Homeless has only been a problem for 2 years
After the president mildly protested that only “some of our cities” are like that, the Fox News star said that New York City, San Francisco and Los Angeles all “have a major problem with filth.”
“Why is that?” Carlson wondered aloud.
“It’s a phenomenon that started 2 years ago,” Trump declared. “It’s disgraceful. I'm going to maybe—I am looking at it very seriously.”
After seemingly claiming homelessness in America only arose 24 months ago, the president went on to suggest that police officers are getting sick simply by walking near homeless people—likely referencing reports that some Los Angeles police officers have shown signs of typhoid fever. The officers all work in a precinct that was recently fined for unsanitary working conditions.
“You can’t have what’s happening—where police officers are getting sick just by walking the beat,” he exclaimed. “I mean, they’re getting actually very sick, where people are getting sick, where the people living there are living in hell, too."
While stating that mental illness is part of the reason for homelessness, Trump went on to blame the “liberal establishment” for exacerbating the problem before claiming he “ended it very quickly” in Washington, D.C. when he became president.

News frash: The president is a paste-eating windowlicker

I'm sure Trump is referring to the sudden proliferation of homeless camps on the coasts, which began in earnest about 2-3 years ago. And he's talking about addressing it. You don't see him blaming other presidents or other scapegoats.
I remember when George W Bush was in office, and the media talked about the growing homeless problem. Then Obama was in office and all that talk went silent. Trump comes in and the talk starts up again. So you have an agenda at work there.
In any event, we (as a society) have a true problem of which the root is drug abuse and perhaps mental illness. I hope Trump does try to address it in a pragmatic way. -

The homeless problem is predominantly in dem run cities. In the case of Portland you have uber liberals supporting their homelessness so it has grown exponentially. Same with LA.allpurpleallgold said:

Blaming this on Trump is only something a non-thinking liberal can do. A liberal who needs to switch the blame so they don't feel bad about their own fuckups. -
Homelessness goes up under republican president. Goes down under a Democrat. Goes up under a republican. Blame democrats.
Any way you can work antifa into your argument? That would really put a bow on it. -
So Portland and Seattle's homeless problem is due to Trump? Did I get that right because this homeless problem pre-dates him and it coincides with decisions local governments have made to provide free food, free healthcare, free shelter during the winter months, free needles, free phones, etc.
Only in a libs fantasy land brain does it make sense to ignore their own politicians horrible decision making and the resulting disaster and blame others. WTF is wrong with you people. Take ownership. You should be proud of how Seattle, Portland and downtown LA look right? I mean, you have created it, done nothing to fix it and have forced it on everyone who lives there right? Be proud, you got your way. They are hell holes, cheer it from the highest roof tops, don't go blaming someone else for your blind following of shitting liberal politicians. Be an adult. -

What are you and the TDS Army blaming Trump for now? The opiod epidemic? Amazon driving up housing costs?
The real question is this: Is there anything bad happening that Trump isn't responsible for? -

Reporting on homelessness goes up under GOP President
Homelessness goes up in democrat cities thanks to democrat policies -

It's just like KIA reporting. As soon as Bush left office and Obama took over the left was no longer interested in news about our troops being killed.RaceBannon said:Reporting on homelessness goes up under GOP President

Homelessness has been a problem in SF since the late 1980s. It has exploded in the last 3-4 years due primarily to liberal policies -
@DerekJohnson I know you are smarter than that.... If you think homeless is talked about during Trump, bashing liberal cities, is a liberal media issue....

The article I linked even stated that homelessness is down in Washington DC and gave credit to Trump.
The only agenda at work is painting liberal cities as full of homeless and shitting on the streets. -

And as Hondo told us, he went to San Francisco with his “boy” and he didn’t see any shit in the streets therefore this was nothing but a right wing news story to make liberal cities look bad. -

Nah. It's just a lot worse in liberal cities, and worsening every day, flirting with breakouts of ancient diseases and even the plague. Doubt you'll ever see that in Spokey, Bwaze or Missoula.2001400ex said:
