Crime in DC is at a 30-year low. It's not even in top 10 dangerous cities in US. If Trump wanted to send the military into the most dangerous cities in the US, they'd be Republican cities.
Throughout history, dictators use a false pretext like this to impose government control over local law enforcement as a prelude to a more national takeover. There's more danger here than we're willing to acknowledge.
