Because he's targeting only the blue cities with majority black and/or Hispanic people. Not the Republican run cities with even worse crime rates. That's pretty bad even by Trump standards.



How many people complaining about this live in the city but east of the park?

Many of us have had it with the homeless and teens in hoodies and masks when it’s 100 degrees.


I live east of the park and am complaining. National guard troops don’t solve homelessness or broken homes? Can people stop being stupid just for once???!!


+1 Ward 4 EOTP here and Trump deploying the National Guard is a much bigger threat to our safety than teenagers. He is pushing the envelope further and further and we will not recognize America when he's done.

I'm a DC resident and watched stunned last year at lunch hour as a carful of youths jumped out with hammers to smash the windows of the Tiny Jewel Box and grabbed 9 Rolex watches. I don't think they were ever caught and TJB no longer displays jewelry or watches in their windows.

Part of me would like to see a more proactive police force, but Trump's plan is a temporary bandaid at best. For 30 days the kids will stay away from the tourist areas (and these agents will have nothing to do patrolling there). Meanwhile the turnstile jumping, vandalism, car racing, shoplifting in high crime areas where these kids live will continue full force (I see it every day on Minnesota Ave).

Better would be using the FBI to help DC SOLVE crimes, like my neighbor who was shot dead while riding his bike home from work at 11:30 PM for no discernable reason and police have no suspect. FBI patrolling the streets is a waste of their time and our money.

I think this is great.

I frequently go to DC in the evenings, and I am thrilled about this. Lots of areas have felt unsafe, and many friends have been ruffed up near the Stadiums.


Please return to the DCUM narrative. This is your only warning.

I feel bad for metro police having to become subservient to the pedo captain. Those officers have kids, too, and now they have to take orders from him?

Especially any that are from DC.

I’m hoping the National Guard will move all the homeless to Ward 3 and the suburbs.

I’d like the national guard deployed everywhere, in cities, suburbs, and rural areas. Crime is everywhere in this country, and having tanks roll down Main Street USA is exactly what is needed.

Trump Orders National Guard to Washington, D.C., and Takeover of City’s Police
President Trump said 800 National Guard troops would be assigned to the nation’s capital, and that the approach might be expanded to other cities. His description of crime in Washington did not match official statistics.

In decrying crime as out of control in cities across the country, he listed familiar targets like New York, Los Angeles and Chicago but did not mention cities in Republican-led states with the highest murder rates: Memphis, St. Louis or New Orleans. He also ignored the most violent episode in Washington’s recent history: the Jan. 6, 2021, riot as the Capitol, where his supporters sought to stop the certification of the 2020 election he lost. Mr. Trump pardoned hundreds of rioters, many of whom had already been convicted of crimes and were serving sentences before being immediately released in January.


Do you not see the other three threads on this already?


T D S on steroids.

Just like DOGE wasn't about saving money, this isn't about safety.

Trump rapes kids and wants a cover.
