No you aren't lady. I fly back to Philly and Denver multiple times a year. Both have turned to crap in the last 5+ years. Spin the wheel again.

Well good for you ace. In any case, just because parts of San Fran, Philly, Denver, etc. have gotten worse doesn't mean POTUS should send in troops.

Do you really believe 30 days of the Feds is going to end crime in say DC, Philly, or Chicago?

Nope. But I believe stopping it for a time, chasing out the homeless, chasing out the gangs, and giving a foothold to the LEOs before they all try to come back is a good idea.

Love that line. And who are the mayors in most of those big cities in the red states? But yeah, I'd have no problem sending the NG into any large city where gangs/criminals/far left DAs have turn them into disasters. Dems have treated them like an infomercial to set it and forget it. Do I want a police state? No. Do I like what I'm seeing in DC for a limited time? Yeah.

Yeah, a bunch of those are Dems. Still shouldn’t matter if he is being serious about what he is talking about. Memphis is the murder capital of the US, but DC is supposed to be the worst. Like I said, I agree that crime is a real problem in a lot of places, but that isn’t just because Dems hold the office of mayor or DA. Some of their policies are horrible in my view as well, but Trump is not solving the problem by sending in the NG to clean up trash in the park or watching over federal buildings. Give more funds to the police force etc. and go after the criminals in their areas, which are well known by the people that reside there.

Paul Young is a Democrat who runs Memphis. We can pour as much money into those cities as we want but their policies and those of the DAs like the POS in Philly are causing this. Rudy chased the homeless out of NYC and enforced the laws and it got a lot better and stayed that way through Bloomberg. Funny how now it's crap again.

Yeah, sending in the NG isn't a permanent fix, but something has to be done. The people need hope. Maybe the people who reside there will be more likely to help after getting a taste of it. Just pouring more money into it won't fix it. The Dems will take over and turn it to crap again just like NYC.

Where are they chasing them to? It won't work. Just admit the NG in our cities is not the answer to crime.

I agree that some of these leftist policies have not worked in these cities and the people are frustrated. Lowering crime has been a problem forever. Both parties have failed, but you can basically say that worldwide. The homeless is a huge problem in some of these cities. Saw it first hand and there needs to be some other way to solve the problem. The NG isn’t really going to end this issue. It’s a lot harder than just sending in troops for a couple of weeks.

Just pouring in money doesn’t solve it either, agreed. Also agree that it can’t stay this way either, but sending troops isn’t going to end gang violence or solve the homeless problem.

Trumpers still ignore the fact that soldiers are trained for war not law enforcement. The longer this goes on, the more likely it ends very very badly.

This is such a naive take. Where do you "chase" the homeless to?

Where did Rudy send them that worked for over a decade

Not in public working for the gov, no. Happy he is gone. People with that kind of bad judgement should not be making health decisions for our country.

Bad judgement? No idea how you came to that conclusion but you're obviously allowed to be prude

Are you ok with RFK Jr being the secretary of health and human services?

Rudy's program was a seven year program and started with a zero tolerance to any sort of infraction however minor. It wasn't a 30-day action to move out homeless people. The improvement was over time.

Now if Trump had a long term program that was open coordination between the Fed Govt and Big Cities it might include a 30-day Fed presence but it would be part of an overall strategy with the cities doing 98% of the effort over years. It would also be a 30 day period that the cities/states requested.

So just send them to be homeless an hour away instead?

And what is currently happening in DC that is so bad? We send troops in during disasters and riots. Clean up the mess the Dems made.

S'kay buddy, you have once again, as always, passed your weekly loyalty test with flying colors. Inch by inch, there is nothing wrong with attacking the capitol when you lose an election, there is nothing wrong with denying people on american soil due process, there is nothing wrong with militarizing the 20 or so biggest cities, there is nothing wrong with masked law enforcement snatching people off the street.

He asks you to desensitize more and more every week and you willingly shrug off the very morals and humanity you have lived by your entire life. You wire your brain to believe it is the "others" that don't understand why this is and always has been normal.

Right. Tossed them out, let the LEOs get a foothold, zero tolerance. NG to settle things from the start 😌

So you have no interest in an actual solution? You're blaming homelessness on "policy" but your policy is to just make them be homeless where you can't see them?

Homeless are a small fraction of the problem but they can't be at the levels we are seeing.
