So trump is just admitting his plan to change crime stats in DC to fit his narrative

Anyone gonna call him on it? Trump: "You're gonna see a big change in Washington crime stats very soon. Not the stats they they gave because they turned out to be a total fraud. The real stats. The stats went through the roof. They had a man forced to put out stats like they were doing better. Crime is the worst it's ever been!"

He's lying. He offers no evidence. The stats he calls fraud are from his own Dept. of Justice. He's admitting that he will change the stats to fit the lies he wants to tell. And the press smiles and goes on to the next question.

He's as transparent as a spoiled toddler. Seems like the press would figure it out by now.
