Trump vowed that his administration would “liberate our citizens from the crime and terrorism and lawlessness that threatens their communities” and that “the crime and violence that today afflicts our nation will soon, and I mean very soon, come to an end.”

Edit: Sorry, I meant to reply to the original post. I'll just leave it this way.

this petulant child tweeting nonsense.
