Violent Crime Dropped under Trump

Timothy Birdnow

This is what happens when you actually enforce the law.

DOJ Report: Violent, Property Crime Fell in 2025

This happened during the Reagan era too and we saw crime drop quite a bit under Reagan, and it remained down un Bush and Clinton but started ticking back up as the border became unsecure and lots of criminals began coming in.

Now though it sucks to be a violent criminal; you will go to jail and if you are a foreigner get deported to some hellhole country with prisons that are more horrible than anything. So crime has dropped precipitously.

I hope the American People remember this on election day. Being secure in your person and belongings is one of the very core jobs of the government.

FTA:

Violent and property crime victimization rates declined across the United States in 2025, with aggravated assaults falling 31% and motor vehicle thefts dropping 30%, according to a new Justice Department report that the Trump administration cited as evidence of the success of its law-and-order agenda.

Preliminary findings from the Bureau of Justice Statistics show that the violent crime victimization rate, excluding simple assault, fell 25%, from 9.9 victimizations per 1,000 Americans age 12 and older in 2024 to 7.4 in 2025.

Aggravated assaults declined from 4.5 to 3.1 per 1,000 people, while the overall property crime victimization rate dropped 19%, from 138 to 111.2 per 1,000 households.

More good news for America. People just need to give Trump time in getting the war to end and unleashing the amazing power of the engine of the American economy. Right now he's dealing with an existential threat. People need to understand that.

I heard a whiny caller on Glenn Beck's radio show this morning sniveling about the economy.

"I just wish Trump would shore more compassion about the economy and high cost of living" he complained.

Trump isn't a warm fuzzy; he's a pragmatic doer. If you want someone to feel your pain you should vote for Hillary Clinton (well, Bill) but what good does THAT do? Trump was and continues to do something about the problem. He's gone after every and any source of oil to get gas prices down, and he's trying to find alternate sources of goods. It's not his fault we had35 years of globalism where the U.S. got taen advantage of; he's trying now to fix that. Naturally the swindlers are not please their favorite chump is now fighting back. But in the end Trump will prevail as long as wimpy dudes like that caller fail to vote because Trump isn't going around crying with them. We didn't hire him to do that; we hired a shark, not Flipper.

America had better wake up.
