President Donald Trump says that he has decided to send troops to San Francisco, California. 

The Washington Examiner reports that Trump revealed as much on Sunday.

As you can probably guess, Democrats are already outraged at the prospect. They, of course, are not interested in such things as community safety.

No, we do not. https://t.co/onY3tu2116

"We're going to go..."

Trump revealed that he is planning on sending troops to San Francisco during an interview that he did on the Fox News Channel's "Sunday Morning Futures" with host Maria Bartiromo.

"San Francisco was truly one of the great cities of the world, and then 15 years ago, it went wrong. It went woke," Trump said.

He continued, "But we’re going to go to San Francisco, and we’re going to make it great. … It’ll be great again. San Francisco’s a great city. It won’t be great if it keeps going like this."

Trump also spoke a bit about the authority that he believes he has to make such a move.

The Examiner reports:

Trump also said he can use the Insurrection Act following “fake politicians” resisting his National Guard deployment, saying half of previous presidents have used this “unquestioned power.” He added that U.S. cities must be safe and claimed cities under Democratic leadership “exclusively just about” are a “disaster.”

The legal battle continues

Trump has been attempting, with some success, to deploy U.S. service members to different parts of the country in an effort to crack down on crime. It started with the D.C. deployment, which Trump, on Sunday, said that he is "so proud" of.

Recently, Trump attempted to deploy National Guard troops to Chicago, Illinois, but the move immediately received legal pushback that resulted in a lower court federal judge blocking the deployement.

Now, however, the Trump adminsitration is taking the situation to the U.S. Supreme Court.

ABC 7 provides the reports:

The emergency appeal to the high court came after a judge prevented, for at least two weeks, the deployment of Guard members from Illinois and Texas to assist immigration enforcement. A federal appeals court refused to put the judge's order on hold.

Under this lower court order, Trump is prevent from sending National Guard troops to Chicago until at least Friday. The Trump administration, however, has appealed to the Supreme Court, asking it to overturn the lower court judge's order. At the time of this writing, the Supreme Court has yet to release its decision in the matter.
