The President can’t deploy the military you into a state or city without permission of the mayor or GovNo one in DC Metro, nor in the Capitol, can call up the DC National guard. The DCNG is under the full control and authority of the President of the U.S. All other State National Guard, the Governor of each state has full Authority.
Paperwork kiddo.... government bureaucracy..... The order for the DCNG to be called up, comes from the President, or from his designee..... There would be an order for it, for it to happen.
Allegedly, in a phone convo about something else with his admin, Trump allegedly made a 10 second comment about wanting his protester rally goers at the Ellipse, to be safe etc
Really? That's what you call Trump ordering 10,000 or 20,000 National Guard Troops? Seriously?
Dc national guard has less than 1500 men. Where did the Tens of thousands of other guards he allegedly wanted come from? Was there a request for the surrounding States for their guard and those governors agreed to send them?
Why would the capitol police and Pelosi and McConnell sergeant of arms make a decision about the National guard needed to protect Trump followers at the Ellipse, two miles away from the Capitol?
Why did Trump, illegally send his followers narching to the Capitol, when he asked for no permits for the march nor permits for a protest at the capitol? Why did he want and request his rally organizers to keep it a secret, until he announced it at the Ellipse speach?
Why didn't he call the guard in and anyone else needed, immediately upon the Capitol riot and break in? Why did he do NOTHING for hours and hours?
when a national guard unit is federalize the president can send in other active duty personal. There were far more then 1500 soldiers sent to the capitol, including units from Va and MD
why on earth yoj dembots think the president can. simply send military into american cities unilaterally us rather amazing
