OrangeVerse XLV: Cities and Their State

The president chatted with his Number Two, Tucker Carlson, the other night - Sean Hannity must have been off working on policy papers with Jared, or something.

Carlson got things going,talking about cities they'd seen on the trip to the G-20, with no graffiti, no one going to the bathroom on the street, no junkies. And how that was "very different" from our cities. The president corrected him, saying "some of our cities." Carlson and Trump agreed it was "sad" about cities like New York, San Francisco,  and Los Angeles.

And it is - there's no question about that. We do have issues with homelessness, and drugs, in many cities large and small, in the suburbs, and perhaps even more critically, in rural areas where there are even fewer services available than in our cities.

Where it got poetic, though, was when the president ruminated on why it is that American cities have this kind of issue.

It's On Me
It's a phenomena 
that started two yeas ago.
It's disgraceful.

Seriously Maybe Important
I'm gonna maybe
and I'm looking at it
very seriously,
we're doing some
other things
as you've probably noticed
like some of the
Very Important Things
we're doing now.

Can't Have That
But we're looking at it
Very Seriously
because you can't do that. 
You can't have what's happening
where Police Officers are
getting sick by
just walking the beat.
I mean
they're actually
Getting. Very. Sick.

In Sickness and Mental Health
Where people are getting sick
where the people are
living in hell, too.
Although some of them
have mental problems
where they don't even know
they're living that way.
In fact, perhaps,
they like living that way.

Oh Wait - Maybe It's Not On Me?
They can't do that.
We cannot ruin our cities.
And you have people
that work in those cities.
They work in office buildings
and to get into the building
they have to walk through a scene
that nobody would have believed
possible three years ago.
And this is the liberal establishment.

Fight. Fight. Fight
This is what I'm fighting.
They - I don't know
if they're afraid of votes? 
I don't know 
if they really believe
this should be taking place.
But it's a terrible thing
that's taking place. 

The Situation Room
And we maybe
you know - I had a situation
when I first became president.
We had certain areas of
Washington DC where
that was starting to happen
and I ended it
Very Quickly. 
I said "you can't do that"
when we have leaders of the world
coming in to see the president
and they're riding down a highway
they can't be looking at that. 
I really believe
it hurts our country.

The West Coast Has The Sunshine
San Francisco, I own
property in San Francisco
so I don't care except
that it was
so beautiful.
And now areas
that you used to think of being,
so, you know, being really
Something Very Special,
you take a look
at what's going on
with San Francisco it's terrible. 

Checking Our Equipment
So we're looking at it
Very Seriously
We may intercede.
We may do something
to get that whole thing
cleared up. 
It's inappropriate.
We have to take the people
and do something.
We have to do something.
And you know
we're not really very equipped
as a government
to be doing that kind of work.
That's not really
the kind of work
the government should be doing.
We've never had this
in our lives before
in our country. 

Nope, Definitely Not On Me!
At the same time
most of our cities
are doing great.
But if you look at
some of these,
they are usually sanctuary cities
run by Very Liberal People
and the states are
run by Very Liberal People.
