CNN’s MAGA contributor Scott Jennings has been condemned for suggesting he doesn’t care that the people of Washington, D.C., overwhelmingly oppose Donald Trump’s federal takeover of the capital.

“I don’t care what they think. I mean, these are the same people who elected the mayor and city council that ran the city’s public safety into the ground in the first place,” Jennings said during a NewsNight panel discussion. “They don’t know what’s good for them. I do not care one bit.”

NewsNight host Abby Phillip had gone to Jennings for his views after noting a “stark divide” between D.C. residents and the Trump administration, which ordered the federal takeover of the city’s police force and deployed hundreds of National Guard troops to patrol the streets in a bid to reduce crime.
