Vice President JD Vance said this week that President Donald Trump’s deployment of the National Guard to assist Washington, D.C.’s Metropolitan Police Department has put Democrats in the position of defending rising violent crime in the capital.
Speaking at an event in La Crosse, Wisconsin, Vance said Democrats have increasingly opposed the administration’s law enforcement actions, even as major U.S. cities continue to struggle with crime.
“Is Milwaukee a super safe city right now? It has some crime problems. It’s a beautiful city. There are a lot of incredible, hard-working people who live there,” Vance said.
“But let’s be honest, Milwaukee has had some crime problems. Chicago … has had a lot of crime problems.”
