Former president has threatened to use presidential powers to seize control of cities.

Mayors and prosecutors in several US cities are collaborating over strategies to minimize the fallout.

Trump provoked uproar earlier this week when he called for US armed forces to be deployed against his political rivals “the enemy within” on election day next month .

Trump said he would be much more aggressive in pursuing cities in a second term.

He told a rally in Davenport , Iowa , last year that he would not wait to be invited in by mayors or governors.

Trump ’s plans to deploy forces inside the cities depends upon his ability to bypass constitutional limits that generally forbid the military to be used in domestic law enforcement.

A report by the thinktank Third Way has found that for 23 consecutive years the murder rate has been higher in Republican states that have voted for Trump than in Democratic states.

Philadelphia homicides are down by more than 40% in Philadelphia this year , Krasner said.

“The policies that Trump represents everybody should have a gun, mass incarceration is good, mass incarcerations are good, more division between rich and poor get your ass killed in Republican States”.
