President Trump said he’s dropping his push to deploy National Guard troops in Chicago, Los Angeles and Portland, Oregon, a move that comes after legal roadblocks hung up the effort, the AP reports.
Trump said in a social media post that he’s removing the troops for now: “We will come back, perhaps in a much different and stronger form, when crime begins to soar again – Only a question of time!”
