Democrat Governor Tries To Frame Trump
Democrats Resist Federal Help as Crime Soars
Illinois Gov. JB Pritzker (D) is blasting President Trump after reports revealed the White House is preparing to send National Guard troops into Chicago. The move comes as crime continues to surge in Democrat-run cities, leaving families across the nation demanding stronger leadership and real solutions.
Trump Targets Chicago After Success in Washington, D.C.
According to the Washington Post, Pentagon officials have already drawn up plans to deploy several thousand National Guard members to Chicago. This would follow Trump’s earlier decision to federalize Washington, D.C.’s police and send 800 National Guard troops to restore law and order in the capital.
Trump said Friday that once order is restored in one city, his team will move on to the next. He pointed directly at Chicago, calling it “a disaster” under what he described as a completely inept mayor. He added that fixing the city would likely be the next priority — and predicted it “won’t even be difficult” to turn things around.
Pritzker Calls Trump’s Efforts an “Abuse of Power”
Despite widespread concern about violent crime, Gov. Pritzker insists Illinois does not need federal intervention. In a heated thread on X, the Democrat governor claimed:
- Illinois has made “no requests” for help from the Trump administration.
- “No situation currently exists that justifies federal control over the Illinois National Guard.”
- Trump is trying to “manufacture a crisis” and “politicize Americans who serve in uniform.”
Pritzker accused the president of creating “chaos” to distract from tariffs, health care reforms, and other issues.
Law and Order vs. Democrat Chaos
Critics argue that Democrats like Pritzker are ignoring the suffering of ordinary families. Chicago has become a national symbol of urban decline, where failed leadership and soft-on-crime policies leave neighborhoods vulnerable.
Meanwhile, President Trump has made it clear he is determined to restore law and order. By sending the National Guard into cities plagued by violence, Trump is proving he is willing to do what Democrat officials refuse to: put the safety of American citizens first.
The Bigger Picture
For decades, Democrats have promised to fix cities like Chicago, but the results are clear — rising crime, unsafe neighborhoods, and failing leadership. With Trump back in charge, many Americans see a president who is unafraid to confront chaos and bring stability back to America’s streets.
