Donald Trump supports the deployment of the National Guard to Washington, D.C., citing a need to address rising crime rates. Scott Jennings emphasizes the necessity of crime reduction to ensure public safety, noting over 100 arrests since mid-August. Jennings questions the relevance of January 6th in the context of current law enforcement needs, asserting that public safety cannot be compromised. Julie Roginsky references the Capitol riot in her critique, highlighting Trump's previous inaction. The discussion centers on balancing enforcement and addressing historical events.
In Washington, D.C., you're gonna have to have substantial reductions in violence, substantial reductions in murder, substantial reductions in carjackings, and people are generally gonna feel like they can walk around and not be under threat all the time.
Probably not, but they're already making substantial progress. They've had over 100 arrests since August the seventh.
Because January 6th happened, should we not enforce the law today? This is a silly argument.
Okay, but you're the one using January 6th as a talking point, right? That’s just an opinion. This doesn’t change the fact that we have crime to address today.
