Do you really think the democrat mafioso Rahm is concerned about black lives. When he met with trump on Dec 7 all he was interested in illegal immigration. Though we all know in general that democrats really do care about black people.
So, except in the world of overblown left hyperbole, how is Trump's Tweet -- (stating the obvious), somehow "blasting Emanuel?"
Trump's Tweet: 'Chicago murder rate is record setting – 4,331 shooting victims with 762 murders in 2016,' Trump tweeted. 'If Mayor can't do it he must ask for Federal help!'
IMO, this is part of the reason Trump Tweet's -- instead of holding press conferences with a wild-eyed media that is half-crazed by its bias against Trump and the GOP.
46 shootings in Chicago to start off the new year.
The most interesting thing is when Chicagoans will say but "oh, it's only a few neighborhoods and the rest of the city is so safe"
I watched the "60 minutes" special last night on violence in Chicago and why did all these women have baby after baby that just caused them to stay in the ghetto longer.
These women on that show could have moved to a safe, small town gotten a job and a small apartment and lived happily ever after in the 1990s. But they decided to stay in terrible neighborhoods and collect welfare and get pregnant over and over again.
Chicago would be much safer if all these women in the 1990s were not having baby after baby in poverty expecting the government to pay the bill for their lazy lifestyle.
1990s welfare babies are the criminals of today. The last batch of poverty babies born under Obama's lavish welfare benefits package to coax poor poor women into having more babies will be the criminals of the 2030s.
Despite all the violence in Chicago though it is no-where near the worst on a per-capita basis. There are cities that have nearly double the homicide rate of Chicago.

I guess liberals are seeing Chicago as an issue that resolves itself by criminals shooting other criminals and a child that gets shot comes with the territory and liberals couldn't give a damn about that.
The people of Chicago on the other hand are not so smart to vote these liberals out so they seem to be ok with what is going on.
I love how the article stated that "Trump tweeted from his bully pulpit." Funny!!!
So, I wonder what Trump actually means when he says that the Mayor must ask for Federal help? What kind of Federal help? Money, the military? Wonder what he has in mind.
