'Mr. President, domestic violence is a crime': Trump gets brutal lesson after shock remark

In President Donald Trump's latest public appearance, he appeared to minimize domestic violence while speaking at the Museum of the Bible, where he was said to be defending his administration's "defense of religious liberty."

Speaking about crime in Washington D.C., which he claimed is "virtually nothing" after flooding the city with National Guard who are largely planting mulch and blowing leaves, Trump weighed in on domestic violence, saying: "Things that take place in the home they call crime ... If a man has a little fight with the wife, they say this is a crime." He then pivoted to saying he wanted to "bring back religion in America."

Trump was immediately schooled on social media over the seriousness of domestic violence. Arizona Attorney General Kris Mayes (D) chimed in, saying on X, "Yes, Mr. President, domestic violence is a crime."

Politico senior columnist Jonathan Martin offered his own Biblical take on Trump's address, writing on X, "Coming spin: Look he was on the Old Testament section of the speech."

"Flashing a green light to all those MAGA guys filled with anger who take it out on their wives," wrote journalist John Harwood on X.

Progressive influencer JoJoFromJerz added, "The dude who bragged about sexual assault and was found liable of sexual abuse says domestic violence isn’t really a crime, does he?"

Attorney John Oleske weighed in on the shocking statement, saying, "The way he talks about DV victims wrecking his stats makes it sound like he thinks they deserve another round when he gets home. The President of the United States is a deranged psychopath."

Author Shannon Watts pointed out Trump's past alleged issues with first wife Ivana, saying, "Man accused of raping his first wife says domestic violence shouldn’t be considered a crime."
