'He has no standing': Retired Senator Barbara Boxer hits back at Trump after he blamed her assault and robbery in Oakland on 'Democrats destroying our cities with defund the police'
Barbara Boxer on Tuesday night appeared on Erin Burnett's CNN show
The former California senator described being robbed in Oakland on Monday
Donald Trump said 'once great cities' were becoming 'a paradise for criminals, because of Democrats'
Boxer, a Democrat, said that Trump had 'no standing' to comment on the issue because murders and hate crimes increased during his presidency
She called for more community policing and for 'sensible gun laws', but dodged the question of whether she approves of Oakland defunding the police of $18m
Boxer said she is 'thankful that she was not seriously injured'
She also questioned: 'Why would you do this to a grandma?'
Oakland police are offering a $2,000 reward for information leading to an arrest
