President Donald Trump has called Washington, D.C., council member Janeese Lewis George a “communist” and said he plans to block policies that he argued would weaken public safety and reverse his administration’s efforts to lower crime in the nation’s capital.
In a lengthy post on Truth Social, Trump said he intends to meet with Lewis George and contended that Washington has become safer under his administration. He also pledged to oppose any agenda that he said would weaken immigration enforcement, policing, or the city’s criminal justice system.
