President Trump has recently made headlines by threatening to send the National Guard to Chicago in response to the city's escalating crime rates. The move comes after Illinois Democrat leaders and Chicago Mayor J.B. Pritzker blasted Trump's push to deploy troops in the city.
While some Democratic leaders have criticized Trump's decision, Chicago pastor urged the president to send the National Guard in light of what he called Democrats' "outright lying about crime" in the city. Pritzker, on the other hand, stated that action would be met with a response if Trump followed through on his threat to mobilize troops.
The issue of sending the National Guard to combat crime in Chicago has divided opinions, with some praising the move as a necessary step to address the rising violence, while others express concerns about potential conflicts and the militarization of law enforcement in the city. As tensions continue to escalate, all eyes are on how this situation will unfold in the coming days.
