Trump friend ‘now regularly eating out in DC having been too scared beforehand’
Trump claims friend too scared to walk ten blocks now dining out every night thanks to DC takeover
Donald Trump claimed that his friends, who were previously apprehensive about walking in Washington DC, are now frequently dining out.
He attributed this perceived increase in safety to the deployment of the National Guard to the capital for 30 days last week.
Trump cited a friend who now feels 'totally safe' walking a 10-block distance, a route he previously avoided.
However, the article notes that restaurant bookings in Washington DC have plummeted since Trump's federal takeover, contradicting his claims about increased dining out.
