Trump to Homeless: Move Out of Washington, DC 'Immediately'

Monday, August 11, 2025

Washington is a federal district rather than a state, it falls under the constitutional authority of Congress rather than a governor, meaning any presidential attempt to take over the city would raise serious constitutional, legal, and political concerns.

President Trump wrote Sunday that homeless people should be moved out of Washington, D.C., "IMMEDIATELY" and relocated "FAR" away, as he hints at more aggressive policing in the nation's capital -- and suggests putting the city under federal control.

Martial law is the wrong way to combat homelessness.

The important takeaway from this is that he and his best friend Epstein raped children.

Gratz Maryland and Virginia!

They are gonna be your problem now.

He obviously is not going to help solve anything. He will just push them over the bridges into Arlington or Maryland.

Nope... right into Prince George County MD or B'Mo.

Fairfax, Alexandria, Arlington, Bethesda, Tyson Corner... too close to his golf course...

nope... south of the beltway.

He doesn't want to be reminded of reality.

Marching them across Key Bridge into Arlington would be so easy. But you are right. He will push them somewhere out of sight.

He doesn't want to help them he just doesn't want to have to see them.

Don't have a problem with this as long as they are provided with food, shelter and a safe place to live.
