As President Trump made the case for militarizing the streets of Washington, he used pictures of “homegrown terrorists” to illustrate his point that crime in the nation’s capital was out of control.
“Look at these people here,” Mr. Trump said at a news conference last week, flipping through a handout from the White House containing five mug shots, all people of color.
“They will never be an asset to society,” he said. “I don’t care. I know we all want to say, ‘Oh, they’re going to be rehabbed.’ They’re not going to be rehabbed.”

Mr. Trump, himself a felon, has shown particular leniency to criminals he seems to identify with — people who are white or wealthy, or who he believes have been unfairly persecuted, or who rioted in his name on Jan. 6, 2021.
The White House defends the president’s actions, pointing to his criminal justice record from his first term, which included signing prison overhaul legislation aimed at rehabilitation and using his clemency powers to release many Black offenders who faced excessive punishments for nonviolent crimes.
But in his second term, Mr. Trump has seized on racial tensions to further his longstanding view that cities are hopelessly dirty, violent and menaced by criminals. In addition to the District of Columbia, Mr. Trump characterized other cities, which have Black, Democratic mayors, in incendiary terms.
Chicago, he said, was “very bad.” Baltimore and Oakland were “so far gone.”
“When you look at what he’s doing, it’s very much selective criminality,” said Carl W. Tobias, a professor at the University of Richmond School of Law. “A lot of this is the ongoing racialization of crime. It’s not an accident that all the cities he’s thinking about targeting have either immigrants or they have Black mayors. It’s just so obvious.”
Harrison Fields, a White House spokesman, said that the president and his administration were not “cherry-picking” criminals to expose, including the ones featured in the handout, but rather were addressing a reality in the Black community.

Since taking office, Mr. Trump has shown a pattern of characterizing defendants of color, in particular, as deserving the harshest punishments possible, while showing deference to others, including those who align more with his beliefs.
On his first day, Mr. Trump pardoned thousands of his supporters who were arrested and charged for taking part in a violent mob at the Capitol, assaulting the police, smashing windows, ransacking offices and threatening to hang his vice president. Some had prior criminal records, for offenses like rape, manslaughter and possession of child sexual abuse material, according to an investigation by NPR. “They’ve already been in jail for a long time,” the president said. “These people have been destroyed.”…

And in his first term, Mr. Trump took a starkly different view of white and Black protesters.
In 2017, the president defended white nationalists who marched in Charlottesville, Va., to protest the removal of Confederate statues. Some of them chanted antisemitic and Nazi rhetoric in the face of counterprotests, but Mr. Trump referred to “some very fine people on both sides.”
In 2020, amid protests over the death of George Floyd, a Black man who died under the knee of a white police officer, Mr. Trump called for “law and order” and asked his top national security officials whether he could order that demonstrators be shot in the legs.
Inimai Chettiar, a longtime criminal justice advocate who supported Mr. Trump’s prison reform agenda, said that the president’s actions in Washington reflected a common dynamic in tough-on-crime tactics that often target Black and brown communities.
“I think that this is a typical pattern that politicians, especially white politicians, fall into,” she said. “They view certain people as deserving and others as not.”
But she said sending the National Guard to the streets of Washington was excessive.
“The Trump administration is trying to manufacture a domestic enemy in Black and brown people,” she said….
