The Trump aide argued that cities with high crime rates, like Chicago, should take more federal assistance. "The derelict mayor of Chicago should step up and ask for help because she's doing a very poor job of securing her streets," McEnany said. This came after McEnany dodged questions about President Donald Trump's refusal to acknowledge that Black Americans are killed at much higher rates by police than white people. Instead, she pointed to evidence that Black people are much more likely to be victims of all kinds of homicide."Hey, Karen. Watch your mouth," she tweeted, using the popular term to refer to entitled, racist white women.
