President Trump is keeping our nation’s capital safe while liberal politicians throw tantrums. The D.C. National Guard will stay deployed through November 30 to protect hardworking Americans and visitors. This is exactly the kind of strong leadership we need in dangerous times.
The original 30-day deployment was set to end on September 10, but smart military leaders know the job isn’t done yet. Brigadier General Leland Blanchard made the right call to extend the mission. He said everyone walking the streets deserves to be safe, and he’s absolutely right.
Liberal D.C. officials are furious about having real security in their city. The district actually sued the Trump administration over the National Guard deployment. These same politicians who let crime run wild are now complaining about protection for innocent people.
D.C. Attorney General Brian Schwalb whined that using the military violates American democracy. This is the same backwards thinking that has turned many Democrat cities into crime-ridden disaster zones. Law and order isn’t the enemy of democracy – it protects democracy.
Mayor Muriel Bowser claimed the city doesn’t need federal help or a presidential emergency. Tell that to the victims of crime who would still be alive if she had done her job. Her failed leadership is exactly why federal intervention became necessary.
The White House made it clear that President Trump cares about long-term safety for D.C. residents and visitors. Unlike weak Democrat leaders, Trump actually follows through on protecting Americans. This is what real presidential leadership looks like.
Some reports suggest the extension helps National Guard members get important benefits like housing allowances and healthcare. This shows Trump cares about our brave service members while also keeping communities safe. Democrats only care about political games.
The difference between Trump’s approach and Democrat failures is night and day, just like the police union chairman said. While liberals complain and file lawsuits, conservatives take action to protect innocent Americans. This is why we need strong Republican leadership at every level of government.
