Donald Trump has national guard soldiers helping to stop homelessness in DC.
In my personal subjective view, this a very dangerous situation, as using any military for local law enforcement turns the average person into an enemy combatant. Militarized police are a stepping stone to government authoritarianism and over-reach of power.
I am NOT opposed to using the guard in actual crisis situations, such as the previous riots in LA.
I am NOT saying that homelessness is not a serious problem, or being handled by Democrats wrong.
I AM saying this is not the appropriate use of Trump's power. And homeless people sleeping in public is not the same type of violent crisis that the previous LA riots were.
He’s getting American’s used to seeing jackboots on the street, circa Germany 1935.
