URGENT: Americans Overwhelmingly Reject Trump's National Guard Deployments

BREAKING NEWS: Americans Overwhelmingly Reject Trump's National Guard Deployments A new NPR-Ipsos poll reveals that a majority of Americans do not support President Trump's deployment of the National Guard to police U.S. cities, despite his claims that it is necessary to crack down on crime. According to the survey, 55% of respondents oppose the use of the National Guard in this manner, while only 31% support it. The remaining 14% are undecided or have no opinion. The deployment of the National Guard has already led to controversy, with a federal judge ruling that the practice is illegal in Los Angeles and protests erupting in Washington, D.C. where troops have been stationed since June. President Trump has defended his decision, citing concerns about crime and public safety. However, the poll suggests that Americans are not convinced by his argument, with 61% of respondents saying they are concerned about crime, but do not think deploying the National Guard is an effective solution. The survey also highlights a significant partisan divide on the issue, with 73% of Democrats opposing the deployment and 53% of Republicans supporting it. This development comes as President Trump has announced plans to expand the practice, with Memphis, Tennessee reportedly next in line for National Guard deployment. The move is likely to face further opposition from lawmakers and civil rights groups.
