No. It’s not. See inside…


Below is a screen capture from the FBI website. The link to the interactive chart is below. It shows that violent crime initially trended down during Trump’s term before spiking in his last year, 2020, including the largest one year jump in homicides since the FBI began tracking them. Since Biden took office violent crime has trended down from there every year. The chart has not been updated by the FBI for 2023, but crime decreased that year from the previous one as detailed in this article:

https://www.pbs.org/newshour/nation/fbi-data-shows-that-violent-crimes-in-the-u-s-decreased-in-2023#:~:text=Murders%20dropped%2013%20percent%20in,overall%20was%20down%206%20percent.

So no, it’s not difficult to find this information but you apparently haven’t even bothered to try, because it shows exactly the opposite of what you’re claiming. Crime isn’t up from where it was under Trump. It’s not only significantly down from his final year, but in 2023 was lower than
Trump’s best year, 2019. So you’re either 1) making a completely baseless and ignorant claim based on nothing but your mindless hyper-partisanship or 2) you’re a liar. My money’s on number 1, and it’s because you’ve been repeatedly lied to by whatever “news” sources you frequent and you very badly want to believe the lies, so you don’t fact check them. The sad thing is, this utter beat down of your patently false claim won’t motivate you at all to educate yourself with data from credible sources instead of believing what some hack “journalist” on NewsMax or whatever tells you, because you’re just not interested in the truth.
