were being compiled. And they, they didn't know Trump was gonna win,

Except apparently they did. Not only did the cops in DC have enough foresight a year ago to alter the crime data, they knew Trump was gonna run. Uh, they knew he was gonna win, and then they knew he was gonna somehow release the National Guard, the FBI, and the DEA on the streets of dc. Holy crap. Get me a DC police officer on the phone right now so I can ask him what the Powerball numbers are gonna be. 'cause these people are clearly psychic. This is crazy. But all of those things would have to be true in order for little Trump's, you know, fantasy to be real. But here is what he said. He said this Monday night, DC gave fake crime numbers to create a false illusion of safety. This is a very bad and dangerous thing to do, and they're under serious investigation for doing so.

Until four days ago, Washington DC was the most unsafe city in the United States, and perhaps the world Now, in just a short period of time, it is perhaps the safest and getting better every single hour.
