Here’s what gets me—these politicians sit in their fancy offices with armed guards and gated communities. They tell us crime isn’t that bad. They say we’re overreacting. Ever wonder why they don’t care about the chaos destroying our cities?
Well, what happens when crime finally reaches them? When the bubble pops and reality punches them in the face—literally? You’d think they’d wake up. But nope. Their ideology matters more than their own safety. And definitely more than yours.
Democrats Resist Trump’s Crime Crackdown
Minnesota Representative Angie Craig is running for Senate now. And she’s mad about President Trump sending the National Guard to clean up Washington, D.C. She posted on X that “President Trump’s actions are totally unjustified and a waste of taxpayer dollars.”
She wants to stop Trump from doing something but the massive crime problem in D.C. Yet she has seen firsthand howe bad things have become in our nation’s capital. How do we know that? Because she was assaulted once, in her own home. Now, she is hiding that fact from the public.
From Daily Wire:
Minnesota Representative and Democratic Senate candidate Angie Craig condemned President Donald Trump’s crackdown on crime in Washington, D.C., although she once swore to put a man who assaulted her in her D.C. apartment behind bars.
But Craig was not opposed to cleaning up the city streets when she was assaulted in an elevator of her own apartment complex by a homeless man who was reportedly acting like he was on drugs.
In February 2023, Craig reported seeing a man, who was later identified as 26-year-old Kendrick Hamlin, in the lobby area of her apartment building “acting erratic,” as if he was under the influence of an unknown substance, The Daily Wire reported.
When Crime Hits Home
Here’s the kicker—Craig herself was violently attacked in her own D.C. apartment building. February 2023. A homeless guy named Kendrick Hamlin followed her into an elevator. The man was high on something, acting crazy. She fought back and escaped. Good for her. She even promised “to do everything in my power to make sure there is not a 14, a 15, a 20.” Wait, what? Fourteen? Twenty? What’s she talking about?
You can’t make this stuff up. Craig was victim number THIRTEEN. This guy attacked twelve people before her. Twelve! And here’s the really insane part—he never served more than 30 days in jail. Not once.
The soft-on-crime system Democrats created let this predator roam free. Attack after attack. No consequences. And when cops finally arrested him for attacking Craig? He assaulted them too.
Now he’s serving 27 months. That’s it. For thirteen assaults. He’ll probably get out early for “good behavior.”
Listen to what the National Republican Senate Committee said about this. It’s perfect: “It’s hypocritical and shameful for Congresswoman Craig, a DC crime victim who experienced a traumatic assault, to oppose efforts to ensure what happened to her doesn’t happen to anyone else.”
Thirteen Victims, Zero Accountability
Exactly right. Craig admits the system failed. She knows firsthand that criminals run wild in D.C. She promised to stop future victims. But when Trump actually does something about it? She calls it “unjustified.”
Make it make sense. You can’t.
This is your Democrat Party, people. They cry about their own suffering. They demand justice when they’re the victim. But when it comes to protecting you? Sorry, that would be mean to the criminals.
Craig said her attack was “a pivotal moment” in her life. Said it took six months to mentally recover. I believe her. It sounds terrifying. But apparently not terrifying enough to support keeping other Americans safe.
Trump’s doing what needs to be done. He’s taking over D.C.’s crime problem because Democrats won’t. Every American deserves to walk down the street without fear. Not just congresswomen. Not just the elite. Everyone.
But Democrats like Craig? They’d rather virtue signal than protect victims. Even when they ARE the victims.
Key Takeaways
- Rep. Craig opposes Trump’s D.C. crime crackdown despite being violently assaulted there
- Her attacker had 12 prior victims but never served more than 30 days
- Democrats prioritize criminal sympathy over victim protection, even their own
- Trump’s federal takeover addresses the crime crisis Democrats created and ignore
