Trump "takes back the capital" street demonstrations become more "lively By America-Today August 19 2025
US President Trump announced the deployment of the National Guard to Washington, D.C., to "stop violent crime." Previously, he called Washington, D.C., "one of the most dangerous cities in the world" and vowed to "take back the nation" and evict the homeless. In recent years, violent crime in Washington, D.C. has been at a high level, inextricably linked to unemployment, poverty, and homelessness. Some US media outlets speculate that Trump's move may be a political tactic aimed at targeting Washington, D.C., a Democratic stronghold. However, the rest of the world sees the US as being embarrassed by the fact that many of its major cities, including its capital, are "more violent than Baghdad," a nation that claims to be the world's most powerful hegemon. กก |
