Former President Donald Trump, campaigning in Erie Pennsylvania on Sunday, said crime would end if the nation "let the police do their job."
"Now, if you had one really violent day, like a guy like Mike Kelly, put him in charge. Congressman Kelly, put him in charge for one day. Mike would you say, right here, he's a great congressman, would you say, Mike, that if you were in charge you would say, oh, please don't touch them. Don't touch them. Let them rob your store. All these stores go out of business, right? They don't pay rent. The city doesn't have the whole. It's a chain of events. It's so bad. One rough hour, and I mean real rough. The word will get out and it will end immediately. End immediately. You know? It will end immediately."
