President Trump is finally doing what leaders should do when crime runs wild in our streets. He deployed 800 National Guard troops to Washington DC this week to restore law and order. Democrats are having meltdowns over this common-sense move to protect innocent Americans.
Our nation’s capital has become a dangerous mess under liberal leadership. Crime statistics don’t lie, even when Democrats try to hide them. Trump is taking direct action while his opponents whine about so-called authoritarianism.
The National Guard will work alongside federal law enforcement to bring safety back to DC streets. About 100 to 200 soldiers will be active at any time, helping with everything from logistics to maintaining a visible presence. This is exactly what real leadership looks like.
Trump also took temporary control of DC’s Metropolitan Police Department. The federal government has authority over the District of Columbia, so this move is completely legal. Liberal critics are scrambling to find problems with following the law.
Meanwhile, Hollywood elites like Jimmy Kimmel are threatening to flee the country because Trump won’t let criminals run free. Rosie O’Donnell already moved to Ireland but spends all day watching American news. These celebrities care more about their politics than public safety.
The same approach worked in Los Angeles during recent protests. National Guard troops successfully protected federal property and personnel there. When liberals riot and cause chaos, Trump sends in professionals to restore order.
Democrats like Beto O’Rourke are calling for resistance instead of supporting law enforcement. They would rather see Americans suffer under crime waves than admit Trump’s policies work. Their priorities are completely backwards.
This deployment sends a clear message that Trump puts American safety first. While Democrats make excuses for criminals, our president takes action to protect law-abiding citizens. The contrast couldn’t be more obvious to anyone paying attention.
