More than 20 people were reportedly shot this weekend in Chicago.
President Donald Trump posted on social media that 22 people were shot and four people were killed.
Trump slammed Illinois Gov. J.B. Pritzker for ruling over the violent city. Trump could make the Windy City safe again in one year, as he did with Washington D.C., he said.
“Lots of Killing going on in Chicago. 22 people shot, at least 4 Dead. Why isn’t Governor Pritzker calling me for help. I could make Chicago a safe City in ONE MONTH, in ONE YEAR, it would be one of the safest!!! D.C. went from one of the worst, to one of the safest cities in the U.S."
🚨BREAKING: 35 shot, 5 killed, in shootings across Chicago so far this weekend including a huge mass shooting of 13 people on the city's South Side during a Juneteenth celebration.

Former Illinois Gov. Rod Blagojevich said that Pritzker should ask Trump for help.
22 more people shot in Chicago, another 4 dead. If I were still governor, I would immediately take up President Trump‘s offer of help and SAVE BLACK LIVES. Why won’t Pritzker do this?

I am heartbroken by the violence in Princeton Park last night.⁰⁰What should have been a night of celebration and community reflection for Juneteenth was shattered by a horrific act of violence. My thoughts and prayers are with the victims and their loved ones.
