Trump is proposing sending National Guard troops to big cities like Chicago to deal with the out-of-control crime in the Democrat-run cities.
According to the End of Day Report from Gary Bauer, at least four people were murdered and 19 others were wounded in Chicago this past weekend. But more than 1,000 criminals have been arrested, 111 illegal guns have been apprehended, and Washington, D.C. has achieved 12 days without a homicide since the National Guard was deployed in the city.
Trump’s proposal hopes to replicate the results in Chicago’s crime-ridden streets. However, as expected, Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson, who has an approval rating of 26%, has rejected the idea. He has threatened to take legal action if the president deploys National Guard troops to the Windy City.
AFN reported previously that Johnson called sending in the National Guard “uncoordinated, uncalled-for, and unsound” in retaliation to President Trump calling him “grossly incompetent.”
Bauer is chairman of the Campaign for Working Families. He says the socialists and neo-Marxists who control today's Democrat Party continue to fall on their swords for all the wrong people.
"The president has repeatedly said he wants to help, and instead of Democrat mayors and other elected officials saying we understand there's a problem, they not only turned him down, but they won't even acknowledge they have a problem,” says Bauer. “And then they call him a Nazi for wanting to protect the minority citizens of their cities from criminals.”
Furthermore, Bauer cannot find the logic in their thinking.
“I'm beginning to wonder if there was something in the Covid vaccine that sent all these Democrats into massive losses of IQ points," he said.
Bauer suggests that maybe it's time for Chicago's residents to "rise up" against Mayor Johnson's incompetence.
