President Trump will send the National Guard to Memphis to address crime, supported by the mayor and governor, despite Democratic opposition.

President Donald Trump's announcement regarding the deployment of the National Guard to Memphis comes in response to crime issues in the area. He mentioned the intention to deploy the Guard in other cities controlled by Democrats, such as Chicago and New York, facing opposition from them, who accuse him of abuse of power. A recent poll showed that 80% of residents in Washington DC oppose this measure, including the Guard's control over the Metropolitan Police Department.
