Claimant: Donald Trump (R)
Claim: His administration achieved the largest recorded drop in violent crime and got “most” hardcore criminals out of the country.
Rating: MOSTLY FALSE
Explanation: The 2024-to-2025 declines in violent crime and murder were the largest one-year drops in available FBI data, but crime had already been declining for several years. Researchers also found no clear evidence that increased immigration enforcement caused the decline or that “most” hardcore criminals were removed from the country.
