You guys keep pressing this point. There should be a paper trail of this sort of request. Neither Pelosi or McConnell has to be consulted or the Sgt at Arms. Bowser would have as would the governor of Maryland who would have to supplement guard troops since the DC contingent would not have been adequate.

It could have been talked about, but if no formal request was made, then it is a brainfart. If a formal request was made and Bowser rejected, Trump could have simply federalized the guard and direct them to deploy.

There was never a "request" by either Bowser or Pelosi. Trump did offer and they refused it. The bold is where your post jumped the shark. Trump first of all cannot "federalize" the ng without permission of the Gov. of a state or mayor of DC permission. A president cannot deploy without a emergency declaration. Checks and balances for this situation were put into place for a reason.
