特朗普在社交媒体平台上宣布，他将于周一上午10点举行新闻发布会，讨论华盛顿特区的犯罪问题
总统表示，他已经给了华盛顿市长穆里尔·布瑟一个降低犯罪率的机会，但是犯罪已经变得越来越严重。
“华盛顿市长穆里尔·布瑟是一个好人，她已经尝试过了，但她被给予了很多机会，犯罪数字变得更糟，这个城市只会变得更脏，更没有吸引力。美国公众不会再忍受了，”特朗普在他的帖子中说。
与总统的说法相反，华盛顿大都会警察局今年迄今的初步犯罪率比较显示，自去年以来，华盛顿特区的犯罪率下降了7%，暴力犯罪下降了26%，财产犯罪下降了5%。
“我会照顾好我们珍惜的首都，我们会让它真正地再次变得伟大!在没有帐篷、肮脏、污秽和犯罪之前，它是世界上最美丽的首都。很快又会是那样，”特朗普写道。
Trump to hold Monday news conference on DC crime
Trump announced on his social media platform that he’ll hold a news conference at 10 a.m. Monday to discuss crime in Washington, D.C.
The president said that he has given D.C. Mayor Muriel Bowser an opportunity to reduce crime rates but crime has gotten worse.
"The Mayor of D.C., Muriel Bowser, is a good person who has tried, but she has been given many chances, and the Crime Numbers get worse, and the City only gets dirtier and less attractive. The American Public is not going to put up with it any longer," Trump said in his post.
Contrary to the president's claim, Washington’s Metropolitan Police Department’s preliminary year-to-date crime rate comparison shows that crime in D.C. has decreased by 7% since last year, with violent crime down 26% and property crime reduced by 5%.
“I will take care of our cherished Capital, and we will make it, truly, GREAT AGAIN! Before the tents, squalor, filth, and Crime, it was the most beautiful Capital in the World. It will soon be that again,” Trump wrote.
