Project Much? Democrat Mayors Association Slams

In this episode of “The Democrat Party: The Most Hypocritical Group of People on the Planet”…

Blatant hypocrisy in one of the most-used instruments in the Democrat toolbox. Moreover, no one does projection — a protection mechanism used to attribute one’s own undesirable beliefs or behaviors to others in an effort to deflect duty or criticism — better than Democrat politicians. 

This brings us to the Democrat Mayors Association (DMA) and its absurdly ironic assertion in response to President Donald Trump’s announcement on Monday that he would federalize the Metropolitan Police Department in Washington, D.C., to reply to crime, by putting it under the authority of Attorney General Pam Bondi. 

Needless to say, Democrats and their quasi-official state media sock puppets promptly misplaced their TDS-riddled minds over Trump’s announcement.

Meanwhile, the DMA’s assertion took home the trophy for the most hilarious criticism of all; blaming Trump for run-away crime in Democrat-run cities, while absurdly claiming Democrat-run metropolis governments have introduced crime charges down (emphasis, mine):  

Let’s be clear, crime is down in most major cities, including Washington, DC in spite of Donald Trump, not because of him. While there’s still more work to be achieved, mayors need a federal accomplice who works with them, not against them.

If Trump really cared about lowering crime, he would not have made unprecedented cuts tp public security packages that really work. If Trump really cared about our communities, he’d be working to defend them, not vilifying them. 

But the reality is Trump would not care — he only desires to create yet another political charade to serve his own pursuits and distract Americans from his failures. While Trump might attempt to take credit for the work, Democratic mayors will never stop preventing to defend and strengthen our communities because that’s what they do — they get issues achieved.

Huh? If the above claims have been included in a dystopian fairytale, it could start with “Once upon a dark time, in a lie-filled land far away…”

Where to start with that crock of crap?

First, while crime could be down in some cities, Fox News reported — following Trump’s announcement — that the U.S. in 2020 experienced a surge in violent crime amid widespread protests and riots during the height of the COVID pandemic. FBI data exhibits a almost 30 % increase in murders in contrast to the earlier yr, the biggest single-year increase in homicides since the company began monitoring such crimes.

In the years that have adopted, Washington has been shaken by a wave of shootings that have killed harmless kids, a rise in juvenile carjackings that have sometimes turned deadly, shoplifting incidents, and assaults on authorities workers, summer season interns, and others — including the tragic taking pictures death of 21-year-old congressional intern Eric Tarpinian-Jachym in June.

Second, apparently, whoever wrote the above assertion did not watch Trump’s announcement or read a transcript of it. He said repeatedly that one of his objectives is to defend not only our nation’s capital but also its law-abiding residents. To counsel the president “vilified” either is to inform a bald-faced lie.

Third, it is the Democrat Party, not Donald Trump, that desperately seeks to distract from its depressing failures. Following 4 disastrous years of the Biden-Harris administration, all the Democrats have left is scaremongering themselves foolish about the evils of Trump, in a blatant attempt to deflect from their persevering with failure to suggest critical bipartisan laws to repair the wrongs they created; many of those wrongs, deliberately so.

Fourth, the notion of the Democrats “getting things done” — other than additional dividing America along class and ethnic strains, that is — is past laughable. 

Pitting Americans against their neighbors is hardly getting issues achieved.

Editor’s Note: The days of lawlessness in Washington, D.C. are over. Thanks to President Trump, our nation’s capital will likely be SAFE once again.
