Donald Trump has demanded that the homeless “immediately” move out of Washington, D.C. to make the nation’s capital “more beautiful.”

Trump reiterated his Saturday announcement that he’s set to hold a press conference at the White House on Monday, adding on Truth Social on Sunday that “I’m going to make our Capital safer and more beautiful than it ever was before.”

“The Homeless have to move out, IMMEDIATELY,” he continued. “We will give you places to stay, but FAR from the Capital. The Criminals, you don’t have to move out. We’re going to put you in jail where you belong.”

    How did an allegedly civilized country allow one of the worst people imaginable to become their leader?

      Same way it has happened hundreds of times before. An ant doesn’t know how an ant colony works and it doesn’t realize when its in a death spiral.

      A bunch of racists have decided that they’re fine with the country crashing as long as they get to be racist and hateful to the weak morons who suffer from the disease of empathy…it’s quite unfortunate really.

      I mean also the media owned by billionaires that want to own city states basically fudal times, and with a crooked supreme Court that’s literally taking bribes from billionaires we’re cooked.

    Classic conservative mindset.

    Ignore a problem or demand that it cease to exist instead of figuring out how to solve it.

    Imagine treating people you are supposed to be protecting as head of state this way. Or continuing to support the head of state who does so. This country is disgraceful.

    The criminals, you don’t have to move out. We’re going to put you in jail where you belong.

    Pretext to classify anyone living on the street who refuses to leave DC as a “criminal” and shuffle them off to work camps.

        DC is a blue city. But if they ship them off to New York or Boston or Philly, at least they’ll get public healthcare and better services for the unhoused than are available in DC.

        Edit: but that’s not what’s happening; Trump proposes that the National Guard (now deployed to DC) simply “remove” the unhoused. I’d like to know what the fuck that means.

        It was one thing when Nazi governors were bussing the unhoused to cities that would actually care for them, but it’s quite another thing to deploy the fucking National Guard in an attempt to make the unhoused “disappear“.

        I’d just like to interject for a moment. What you’re referring to as Epstein files, are in fact, Trump/Epstein files, or as I’ve recently taken to calling them, Trump plus Epstein files.

          Let’s get it going. It only took a couple of days for everyone to change from “trump fucks kids” to “trump rapes kids”

          We can make this snowball.

      And then what? If the files contain damming evidence against Trump, what will happen? They aren’t going to remove him from office or prosecute him for his crimes

    I know of one certain house that has plenty of room that could be used to shelter The People. The current occupant is a squatter who has no respect for the rule of law and should be evicted any day now.
