Trump Visits Bodega Where Clerk Was Hit With Murder Charge For Stabbing An Ex-Con In Self-Defense!
Former President Donald Trump made a post-court visit Tuesday to the Manhattan bodega where clerk Jose Alba infamously stabbed an ex-con to death in self-defense two years ago — a case that drew widespread outrage after he was initially charged with murder — with the city native vowing to “straighten New York out.”
The Republican presidential contender stopped by the Sanaa Convenient Store, formerly known as the Blue Moon Convenient Store, in Harlem to meet with the store’s co-owner Maad Ahmed and small business advocate Francisco Marte.
“You should be allowed to have a gun. If you had a gun, you’d never get robbed, you’d never get robbed, that would be the end of it,” Trump told the bodega workers.
Ahmed told the former president that the store is still grappling with rampant crime — which appeared to shock the law-and-order politician.
“What do you do? Isn’t it crazy? Is it almost a way of doing business, you getting robbed?” Trump asked. Posted By Ghost
