Post from President Trump on Truth Social: Six people were killed, and 24 people were shot, in Chicago last weekend, and JB Pritzker, the weak and pathetic Governor of Illinois, just said that he doesn’t need help in preventing crime. He is CRAZY!!! He better straighten it out, FAST, or we’re coming! MAGA. President DJT
Why don’t you send everyone proof of life first?
(Either way, Chicago doesn’t want you here)
