Local law enforcement is by city mayors and then state gov. but Trump says if you need help just say so and THE FEDS. will solve the problem quick!
That is exactly the problem with the general mode of thinking (and Trump's thinking). He is simply passing the buck, and the buck stops with the POTUS.
When there is a NATIONAL EMERGENCY AND NATIONAL LAWLESSNESS, then the President must take full control. The Left has declared war on America, and the President must respond to war on his own turf.
Indeed, he should have anticipated the destruction of America since the signs were all there even before he took office. He should have had
a very sound, comprehensive, detailed strategy,
made public in a carefully crafted Executive Order, to cover every aspect of lawlessness NATIONWIDE as it is now being reported. If the President cannot be proactive, but is always reactive, then he is not a leader.
The National Guard should have been mobilized as of January 1, 2020 and put on full alert since that was the beginning of a national medical emergency. The Leftist governors and mayors should not have had the authority to undermine the rule of law and the Constitution, and override the President. Every rioter, arsonist and looter should have been immediately stopped and put behind bars. Every monument, memorial, and statute should have had National Guards protecting them 24/7 since 2015.
Indeed drones could have been deployed throughout the nation to watch over these national treasures, and even prevent vandalism by having some armed with rubber bullets or tear gas or whatever. Drones have been used effectively in other warfare, yet we never heard of them being used to protect America internally when the Left declared war.
Do you now see how massively Trump has failed to carry out his oath of office and his responsibility?
