US President-elect Donald Trump has released a statement addressing the devastating New Orleans attack that occurred on New Year’s Eve. Trump began by referencing his past claims about the severity of crime committed by individuals entering the country, which he says were initially disputed by Democrats and the media, but have now proven to be true.
Trump also vowed that he would provide full support to the City of New Orleans as they investigate and recover from the attack, which he described as an “act of pure evil”. He expressed his condolences to the victims and their loved ones, as well as to the brave officers of the New Orleans Police Department.
Trump’s statement also touched on the rising crime rate in the country, which he claims has reached unprecedented levels. While his comments have sparked controversy, they reflect the ongoing debate about crime and national security in the United States.
The New Orleans attack, which left multiple people dead and injured, has sent shockwaves across the nation. As the investigation continues, officials are working to determine the motives behind the attack and provide support to those affected.
