Trump: “We’re Going To Be Announcing Another City That We’re Going To Very Shortly”
President Donald Trump went out to dinner in Washington, D.C. on Tuesday with Vice President J.D. Vance, Secretary of State Marco Rubio, Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth, and others.
PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP: We wanted to take some of the members of the Cabinet out to dinner to say, and here we are, we’re standing right in the middle of D.C., which as you know about, over the last year was a very unsafe place. Over the last 20 years, actually, it was very unsafe. And now it’s got virtually no crime. We call it crime-free. We’re going to be announcing another city that we’re going to very shortly. We’re working it out. The governor of a certain state would love us to be there. And the mayor of a certain city in that same state would love us to be there. We’ll announce it probably tomorrow. And it’s going to be something we will do like we did here. But this city, here I am standing out in the middle of the street. I wouldn’t have done this three months ago, four months ago. I certainly wouldn’t have done it a year ago. This was one of the most unsafe cities in the country. Now it’s as safe as there is in the country. So we’re here with Cabinet members having dinner and everybody should go out. The restaurants now are booming. People are walking. [PEOPLE WAVE, YELL] Thank you. Thank you. The restaurants now, the restaurants now are booming. People are going out to dinner where they didn’t go out for years. And it’s a safe city. And I just want to thank the National Guard. We loved working with the mayor and the chief. And we all worked together. And the outcome is really spectacular. We have a capital that’s very, very safe right now.
