Trump's Speech Addresses America's Domestic Problems
Monday, 11 August 2025 23:29 WIB | GLOBAL |Amerika

US President Donald Trump, in his speech on Monday night (August 11th), expressed his determination to "liberate" Washington, D.C., from crime, violence, and social problems that he said had been neglected for too long. Trump said he would deploy federal troops to restore security and order to the capital, while ensuring the city is once again safe and orderly for its citizens.

In his speech, Trump also highlighted the growing problem of homelessness in the downtown area. He plans to relocate the homeless to alternative housing outside the core area of Washington, D.C., citing cleanliness, safety, and public comfort. Trump harshly criticized the mayor for failing to address the problem and allowing the city's conditions to deteriorate.

In addition to security issues, Trump also highlighted his success in tightening the border and affirmed his commitment to a stricter legal policy. The speech sparked mixed reactions, with some supporting the tough measures for security reasons, while others criticized them for being too repressive towards vulnerable groups such as the homeless.
