   > SAN FRANCISCO, Calif. - On Sunday, President Donald Trump again   
   > threatened to send National Guard troops to San Francisco, and says he   
   > may invoke the Insurrection Act to do it.   
   >   
   > Trump even suggested residents want the troops, a comment that did not   
   > go well with many across the city. Meanwhile, any timeline for a   
   > potential deployment remains unclear.   
   >   
   > "We're going to do San Francisco."   
   > In an interview on the FOX News show "Sunday Morning Futures", Trump   
   > spoke about his deployment of National Guard troops to Chicago – and   
   > suggested again that San Francisco might be next.   
   >   
   > Host Maria Bartiromo asked Trump a direct question: "Are you going to   
   > San Francisco next?"   
   >   
   > Trump responded, "We're going to go to San Francisco. The difference   
   > is I think they want us in San Francisco. San Francisco was truly one   
   > of the great cities of the world. And then 15 years ago it went wrong.   
   > It went woke."   
      
   Funny how it was "okay" when a nigger ran it and it turned to shit when   
   Newsom took over.   
      
   > "San Franciscans don't want him."   
   > But Democratic State Senator Scott Wiener of San Francisco took issue   
   > Sunday with those claims.   
   >   
   > "First of all, San Franciscans don't want him to send his personal   
   > army to occupy and invade San Francisco. We don't want that. So he   
   > needs to go away, back off. But we also know that he hates San   
   > Francisco, he hates what we represent because we support immigrants,   
   > we support LGBTQ people," said Wiener.   
      
   Scott Weiner is a carpet-bagging "weener puffer" and most decent people   
   despise pieces of shit like him.   
      
   > Trump claims that he can use the Insurrection Act to deploy the   
   > National Guard.   
   >   
   > The backstory:   
   > All this comes after Salesforce CEO Mark Benioff suggested troops   
   > could help with San Francisco Police shortages.   
   >   
   > Benioff later walked back those comments, with Mayor Daniel Lurie   
   > underscoring that SFPD has the situation handled.   
   >   
   > "We have seen crime go down in Union Square 40 percent. Crime   
   > city-wide is down 30 percent. We are at 70-year lows when it comes to   
   > homicides," said Lurie.   
   >   
   > "The city's putting their best effort in to make sure that it is safe   
   > around here. You see SFPD roaming around," said Richard Soriano, who   
   > opposes the National Guard being deployed to San Francisco.   
   >   
   > Despite those counterarguments, Trump is doubling down.   
   >   
   > "We're going to go to San Francisco, and we're going to make it great.   
   > We're going to make it great. It'll be great again. San Francisco is a   
   > great city. It won't be great if it keeps going like this," Trump said   
   > in the FOX News interview.   
   >   
   > How will this play out? Expert weighs in   
   > "I think it'll be the same as it was in Portland, the same as it was   
   > in Chicago: two different courts, and they both said that the facts on   
   > the ground do not add up to the facts necessary to invoke Section 10   
   > of the US Code or the Insurrection Act," said Steve Woolpert,   
   > professor emeritus of politics at St. Mary's College of California.   
   >   
   > "Nobody that lives here wants it."   
   > People we spoke to in Union Square say the National Guard can stay   
   > away from their city by the bay.   
   >   
   > "I don't think anybody in San Francisco actually wants it. Nobody that   
   > lives here wants it. It's just a political stunt and makes him feel   
   > good," said Ashley Brand, who opposes the National Guard in San   
   > Francisco.   
   >   
   > "Our new mayor is great and he's doing a great job, and San   
   > Franciscans are out and about. I'm sorry, it's absurd. It's just   
   > distraction," said Jeanne Himy of San Francisco. "I don't feel unsafe   
   > here. And I'm an old lady, you know.   
      
   The new mayor is doing a good job, but there are obstacles fighting him.   
   If the National Guard could shoot Nancy Pelosi and put her out of her   
   misery, or arrest her so she has a stroke in jail and dies, that would   
   acceptable. Watching her go through a trial would be good too.
