Trump claims it’s safe to go for dinner in DC again since he called in the National Guard
Trump claims Democrats are calling him to say it's finally safe to got to dinner in DC as restaurant bookings plunge
Donald Trump claimed that Democrats were contacting him to express gratitude for making Washington DC safe for dining out.
Trump asserted that restaurants in the city had experienced increased business over the past two days, speaking alongside Volodymyr Zelensky.
These claims were made following Trump's order last week to deploy the National Guard and take control of Washington DC's police force for 30 days.
Trump stated his actions were intended to 'rescue our nation’s capital from crime'.
However, research from Open Table revealed that restaurant attendance in Washington DC had plummeted by up to 31% since the deployment of federal troops.
