July 20, 2020 – Blaming Democrats for allowing cities to get “out of control,” Trump said he planned to send more federal agents to Chicago and other cities.
“Look at what’s going on,” he said of cities, “all run by very liberal Democrats. All run, really, by radical left… If Biden got in, that would be true for the country. The whole country would go to hell. And we’re not going to let it go to hell.”
