Former President Donald Trump made his grand return to the nation’s capital on Tuesday, delivering what was billed as a policy speech to his new think tank that was light on policy and heavy on Trumpian grievance.
Speaking to a friendly crowd gathered at his America First Policy Institute’s inaugural conference, what little time Trump spent on policy was largely devoted to an old idea (executing drug dealers) and a new one (relocating homeless populations to tent cities on the outskirts of metropolitan areas).
“Open up large parcels of inexpensive land in the outer reaches of the cities,” Trump said, describing how he would implement the plan to remove people living in tents.
