Donald Trump has demanded that the homeless “immediately” move out of Washington, D.C. to make the nation’s capital “more beautiful.”

Trump reiterated his Saturday announcement that he’s set to hold a press conference at the White House on Monday, adding on Truth Social on Sunday that “I’m going to make our Capital safer and more beautiful than it ever was before.”

“The Homeless have to move out, IMMEDIATELY,” he continued. “We will give you places to stay, but FAR from the Capital. The Criminals, you don’t have to move out. We’re going to put you in jail where you belong.”

    Classic conservative mindset.

    Ignore a problem or demand that it cease to exist instead of figuring out how to solve it.

      Conservatives don’t like what they don’t understand. Much easier to get mad at the problem than to figure out how to solve it

      What’s the last time a Conservative has solved any problem? Seriously, my entire lifetime I can’t think of a single thing where I’m like “Ah, good this conservative fixed this…”

        I have one example, and it was the Conservative premier from Ontario who finally got rid of the single-family home only zoning restrictions. Unfortunately for conservatives that’s not exactly a right-wing policy and he likely only did it because he is corrupt as hell and developers wanted to increase density to make more money(whatever gets us there, I guess). I also haven’t looked into it and it could be very badly done, plus the amount of horrid shit he’s done really kinda does not makenit worth it.

        Basically, when they’re paid off by special interests and do things uncharacteristic of right-wing policy then things go ok. Hardly a ringing endorsement.
