Speaking to the New York Post, President Trump confidently predicted that he would make a competitive run in the traditionally Democratic state of New York in the 2020 election.
Trump noted the soaring rates of violent crime and the high taxes in the state as he asserted that New York City’s “shootings are double, murders, everything has doubled and tripled. And I’ve heard numbers, 244 percent on some kinds of crimes. What is it 277 percent [for shootings]? … I’ll solve the crime problem. I’ll solve their tax problem. I’ll solve all their problems. Who would not vote for me? We’re going to look into SALT; we’re going to look into crime; we’re going to look into all of the things and solve the problems…”
