Trump Puts Incoming DC Mayor Janeese Lewis George on Notice, Says He Will Meet With Her But Never Let DC Be “Destroyed by a Communist Adherent”
June 28, 2026
President Trump announced on Sunday that he will meet with the Democratic Nominee for DC Mayor and likely winner of the upcoming election, Janeese Lewis George, but put her and her Communist supporters on notice.
“I will meet with Janeese Lewis George, but must forewarn everyone that Washington, D.C., is again a Safe and Prestigious Community,” the President said.
He further said he will not let his progress in making DC Safe and Beautiful be “destroyed by a Communist adherent who has no intention to, MAKE WASHINGTON GREAT AGAIN!”
As The Gateway Pundit reported, Janeese Lewis George won her Primary Election earlier this month to replace current Mayor Muriel Bowser, who is retiring at the end of her third term in office.
Lewis George will face D.C. Statehood Green Party candidate Robert Gross in November, where she will “almost certainly” win, Trump said.
“Janeese Lewis George, the Communist who is almost certainly going to be elected Mayor of Washington, D.C., has stated that she wants to empty the prisons, make D.C. a Sanctuary City, oppose ICE, welcome Criminal Illegal Aliens back into our beloved Capital, resist Anti-Crime Crackdowns, Defund the Police, continue and expand Cashless Bail, and so many other Capital destroying ‘things,’” Trump wrote in a Truth Social Post on Sunday.
“In the end, it will never work out, nor will I let it even have a chance because I have worked too hard to make Washington, D.C., the Envy of the World, with almost No Crime, and a Beautification process that has been second to none. I will meet with Janeese Lewis George, but must forewarn everyone that Washington, D.C., is again a Safe and Prestigious Community.”
He continued, “Many people, including myself, have worked long and hard to get it there, and we will not let it be destroyed by a Communist adherent who has no intention to, MAKE WASHINGTON GREAT AGAIN!”
President Trump threatened earlier this month to invoke the DC Home Rule Act again if Lewis George won the race.
Asked how he would feel if the Democratic Socialist won her race, Trump said, “I wouldn’t like it.” He continued, “Maybe we’ll take back Washington, run it on a federal basis. We won’t put up with it. We’re not going to lose our businesses.”
Trump previously signed an executive order declaring a “crime emergency” and invoking powers under section 740 of the Home Rule Act to federalize the police last Summer. He also deployed hundreds of federal agents and National Guard troops across the capital.
WATCH:
Meanwhile, Lewis George has vowed to end the DC police’s cooperation with federal immigration authorities and to “defend DC” and “protect” DC’s Home Rule against Trump. She will also work to pass legislation giving DC statehood.
