Trump says troops will be sent to New Orleans

President Donald Trump said he will deploy
troops to New Orleans, the first such deployment
to a Red state.
After his deployment of the National Guard led
to a significant decrease in the crime rate, the president
feels emboldened to recreate his strategy in
other cities around the country. While he has floated
Chicago and New York City as his next top targets,
both in heavily Blue states, he’s now expanding
his plan to Blue cities in solidly Red states.
Speaking at a renovated Rose Garden on Friday
night, Trump began by deriding the crime situation
in Chicago.
