It began with a tweet only a few weeks back. Trump warned Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel to get the black side of his city in order or else.
Chicago murder rate is record setting – 4,331 shooting victims with 762 murders in 2016. If Mayor can't do it he must ask for Federal help!

Only the most non-observant mutant zombie, or equivalent Leftists would ignore what’s been happening in Chicago for so long. And that’s exactly what Barack Obama, Hollyweird, and other inhumane Leftists have done–ignore what’s been happening in Chicago. For decades.
Perhaps these Leftists have been just a bit too preoccupied with tormenting law enforcement.
Emanuel’s office responded to President-elect Trump at the time:
“As the president-elect knows from his conversation with the mayor, we agree the federal government has a strong role to play in public safety by funding summer jobs and prevention programming for at-risk youth, by holding the criminals who break our gun laws accountable for their crimes, by passing meaningful gun laws, and by building on the partnerships our police have with federal law enforcement,” Emanuel spokesman Adam Collins said in a statement.
“We are heartened he is taking this issue seriously and look forward to working with the new administration on these important efforts,” Collins added.
Things are about to get real, as Trump has now issued a new tweet:
If Chicago doesn’t fix the horrible “carnage” going on, 228 shootings in 2017 with 42 killings (up 24% from 2016), I will send in the Feds!

As Jim Hoft of The Gateway Pundit documented, Leftists freaked out. My comments are in bold:
@realDonaldTrump Spoken like a true fascist.

@AustinOnSocial@MikeElgan It’s not illegal, it’s “alternative Constitutional”

And then there were two! Hey Jordan, it’s not “alternative death!”
@realDonaldTrump Republicans spent the last 8 years saying that Obama was going to declare martial law. Then you say this…

Mark, I thought you Leftist were all about, “If it will save just ONE life. I guess #BlackLivesDontMatter?
