Trump Pledges to Address Blue City Crime Before World Cup Matches [WATCH]

Trump says don’t worry.

While attending the FIFA World Cup draw at the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts in Washington, D.C., President Trump was asked about crime in cities hosting matches.

11 U.S. cities are expected to host FIFA World Cup matches, including Atlanta, Los Angeles, Philadelphia, San Francisco, and New York.

But Trump isn’t worried about Blue City crime rates.

“Do you have concerns about crime in American cities? Some of the cities that will be hosting — have they remedied that for you?” Trump was asked at Friday’s drawing.

“If they do have a problem by the time they get there, we can solve that problem … if they have a problem, hopefully they will let us know that, and we can solve any problem,” Trump said.

“President Trump is very concerned about some of these blue cities, high crime rates, and he’s talking to FIFA,” Chief of Protocol Monica Crowley said during an interview with Fox Business.

“No decisions have been made, but he wants to make sure that all foreign visitors, as well as American fans, are well-protected as they go to enjoy these world-class sporting events in America,” she added.
