President Trump tore into New York City leaders on Monday for painting “Black Lives Matter” on 5th Avenue while shootings skyrocket in the city.

Mayor Bill de Blasio on Thursday helped paint the slogan in front of Trump Tower.

“In one recent week in New York City, this is hard to believe, shootings were up to 358 percent,” Trump said at a White House police appreciation event.

“And yet they spend all their time — they want to do Black Lives Matter signs outside of Trump Tower. They ought to spend their time doing something else because I’ll tell you what, 358 percent increase in shootings in New York.”

Trump added: “Last month over 300 people were shot. NYPD retirements have quadrupled and they’re going up even further. And New York City is out of control unfortunately — my place, I love it, but it’s out of control. It was doing so well.”

Trump praised former Republican mayor Rudy Giuliani’s record. Giuliani, one of Trump’s attorneys, visited the White House on July 1 and told reporters Black Lives Matter is a “Marxist organization” that was “planning to destroy the police for three years.”

“Rudy Giuliani, whether you like Rudy or not, he did a great job. He was the greatest mayor in the history of New York,” Trump said on Monday.

De Blasio, a Democrat, recently agreed to a $1.5 billion NYPD budget cut.

Trump noted an increase in violent crime in other cities, including Chicago and Atlanta, and threatened federal intervention.

“Numbers are going to be coming down even if we have to go in and take over cities because we can’t let that happen,” Trump said.

The president said crime was an important issue in his race against Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden.

“The radical politicians are waging war on innocent Americans. That’s what you’re doing when you play with police. My administration is pro-safety, pro-police and anti-crime,” Trump said.

“Things are happening that nobody’s ever seen happen in cities that are liberally run — I call them radical lib. And yet, they’ll go and march on areas and rip everything down in front of them. If that’s what you want for a country, you probably have to vote for sleepy Joe Biden because he doesn’t know what’s happening. But you’re not going to have it with me.”
