But is all that really a federal problem? The Felon is making a show (perception!), but it's not his problem. It's the mayor's of whatever municipality we're talking about (Seattle, DC, SF, Miami, etc). Or, maybe the governor's (except for DC which doesn't have a governor).
I mean - maybe? Washington DC is a federal area. There's a municipal government that exists to provide services and offer some measure of local control (the way that a city in a State would have) - but the actual sovereign governing body of the area is, in fact, the federal government. The federal government sits in the same position to DC as a state government sits in relationship to a city in their state. So while DC doesn't have a governor, the President is in an analogous position.
And obviously the area is the location of tons of institutions and entities that are of national importance in a way that most other cities are not.
