US President Donald Trump said the National Guard will be in the Los Angeles area “until there’s no danger,” declining to put a timetable on ending the deployment amid protests over his administration’s immigration crackdown, APA reports citing CNN.
“It’s easy. Look, it’s common sense. … When there’s no danger, they’ll leave,” Trump told reporters in the Oval Office.
Trump authorized the deployment of 2,000 National Guard members on Saturday night amid intensifying protests. On Monday, he doubled that number to 4,000, and 700 Marines were mobilized – all moves the state’s Democratic leaders publicly opposed.
“You would have had a horrible situation had I not sent them in. Horrible. You’d reporting on a lot of death and a lot of destruction that’s not going to take place,” Trump said Tuesday.
