Why is Trump not sending in the National Guard in Minneapolis?

Just a question….not looking to get flamed. Its way out of hand now and these protesters need a fricking arse kickin.

I will guess because he doesn’t want to throw more gasoline on the fire by making them be forced to choose between him and tampon Tim who would call them in return.
Especially when he is far beyond the point now where he can just send in the real army

Never interfere with an enemy when they are in the process of destroying themselves…

Because despite what you read on twitter, it’s not that bad yet. No where near “summer of love” George Floyd levels.
Quit doom scrolling.

They have stolen federal guns, doxed who knows how many people, they’re interfering with the ability to execute federal law, they actively try to impede ice when they’re doing their raids of arresting an illegal, they’re causing massive property damage
I don’t care if you think it’s bad enough. It is. And it most CERTAINLY is if you read the insurrection act. It has fit the qualifiers for over a week now

Probably because local law enforcement is either weak or in on the game and Trump is sick of their crap.He wants ICE to do their jobs unobstructed.

It may be happening. Not national guard but close enough.
Two battalions from the 11th Airborne Division are on standby and may be sent to Minnesota

It’s what the rest of the country wants to see.
I am in total agreement with mark mitchell from Rasmussen. Trumps numbers aren’t low ish where they are because of what he’s done it’s because of all of the stuff he hasn’t done that people want to see. Like the left and all other criminals brutally cracked down on with severe consequences

Minneapolis doesn’t need the national guard they need a flight of A-10s.

there’s other law enforcement agencies better equipped for handling that.
calling up the insurrection act for people doxxing and throwing water balloons is retarded

Which law enforcement agencies?

Perhaps, but Tampon Timmeh won't let them.

What would happen to me if I just walked down the street in downtown Minneapolis tomorrow wearing a Freedom t-shirt?

Because of a recent SCOTUS ruling, the president can no longer federalize the National Guard. The only way he can send in the Guard for police work or security is to get the permission of the governor of that state. If he sends in the regular Army he is in violation of the Posse Comitatus Act.
The only thing he can do is to invoke the Insurrection Act, but that is politically risky most of the time. And if he does that, the ACLU will immediately sue and tie it up in the courts. It could come to a situation where the courts order the military to stand down as the case proceeds. That means they could be deployed but wouldn't be able to do anything.
So, yeah, there's nothing Trump can do here.

That is true. The big difference this time is that it is the Fed and its agents that is/are under threat. Then, it was much more citizens and private property being burned to the ground.
