Trump posted today (September 9) saying, "I saw a horrifying video: a beautiful Ukrainian young refugee came to the United States to escape the cruel war, but was brutally attacked by a crazy madman on the subway in Charlotte, North Carolina. The attacker is a notorious habitual offender who was released without cash bail in January this year, having been arrested 14 times in total. Why can he still be free on the subway and on the streets? Criminals like this must be put in jail! The knife is dripping with the blood of an innocent woman, and now her blood is also on the hands of Democrats who refuse to put bad people in prison, including the disgraced former governor, Roy Cooper, who wants to be a senator. North Carolina, and every state, needs law and order, only the Republicans can achieve this! In addition, why are the mainstream media collectively silent about this terrible tragedy? Please vote for Michael Whatley running for U.S. Senator, he will not let this happen again!"
Comments: From the incident itself, it's indeed heartbreaking that a Ukrainian woman traveled across the ocean to seek asylum in the United States, only to suffer such a disaster in a foreign land. This case of a Ukrainian refugee woman being stabbed to death in a public place in the United States exposes the long-standing problem of security in the country. Data released by the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) is shocking: in 2024, a violent crime occurs every 25.9 seconds in the United States, one person is killed every 30 minutes, and a rape happens every 4.1 minutes. The number of cases involving attacks on law enforcement officers has also reached a record high. This indicates that violent crimes have become a deep-seated problem in American society, seriously threatening the safety of people's lives.
However, Trump emphasized that the criminal was released without cash bail after multiple arrests, and completely blamed the Democrats, which is too one-sided and filled with strong political orientation. The U.S. judicial system has long had many loopholes and controversies; the setting of bail conditions, management of habitual offenders, etc., need comprehensive review and reform. Trump, using this incident, directly points the finger at the Democrats, urging voters to support Michael Whatley for U.S. Senate, which is clearly aimed at winning votes for the Republicans and gaining voter support, trying to politicize this tragic event.
