Donald Trump made tougher crime policies a big part of his campaign. He wants to send immigrants away, bring back "stop-and-frisk", and kill drug dealers. But will these ideas actually work? Experts aren't so sure. They say crime rates go up and down no matter who's in charge. Plus, immigrants don't commit crimes more than anyone else. Some even think Trump's plans could make things worse, like causing chaos in immigrant families.
Crime is complicated, influenced by things like poverty, jobs, health, and even weather. It's not just about who's in the White House. Some think Trump's own legal troubles might make people think it's okay to break the law. Others worry that his plans won't make much difference and could even increase crime by making some people poorer. Police unions like some of Trump's ideas, though, like more money and training for cops. But will all this really make a difference? That's the big question.
