Following a public exchange with Maryland Governor Wes Moore, President Donald Trump has threatened to deploy troops to Baltimore to combat what he calls a crime crisis. The president’s comments came after Governor Moore invited him to join a safety walk in the city, an invitation the president described as nasty and provocative.
According to BBC, the president stated that he would much prefer for the governor to clean up this crime disaster before he would consider visiting. Trump said, “If Wes Moore needs help, like Gavin Newscum did in L.A., I will send in the ‘troops,’ which is being done in nearby DC, and quickly clean up the crime.”
